Vis-a-vis the Yellow Vest, the government releases ballast on urban toll and the label heavyweights
The chance makes the things sometimes well. Infull dissatisfaction of the Yellow Vest, theMinister for Transport Elisabeth Borne presentsthis Monday, November 26 his government bill oforientation of mobilities (LOM) which aimsat improving displacements and to make themless polluting. A whole program, which entersobviously in resonance with the social movementagainst the fuel taxes and the tax injusticewhich has shaken the country for one week.
In this particular context, Le Monde announced this Sunday the 25th at the beginning of evening that the urban toll, initiallyenvisaged in the LOM, did not appear in it any more, “because of the low number ofcommunities to have expressed their interest to use this tool”. As for the label heavyweights, it is deferred, as the daily newspaper of the eveningbrings it back which could consult the text andevokes a “backpedalling” of the government.
Initially announced for spring, the LOM wasseveral times delayed, in particular because of the railway reform. In the context of themobilization of the Yellow Vest, it envisagesmoreover several measurements in favour themterritories to answer a population which feels“abandoned.” “The ecological transition should not penalize the French most modest”,explains to the JDD (paying link) the minister whopromises to give “concrete answers everywhere.”
A plan which will be, undoubtedly, scanned withattention by the Yellow Vest and the elected officials who do not cease denouncing theabandonment of the territories. It is besides inarea, and relatively far from the big cities whichthe movement of the Yellow Vest draws itsforce. The successive mobilizations show indeedthat the mobilization is stronger in the territoriesthan in Marseilles, Lyon where Paris, where act IIof the movement was marked by a limitedmobilization this Saturday, November 24.
Elisabeth Borne speaks with the territories
Three days before the first gatherings of the Yellow Vest, Elisabeth Borne drew up ashouting report besides. “The lack of solutions ofmobility is lived today like a source of inequalities,injustice and fractures between the citizens andthe territories”, she explained on November 14th,by submitting her text to the Economic council,social and environmental. An analysis recoverysince by the members of the government who say“to hear” the anger of the Yellow Vestwithout no measurement of width being however announced for the moment.
For Elisabeth Borne, it is thus necessary “to accompany our fellow-citizens who are stilldependent on the individual car, dependent onhis cost”, and thus “to accompany the elected officials and the territories to allow them to offeralternative solutions to the individual use of thecar.” And this, “to leave fossil energies gradually.”
Then to meet these aims Elisabeth Borne intendsto put “the package on the territories.” The firstmeasurement revealed in the columns of theSunday newspaper: “50% of means in to more give in state the railway network” and aninvestment “to height of 2.6 billion to increase theoffer of daily train where it needs it most there”.
The course of the ecological Transition
She also intends “to simplify the life” of thecommunes and the areas by re-examining theconstraining legal framework who organizestransport. And the minister to also recall the “planof opening-up” of the road network to a total value of 1 billion euros over ten years. On the whole,the minister promises to invest “40% of more intransport” in the territories over all the five-year period.
Not question, however to return about theecological course displayed by the government.Its plan is in particular used “to leave the wholeTGV” which led the citizens to the “all-car”, muchmore pollutant.
Thus the minister does not wish that thegovernment reconsider the tax carbon, nor whichit organizes a moratorium on the next rises. “Weare engaged in a trajectory necessary, thereforewe will not call it in question”, she estimated. Inthe columns of the JDD, Elisabeth Borne confirmsfor example the objective of the government to prohibit the sale of cars with petrol and the dieselby 2040. “This law will give the tools to reach that point, at the same time by supporting thealternatives to the car and by encouraging theclean vehicles with the bonus to conversion”, shepromises.
Concerned not to put the truck drivers in thestreet with the Yellow Vest, Elisabeth Bornestates in addition that the fate of the labelheavyweights is not fixed yet. “It is a sensitive topic”, she admits, by taking the example of thegreen tax. A device removed under precedingfive-year period because of dissatisfaction by thered bonnets. “Initially, the creation of this labelwas to however be announced before the Council of Ministers devoted to the LOM for an installationin 2020”, Le Monde notes.
