Macron initiates labour market reforms
31st August 2017
This is potentially an important juncture for supply-side policies in the French economy as Macron announces plans to improve the flexibility of the French labour market. Union opposition is more or less guaranteed, but Macro was elected on a programme of reform. Perhaps his charming Black lab might play a key role in the trickier political negotiations? Without that, Macron has the support of the CEO of L'Oreal!
