In a parl debate today, 🇫🇷 minister
@CaVautrin
said Paris had not voted against the
#platformwork
file, only "expressed reservations"
"At this point, final adoption has not yet taken place"
Technically correct but... so what?
Paris is in effect sidelined, and lost EU battle

The 🇧🇪 presidency is edging slightly closer to 🇫🇷’s demands in a new version of the
#Platformwork
Directive, obtained by
@Euractiv
- bringing back critical provisions that are close to Paris’s heart.
Could that just about make the cut for a Council deal?
