You know Nazis also despise the left and would do anything to put you in camps if they could. They are not allies. You are falling in the exact trap described by this article, trying to attract leftists on the few subjects they appear to have in common to make the Nazis appear normal or even allies.

France is making a large part of its own defense system (fighter jet, navy ships, etc.) and for it to be financially viable, sells some models to other countries. One very good client is Saudi Arabia. You will never hear criticism from this government against Saudis.

One crazy idea: tax kerosene and use this to fund this ticket which will now also have TGV 😅

tycho , 9 months ago to world in French rail pass: €49 ticket to launch after German success

From the article:

The pass will also cover local bus, metro, and tram travel, “if possible,” Beaune said. The full details have not yet been finalised.

Of course, I’m not particularly confident that they will actually cover this but at least they are thinking about it.

To be frank, I’m amazed by this announcement. I take TER every weekend and a two-way trip is 108€, 54€ (-50%) if you get the yearly pass which costs 30€. This would save me so much money.

Yes it doesn’t encompass TGV but with this 49€ ticket you can potentially get rid of many car commuters which is already a good thing :)

Abortion is decriminalised, so it’s still not legal but it falls under civil law which is not as harsh as criminal law.

Edit: I misread the article, you can legally get an abortion at federal health facilities. I don’t know about state health facilities.
