French PM says there will be majority to vote pension reform

French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne on Tuesday said she was confident there would be a majority in parliament to vote a reform that will see the French work two years more to 64 before being entitled to a pension.

"A majority exists, which refuses to finance pensions with more taxes (...)," she told the lower house of parliament.

President Emmanuel Macron's camp does not have an absolute majority in the lower house of parliament and depends on the vote of lawmakers from other groups.
