“The Socialist Party (PS) government will press on with a wide-ranging reform of the public sector that has delivered notable budget savings. But the pace of change will slow as the political focus shifts to elections towards end of 2009 and the prospect of more anti-reform protests becomes less palatable. The PS is well placed to exploit opposition weakness and win re-election. The economy will suffer amid a wider EU and global slump.”
