French MPs demand more Sunday opening
France must go further in relaxing laws to allow more shops to open on Sundays, a group of 20 MPs from President Macron’s LREM party has said.

In an article in Le Journal du Dimanche they said: “Many 鶹ýӳ want this”, adding that London, Rome and Madrid have all understood the necessity of allowing Sunday opening [Berlin, however, retains a strictly traditional approach].
They said it attracts tourists and boosts business.
“The time has come for us to catch up and offer comparable services,” they said. This would also “revitalise city centres”, the MPs said.
The group said that reforms Mr Macron instigated as finance minister in 2015 which allowed Sunday and late-night opening in “international tourist zones” had been a success but the time had come to go further so traditional businesses could compete against internet retailers.
