The employment recovers. A preliminary estimate of INSEE and the Ministry of Labour, 10,200 jobs were created in the first quarter 2012, an increase of 0.1% over the previous quarter.

This positive development comes after two quarters of contraction in employment. For the first time since the third quarter of 2009, the overall economy had destroyed jobs, 31,500 in the third quarter of 2011, and 22,600 in the fourth.

It was mainly the interim who had served as an adjustment variable. More than 90% destruction of items recognized in the second half of 2011 resulted from the decline in temporary jobs (34,000). In the first quarter 2012, job losses have instead been "very limited" according to INSEE, as contained in 1300 positions, a decrease of 0.2% over the previous quarter.

Over one year, the trend in employment remains slightly positive. 3000 jobs will be created, an increase of 0.1%. France had thus, in the first quarter 2012 according to a first count, 16.1 million employees.

Twitter teams, the United States, could not believe it. On Tuesday, the name of their president, Jack Dorsey, was one of the hottest topics on the microblogging platform in France.

Nothing too surprising, however: the co-founder of the website was visiting Paris to meet several presidential candidates. In the morning, Jack Dorsey visited Francois Bayrou and Francois Hollande, before holding talks with Nicolas Sarkozy.

For the microblogging platform, which begins to deploy its commercial offer, these appointments were an opportunity to push the use of social networks as part of election campaigns. Overseas, Twitter has become an essential tool to launch polemics or defuse bombs during the Republican primaries.

"Learning lessons"

Its use in the French presidential campaign is also a good way of raising its profile and its use by the general public, a prerequisite for any advertising monetization.

French candidates themselves have sought to "learn from [the experience of Jack Dorsey, Ed] to promote the development of innovative French" (with Francois Hollande), and especially mentioned the opening of an office Twitter in France. The U.S. start-up is already established in London and announced in late January, will soon open an office in Germany.

Who will be the big loser of the arrival of Free Mobile? While Orange, Bouygues and Vivendi have just published their annual results and must submit his Free Thursday, the operators have their accounts.

In only six weeks, Free Mobile would have earned 1.5 million customers, according to estimates by Stéphane Richard, CEO of France Telecom. Free for now refuses to confirm.

But everyone sees what he lost. Orange said 400,000 of its customers had left for Free Mobile. Bouygues Telecom, a quarter of customers since January parties have joined Free Mobile or 134000. SFR did not elaborate, but analysts said it could provide around 300,000 customers Free Mobile.

500,000 net new subscription

It remains to evaluate clients lost by MVNOs, network operators without these, like Virgin Mobile, La Poste Mobile, Auchan Telecom, etc.. "Some of these operators have lost heavily at the start of Free Mobile. While some have reacted very quickly, it was to stop the bleeding. They have de facto acted as shock absorbers for Orange, SFR and Bouygues, "said one analyst.

MVNOs with models based on commitment and with a strong distribution network suffered the least. And NRJ Mobile, which has 90% of customer engagement in and benefits from the network of bank branches CM-CIC, has limited the damage. The operator that displays 1.1 million customers continued to win in January, before losing around 5,000 in February. "Ultimately, MVNOs may have lost between 200,000 and 300,000 customers," said one analyst.

Summing up all these figures, Free Mobile would have earned about a million customers in the market in its various competitors. The remaining 500,000 would net creation, that is to say, new subscriptions. Given its attractive price, consumers who already have a subscription and can be subscribed to the offer 2 euros (EUR 0 Free for subscribers) as a second subscription or subscription relief.

One thing is certain: the fierce competitive battle was triggered not leave room for all operators and everyone is fighting for its survival.

The warning is timely, at a time when twenty-five countries of the eurozone summit meeting in preparing to sign a pact of brass on the return to balance their public accounts. The Netherlands, paragon of virtue budget, had to acknowledge on Thursday that public finances are sinking into the red and they can not fulfill their promise of recovery, just like Spain or Greece. The failure of the closest ally of Germany in terms of orthodoxy serves to illustrate the damage of a recession is spreading in Europe since the winter. On the first day of a summit officially devoted to research of new growth, it also confirms that this new fever deficits goes far beyond the shores of the Mediterranean.

At the Hague, the official statistics institute has sharply revised down its forecast for the next four years, a backlash slowdown in exports, a drop in traffic in Rotterdam and a housing market collapse . The Néeerlandais GDP would shrink by 0.75% in 2012 and the government deficit to rise to 4.5% mechanically. It was only in 2015 as best they could fulfill their commitment to reduce the fiscal deficit with the European standard of 3%.

The blow is severe for the minority government of Mark Rutte who must save at least € 9 billion to return to the nails. "A country that has done much to others the lesson needs to be, in time, the first to submit to collective discipline, loose a senior European official pay day loans. It's the least we can expect. " On Monday, the Dutch coalition parties will meet to negotiate a new coalition agreement, under the sign of austerity and double-locked. The far-right leader Geert Wilders, who supports the office without participating, suggests that the fate of the team Rutte is hanging by a thread in parliament.

It is also a cold shower for twenty-five heads of state and government who will initial on Friday morning, the fiscal covenant intended by Angela Merkel and Nicolas Sarkozy. This treaty, completed in a record time of 80 days, requires them to return to equilibrium, under the threat of financial sanctions. The woes of Spain, whose Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said the explosion of the deficit to 8.5% of GDP in 2011, had led to doubts about the holding of this objective. Behind the scenes dealings are already beginning to circumvent the collective discipline, at a time when the counters growth fall below zero. Mariano Rajoy arrived yesterday in Brussels with the intention to overcome, at least in 2012, the deficit limit imposed by the euro area. José Manuel Barroso, the head of the EU executive, and Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the Eurogroup, make it known publicly that there is no question of giving. The question is whether this line can hold when the list gets longer capitals hit by the recession.
