Jean-Luc Mélenchon is looking for a rally to those that need to be part of this system of La France insoumise (LFI), within the occasion of an early presidential election that he’s calling for.
“We are in favor of a joint candidacy. We said it to each other ten times, based on the program. And as we go with the program, well, whoever wants comes, they are welcome”launched throughout a speech to activists in Paris, Friday November 29, the LFI chief who needs the resignation of President Emmanuel Macron.
“We understood that (…) the Communist Party no longer wants us, we have understood that the right of the Socialist Party no longer wants [de nous] and we refuse to go our way with people who insult us along the way”he added. The chief, already a presidential candidate thrice, proposed a “federal offer” has “those who want” be part of LFI to “to run a joint candidacy for the presidential election”.
“The charade which consists of coming to each election to take constituencies and chip away at the program is over”he warned.
Disagreement on the technique to comply with
These declarations come at a time when the specter of censorship hangs over the Barnier authorities, however the varied left-wing events don’t appear to agree on the route to comply with. LFI criticizes the socialists for wanting to succeed in out to the presidential camp, and thus bury the New Popular Front.
On Sunday, the chief of the socialist deputies, Boris Vallaud, pleaded for a dialogue between all events, except the National Rally, to “raise the question of the conditions for non-censorship”which might essentially contain compromises. At the top of October, the boss of the Communist Party, Fabien Roussel, who misplaced his seat as deputy for the North in June, argued that if he have been to run once more, “it would not be in an alliance with LFI”.
The varied candidacies on the left throughout the 2022 presidential election had decreased Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s probabilities of reaching the second spherical of the presidential election.
