It is time for recovery: the different left breath formations open the ball back this week. As of this Thursday, August 21, the rebellious France (LFI) brings together its activists in Châteauneuf-Sur-Isre, near Valence, where she took their habits, while environmentalists are in Strasbourg.
The next day, it will be the turn of the French Communist Party (PCF) to do the same in Montpellier, before the Socialist Party returned to Blois the following Thursday.
Either the same week as the “Uniters”, which consist of several former rebels (Alexis Corbière, Clémentine Tutain, François Ruffin …) and members of the generation party, including its founder Benoît Hamon. The latter will meet in Châteaudun in Eure-Et-Loir.
Head on Censorship, what about the social movement?
If all left parties are organized in dispersed order, as usual for these returns, everyone faces at least a common problem: how to organize in the coming weeks to fight against the austerity cure that François Bayrou during the next budget?
In this little game, the rebel gave the answer faster than the others. An immediate objective in his eyes: overthrow the government. Two means to achieve this: present a motion of censure as quickly as possible, as such, LFI requests the opening of an extraordinary session of Parliament so as not to wait until the end of September, and support the blocking movement of September 10.
Trained in social networks in particular reaction the budget cuts sought by the Executive, which represent almost 44 billion euros, its objective is to “block everything” in France on September 10, either through the general strike or stop consuming.
In his text announcing support for the movement, published by the Tribune on Sunday of this weekend, Jean-Luc Mélenchon and several rebel officials urge their supporters to “immediately put the service of local groups that offer this mobilization and do everything for their success.”
The other parts of the left are also beginning to show their support for the September 10 movement. Yes, for support, but with the condition that is done for “respect” and without “recovery,” said Marine Tondelier, the National Secretary of Environmental, during an interview with Liberation on Wednesday.
For its part, the PCF also supported the movement this Wednesday, August 20, assured the Léon Deffontaines to the AFP. “We will call to participate in all mobilizations against the Bayrou -10 project on September 10. We will support the movement, we will be involved,” said the former candidate for Europeans.
As for the PS, the question has not yet been officially decided. “We observe, we look at what is happening, sometimes with kindness in the demands related to social justice, but we are not there to be before the social movement,” the socialist deputy Arthur Delaporte said on Monday, preferring to wait for words of the Union.
What course for municipal and presidential elections?
In addition to the beginning of the political and social year, these summer universities will allow the various left parties to establish the limit for the next electoral deadlines: the municipal elections in 2026 and the presidential elections in 2027.
Great supporters of a left union for the Elysea race, Marine Tondelier environmentalists offer a “political plenary” this Thursday together with the first secretary of PS Olivier Faure, but also of the communist Igor Zamichier and the rebel Alma Dufour.
