“I can see that for several days, some people like Mr. Glucksmann, or in the Socialist Party, are trying to use any pretext to fracture the unity of the New Popular Front.”tackles Manuel Bompard, deputy and national coordinator of La France insoumise on franceinfo Friday August 23. “Some in the Socialist Party are more interested in preparing the next Socialist Party congress than in preparing the next government of France”he says ironically.
The head of the PS-Place publique list for the European elections stated on Tuesday in an interview with Pointthat the left had to give up the “radicality” and that she agrees to “negotiate compromises” to be able to govern, which supposes “turn the page on Macron and Mélenchon”. “Raphaël Glucksmann, from the beginning, distanced himself from the New Popular Front,” estimates Manuel Bompard, on franceinfo. “I have the impression that he is more concerned about the post-Mélenchon period. What interests me is the post-Macron period,” he continues.
Manuel Bompard recalls that La France Insoumise does not want “coalition government”, but “a government whose objective is to implement the program of the New Popular Front”The Bouches-du-Rhône MP adds that if the NFP can form a government, there will always be “a classic parliamentary shuttle and our legal texts will have to take into account the balances which exist in the assemblies”.
