Anne Hidalgo still advocates the rally on the left

For Gilles Candar, historian and specialist on French lefts, Anne Hidalgo is determined in her desire for a rally of the left for the next presidential election: “Will that solve the problem? I’m afraid not. different candidates are roughly on the same line. We already know that this is not the case for Jean-Luc Mélenchon and Fabien Roussel. We know that the problem arises above all between environmentalists and socialists. ‘There is a disagreement between environmentalists and socialists on this issue. “

According to Gilles Bornstein, this determination hides a weakness. “She was a candidate first, it didn’t really disturb the system. Then, seeing that her candidacy was not taking, she appealed to the left primary. The refusal was clear on the part of everyone. There, she comes to raise the tone, telling Yannick Jadot by saying that he is completely irresponsible. By refusing the primary, he would refuse the means to have a united social and ecological candidacy “, reports Gilles Bornstein.
