first meeting of the New Popular Front

The first meeting of the New Popular Front brought together around a hundred supporters, to whom Olivier Faure, first secretary of the Socialist Party, promised “to remain united until victory”. From Montreuil (Seine-Saint-Denis), several leaders of the New Popular Front called for the unity of the left. The speeches follow one another and carry the same message of unity against the extreme right.

“We are the majority, but deep down we have forgotten it. But we woke up, we remembered who we are“, assures Clémentine Autain, emancipation candidate. This meeting was held against a backdrop of disagreement after the decision of the rebellious leaders not to renew the investiture of his rebels. These tensions worry some supporters. The former rebellious deputy Alexis Corbière n He was thus not invested, but François Ruffin gave him his support during a speech.
