That dubious honor belongs to our neighbors, our French colleagues, according to Professor Samuel Jequier , who therefore titles his forum in Liberation (May 6, 2021) “The stupidest left in the world.” With one year left until the French presidential elections, everything seems to indicate that, unless a surprise candidate emerges, the first two places will go to Macron and Le Pen. Again Emmanuel Macron , leader of La République en Marche (LREM), the political platform he created to win the previous elections and the leader of Rassemblement National (RN, formerly FN), Marine Le Pen , head of the French extreme right that does not was far from victory in 2017. The latest polls show a “technical tie” between Le Pen (25/28%) and Macron (24/27%) and more and more people predict that Le Pen will win in the first round and Macron in the second…with the votes of the rest of the political arc including the fragmented left.
Marine Le Pen has moderated her movement (the cordon sanitaire against RN is under discussion) compared to the period of her father and founder of the FN Jean Marie Le Pen, while Macron has turned to the right to attract Les Républicains (LR) , the party that was Sarkozy 's and the decaffeinated heir of Gaullism. Meanwhile, the French left is dizzy from going back and forth to nowhere. Its historical plurality is not the problem, since sometimes it was not an obstacle to unity, but rather the apparent lack of memory of the current Belgium Mobile Number List leaders. They have not learned from past defeats. Especially what happened in the 2002 presidential elections when they came so divided that the socialist prime minister, Lionel Jospin , after honest, effective and very progressive work, could not get past third place. Instead of everyone uniting around him, each family of the socialist, communist, Trotskyist, green, alter-globalist left, etc.
presented his candidate and some two. The most bloody thing is that Chirac was clearly despondent because he was in low times; the left had won the parliamentary elections in the middle of the term; he had governed well (the famous cohabitation); Jospin would have moved on to the second shift easily. Chirac only obtained 19% of the votes in the first round (Le Pen Sr. 17%) and so that the FN did not win, people from the center and left had to go and vote for him. Jospin retired from politics. The leader of the La France Insoumise ( FI) party, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, has a voting intention of around 10%. He was a member of the socialist party for many years, from which he left and later he was supported by the PCF as an independent, but as soon as he could he set up a separate business. Oh, the poor communists, as veteran as we are and they always beat us up! At 71 years of age, Mélenchon has held positions since 1983, councilor, deputy, senator, MEP, minister...he only has the throne of the Republic left and now he is hindered by the hammer and sickle although the PCF does not display it even in the headline of L'Humanité, which is no longer its official organ.
