The French presidential election campaign for May 2027 is underway. Hundreds of thousands of school students have taken centre-stage in opposition to Macron’s austerity.
The government has reacted with huge repression: the worst in many decades; worse than May 68.
These teenagers not only experienced police violence, but also many were subjected to racist insults by police officers.
After its historic electoral breakthrough in the recent municipal elections, La France Insoumise (LFI) has adopted its political Roadmap for the 2027 presidential election.
It is proposing to unite a broad coalition around a programme of radical change or rupture – with opposition to austerity, racism and war at the heart of that programme.
The most predominant racism in France since WWII accompanied and followed the Algerian War of Independence, 1954-1961; to be more accurate, we should say a deep hatred towards Algerians and by extension towards all Arabs.
Macron has abused his constitutional rights as no president has done during the 5th Republic – imposing his policies by decree.
As Melenchon said, Bayrou fell, and now it is Macron who is on the front line against the people. He must go!
The course Starmer, Macron and Merz have opened, the reimposition of all sanctions and embargos on Iran, if not blocked, will have two consequences. Firstly, it is certain to assault the living standards, welfare, and life expectancy of over ninety million Iranians. Secondly, it is most likely to trigger a new war on Iran.
LFI is calling on the left to unite behind the demand for Macron’s resignation. The president has lost his legitimacy, his core policy of austerity is opposed by the overwhelming majority.
