Manuel Bompard Urges Leftist Allies to Reject Coalition with Macron
Manuel Bompard, coordinator of La France Insoumise, has warned members of the Nouveau Front Populaire negotiating with Emmanuel Macron to reconsider their approach, stating that forming a coalition with Macron’s supporters would fracture the movement. He criticized the potential appointment of François Bayrou as Prime Minister, arguing it would represent a continuation of Macron’s policies. Bompard emphasized that a commitment to avoid the 49.3 procedure under a government led by right-wing or macronist leaders is not a genuine victory for the left.
