Olivier Véran Steps Back from Politics After Recent Defeat
Olivier Véran, the former spokesperson for Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne and ex-Minister of Health, announced he will not run in the upcoming legislative by-election in Isère. Following his loss to Hugo Prévost in July, Véran expressed a desire to step back from politics after 12 years of service, emphasizing that this is not a permanent farewell. He will support Camille Galliard-Minier, his former substitute, as a candidate. Meanwhile, La France Insoumise has nominated Lyes Louffok, a children’s rights activist, to fill the seat vacated by Prévost, who faces serious allegations.
