France after the elections

Discussion introduced by Penny Duggan of the New AntiCapitalist Party

The outcome of the"third round" of the presidential elections on 19 June has suddenly become exciting. The New Popular, Ecological and Social Union (NUPES), the electoral coalition led by Jean Luc Mélenchon, could be the largest opposition group in Parliament. Melanchon narrowly missed being in the second round of the presidential elections. Now, NUPES is neck and neck in the polls with Macron's coalition.

The election of NUPES deputies who break with neoliberalism offers hope and gives confidence to renew the fight for social, economic and climate justice.
