Editorial: Liberation

• The movement of Jean-Luc Mélenchon shows no intentions of collaboration or ruling according to the messages from 'LFI' leaders.
• The candidacy of Laurence Tubiana has been strongly rejected by 'LFI' due to its closeness to François Hollande and Emmanuel Macron.
• Socialists have also objected the candidacy of Huguette Bello. Despite having agreed to withdraw the candidacy of Olivier Faure in favour of Laurence Tubiana, LFI continues to reject any candidacy not coming from their own faction.
• It is suggested that 'LFI' is ignoring the expected government following legislative elections to focus on the presidential elections that Jean-Luc Mélenchon is likely to seek.
• Left needs to unite and agree on a single name for Prime Minister. If not, they may be handing an advantage to the current president.

Conclusion: The recent reactions from 'LFI' leaders indicate they are focused on the Presidential elections of 2027 and are ignoring the coalition of leftists and their voters. It is crucial that they come to a consensus on a candidate for the post of Prime Minister to avoid handing an advantage to the current president.
