The demonstration on Monday in Baiona has been multitudinous and loud. Thousands of people have joined the need to respond to the right-wing victory the day before. RN c´est la haine [RN herra da]; Euskal Herria Antifaxista; Bardella entzun pin pan pun; De Gaza au Pays Basque: antifasciste [From Gaza to Euskal Herria: antifaxist]... the protest has been screaming since its inception.

It has been possible to see flags of trade unions, leftist political parties and associations between a large number of their own hand-built banners. Youth has come together mainly and although the National Front has become the National Union, the National Front emmerges the National Front [Youth makes the National Front thicken] has endorsed the present generation.

As in Baiona, while demonstrations were taking place in dozens of other cities, representatives of the leftist parties met in Paris, with the aim of achieving an electoral consensus for the elections to the French Parliament and forming a unitary candidacy. Around 10 p.m. the news of unification on social networks opened. In order to cut the way to the far right, the candidature will be unique to the left in the votes of 30 June and 7 July.
