Yesterday, the National Council of the French Socialist Party approved the entry into the New Green and Social Public Front for the June legislative elections. After a warm debate, they agree to enter the new "popular front", with 62.3% of votes in favour.
They want to deal with the rise of ultra-right and conservative forces, with the aim of winning the elections and turning Jean-Luc Mélenchon into Prime Minister.
