French presidential race largely unaffected by unrest, first post-riot poll shows
Far-right front-runner Marine Le Pen is still ahead of the pack, and far-left candidate Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon remains in a close race for second place.
Under fire over protests, MĂ©lenchon stands by split with rest of French political spectrum
Throughout the weekend, Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon and his radical-left party, La France Insoumise, criticized the French government‘s crisis management of the protests on Saturday, October 17, and the violence surrounding them. As peaceful demonstrations where LFI supporters again turned out in strength overlapped with violence and looting, LFI continued its strategy of direct confrontation with the authorities, even at the risk of deepening its rift with the rest of the political class and some voters who hold them responsible for the unrest.
Tout pouvoir redoute les rĂ©voltes de la jeunesse. â Interview pour Centre Presse
(October 9, 2026)
Je nâimagine pas cette campagne prĂ©sidentielle comme le simple Ă©noncĂ© dâun programme, mais surtout comme un choix des principes de vie en sociĂ©tĂ©. Cette mĂ©thode nous a dĂ©jĂ permis dâacquĂ©rir une capacitĂ© de rassemblement qui surprend les commentateurs. Dans les analyses fournies Ă propos de notre succĂšs, on parle de qui nous sommes, comment nous agissons, comment nous faisons campagne, nos capacitĂ©s techniques Ă faire campagne⊠Beaucoup voient bien que nous sommes toute une Ă©quipe, au contraire de tous nos concurrents. Mais ce nâest pas ça la leçon essentielle de nos succĂšs. Elle est ailleurs, dans la rĂ©ponse Ă la question : dans quel Ă©tat dâesprit est le peuple français. Que se passe-t-il dans la sociĂ©tĂ© dont nous sommes lâĂ©cho ? Aussi bien quand des jeunes acclament les dĂ©putĂ©s Insoumis qui viennent les voir dans leur facultĂ© ou leur lycĂ©e, ce qui est sans prĂ©cĂ©dent.
France‘s fed-up youth: Can presidential candidates connect with student movement?
Only one party has sided vocally with the students since the very start: Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon‘s far-left France Unbowed.
We ask whether that will consolidate his second place in the polls ahead of next spring‘s presidential elections. That would qualify MĂ©lenchon for the May 2 run-off against the far right‘s Marine Le Pen.
La Bastille est reprise. DĂ©monstration puissante de la jeunesse qui porte ses revendications de la plus belle façon qui soit ! FiertĂ© immense. Rendez-vous mardi 13 octobre Ă l‘appel des syndicats de jeunes et des salariĂ©s.

MĂ©lenchon declares âBastille retakenâ after major student rally in Paris
The storming of the Bastille in 1789 marked a major turning point in the French Revolution and became a symbol of the peopleâs resistance to royal authority.
The leader of France Unbowed and his allies have been accused by their opponents of stoking unrest and manipulating young people for political gain. MĂ©lenchon has rejected these criticisms, underlining that despite the fact that his party supports the protests, they were independently launched by students.
The student and professional union coalition has called for another day of protests and strikes on 13 October, with a further major mobilisation planned for 17 October.

Pour la suspension de lâaccord dâassociation UE-IsraĂ«l et la fin de la complicitĂ© de lâEurope dans le gĂ©nocide en Palestine
(January 13, 2026)
Notre demande est simple : lâUnion europĂ©enne doit mettre un terme au commerce et Ă sa coopĂ©ration privilĂ©giĂ©e avec IsraĂ«l en suspendant totalement lâaccord dâassociation !
Avec ses partenaires de lâAlliance de Gauche europĂ©enne et en lien avec les associations, ONG, syndicats mobilisĂ©s contre le gĂ©nocide en Palestine, la France insoumise lance une Initiative Citoyenne EuropĂ©enne (ICE) pour obliger la Commission europĂ©enne Ă enfin agir.
Pour aboutir, elle doit recueillir au moins 1 million de signatures dans au moins 7 pays de lâUE. RĂ©cemment, des initiatives initiatives europĂ©ennes pour garantir le droit Ă lâavortement partout en Europe et pour interdire les thĂ©rapies de conversion contre les personnes LGBTI ont rĂ©coltĂ© suffisamment de signatures pour contraindre la Commission europĂ©enne Ă se saisir du sujet. Nous pouvons faire de mĂȘme pour la Palestine !
Face Ă lâhorreur, ne dĂ©tournons pas les yeux. Unissons-nous pour demander justice pour la Palestine et la fin Ă la complicitĂ© de lâUE dans le gĂ©nocide !
Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon rally in Saint-Denis
Streamed live on Jun 7, 2026
Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon spoke at the national rally launching the 2027 presidential campaign in Saint-Denis on June 7, 2026.
Seine Gegner haben ihn abgeschrieben â doch Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon gibt nicht auf
(June 29, 2026)
»Meine Damen und Herren, Genossinnen und Genossen â hier ist Ihr Kandidat fĂŒr die PrĂ€sidentschaftswahl 2027: Jean-Luc MĂ©lenchon!,« schallte es ĂŒber die StraĂen von Saint-Denis. Anfang des Monats trafen Zehntausende in der Stadt nordöstlich von Paris zusammen. Trotz der brennenden Sonne waren sie gekommen, um den Linken MĂ©lenchon beim Start seines Wahlkampfs fĂŒr die PrĂ€sidentschaftswahl 2027 zu erleben.
Es war eine eindrucksvolle Demonstration der Wahlkampfmaschinerie, die MĂ©lenchon seit seiner ersten Kandidatur 2012 aufgebaut hat. Damals hatte er die Parti Socialiste (PS) verlassen, um links von ihr seinen eigenen Weg zu gehen.
French Elites Face a Mamdani Moment of Their Own
(July 1, 2026)
Franceâs 2027 presidential election is increasingly looking like a shoo-in for the far right, or at least a hard-fought scrape by the center. But what if something closer to a âMamdani momentâ is in store?
Garde Ă vue de Rima Hassan : comment des policiers ont pistĂ© lâeurodĂ©putĂ©e
VisĂ©e par une enquĂȘte pour apologie de terrorisme ouverte le 27 mars 2026, la dĂ©putĂ©e europĂ©enne LFI a fait face Ă une dĂ©bauche de moyens policiers. Sa ligne tĂ©lĂ©phonique a Ă©tĂ© tracĂ©e pour consigner tous ses dĂ©placements depuis le 1er janvier. « Il nâexiste aucune justification Ă ces mesures », sâindigne son avocat.
France under fire over alleged surveillance of pro-Palestine MEP
Hassan had been under surveillance since January 2026, with authorities reportedly geolocating her phone and closely tracking her movements and daily schedule, reported Mediapart, a French investigative online newspaper.
Opposition lawmakers have condemned the alleged surveillance as a âstate scandal.â
Antoine Leaument, a lawmaker from the left-wing party La France Insoumise (LFI), called on Justice Minister Gerald Darmanin to provide an immediate explanation regarding the claims.
Questions persist over prosecution of radical-left French MEP Rima Hassan for ‚condoning terrorism‘
(April 4, 2026)
On Thursday, expressions of support came almost entirely from LFI and the far-left. For the anti-capitalist NPA, Olivier Besancenot expressed his âsolidarity with Rima Hassanâ on X, as did Nathalie Arthaud, the spokesperson for the Trotskyist Lutte ouvriĂšre (LO).
Two former LFI members, Alexis CorbiĂšre and ClĂ©mentine Autain, also spoke out. âA member of the European Parliament placed in police custody for a retweet? Freedom of expression applied selectively is not the Republic,â said the latter. âThe disproportionate repression of expressions of support for Palestine is clear, it must stop,â wrote the former.
On Friday, a handful of elected representatives from other parties began to join the chorus of criticism, including the communist MP Elsa Faucillon, who deplored a ârelentless campaign revealing the mobilisation of the state apparatus against any solidarity with Palestineâ and the Green MP Benjamin Lucas, who denounced âdouble standardsâ. Another Green MP, Sandrine Rousseau, expressed her âsupportâ for Rima Hassan.
More surprisingly, the socialist MEP ChloĂ© Ridel, a close ally of the Socialist Party leader Olivier Faure, also commented: âEverything about the police custody imposed on the European Member of Parliament Rima Hassan is disproportionate and violates her parliamentary immunity, whatever our disagreements. Was Louis Sarkozy [editor‘s note, son of former president Nicolas Sarkozy and a political commentator] placed in custody when he said about Palestinians âlet them all dieâ?â
Rima Hassan: »Die Mission ist zutiefst politisch«
Israel hat heute frĂŒh 12 Personen auf dem Schiff »Madleen« festgenommen, die versuchten, die Belagerung des Gazastreifens zu durchbrechen. Wir sprachen mit einer von ihnen, La France Insoumise-Abgeordnete Rima Hassan, nur Stunden vor ihrer Verhaftung.
French PM Bayrou uses special constitutional powers to force 2025 budget through parliament
French Prime Minister François Bayrou used special executive powers on Monday to force his governmentâs 2025 budget through parliament without a vote. France‘s hard-left France Unbowed (LFI) party has said it will put forward a no-confidence motion which is likely to take place on Wednesday.
Frankreich: Bayrou setzt Haushalt per Sonderartikel durch
Artikel 49.3 der französischen Verfassung ermöglicht unter anderem die Verabschiedung eines Haushalts ohne Abstimmung in der Nationalversammlung, wenn die Regierung ein anschlieĂendes Misstrauensvotum ĂŒbersteht. Die linke Partei La France Insoumise (LFI) hat bereits angekĂŒndigt, ein solches Votum zu beantragen. Sollte eine Mehrheit der Abgeordneten der Regierung das Vertrauen entziehen, wĂ€re auch der Haushalt durchgefallen.
Dies gilt jedoch als unwahrscheinlich, da die Sozialisten sich hinter die Mitte-Rechts-Regierung stellen wollen: kein einziger Abgeordneter wolle fĂŒr den Antrag der LFI stimmen, hieĂ es in der Fraktion der Sozialisten.
Netanyahu violating state sovereignty with complicity of US, Europe: French MP
âAppalled by the scale of the ongoing massacre in Lebanon,â Jean-Luc Melenchon, a left-wing French politician and a former Member of the European Parliament, said in a post on X.
âNetanyahu is violating the sovereignty of states throughout the region with the complicity of Europe and the USA. The genocide in Gaza is spreading without limits.â
French protesters rage at âstolen electionâ as Macron picks conservative Barnier for PM
Amid cries of âMacron Out!, Resign Macron!â leftist demonstrators gathered in the autumn sun in their thousands to protest against French President Emmanuel Macronâs decision to appoint the veteran conservative prime minister, rather than a candidate from among their ranks.
While falling short of an absolute majority, the left-wing coalition the New Popular Front (NFP) (made up of the Greens, the Socialists, the Communists and the hard-left France Unbowed) won the most votes in the July 7 snap poll.

Italyâs Election Is Dominated by Postfascists â but the Left Is Raising Its Head
In this carousel of Italian politics, the Left has remained out of the picture for too long. It has not been in parliament since 2008, with the exception of small lists in alliance with the Partito Democratico or MPs who quit other parties. It has thus been fourteen years since an independent left has had its own parliamentary representation in Italy. It is an even greater tragedy if we remember that Italy once had the largest Communist Party in Western Europe and a Left whose presence extended from social movements and trade unions to the world of culture.
This time, however, something has moved. With the launch of Unione Popolare, the Italian left is trying to reorganize itself to return to the political scene.
Schwere Macron-Niederlage: Französisches Parlament schmettert Covid-Gesetze ab
Die französische Opposition konnte sich in der Nacht auf Mittwoch im Parlament gegen die Regierung durchsetzen. Weite Teile des Covid-Gesetzes wurden damit verhindert. Die gesetzliche Möglichkeit, den GrĂŒnen Pass in Frankreich wieder einzufĂŒhren, konnte damit abgewendet werden. Eine herbe Niederlage fĂŒr Macron.
