During an interview with several media, including The eveningFrançois Hollande, elected under the NFP label, is already considering a “confrontation of the two lefts” for the 2027 presidential election, he who has always opposed a joint candidacy on the left.
Is François Hollande already preparing for the 2027 presidential election? Far from being discreet since his election as deputy for Corrèze, the former head of state makes multiple declarations and invites himself onto the sets of television channels. And François Hollande is already seeing far. Very far even until 2027, where he has already laid the groundwork for the left for the presidential election. From several media, including The eveningthe former tenant of the Élysée thus estimated that the presidential election “will be the moment of confrontation of the two lefts“, namely the reformist left and the radical left.
A position far from being unanimous within the New Popular Front which wishes to see a joint candidacy to avoid an electoral setback. “The confrontation of the two lefts is the assured defeat of the left“, estimated the PS deputy Laurent Baumel. An opinion shared by the Génération.s deputy Benjamin Lucas, who estimated that the “theory of irreconcilable lefts“allowed Emmanuel Macron to remain in power.”There is an urgent need to deepen the NFP, not to dismantle it“, he added.
François Hollande ready to extricate himself from the NFP?
Elected during the last legislative elections under the NFP label, François Hollande could be tempted to get rid of it as 2027 approaches. Last September 15 on LCI, the former president made known his opposition to a joint candidacy left. He had, moreover, affirmed that today there existed a radical left and a reformist left, the latter “must be the first“.
As he continues to work with the National Secretary of the Ecologists, Marine Tondelier, and others, PS First Secretary Olivier Faure called on François Hollande not to make the wrong target, explaining that 2027 will be “maybe“time”of the confrontation with the right and the extreme right“. As for Raquel Garrido, the former rebel made a post on X (ex-Twitter): “Help, it’s back to 2012!“, she mocked.
