No bulletins or posters
Behind this collective, the idea is to do better with less, give meaning to life, without necessarily over-consuming and over-exploiting our resources, rethink our model of society, our relationship with the territories and those around us
summarizes Nicolas Vitasse, originally from Angevin.
They did not print any ballot papers or posters: We are at a turning point, the situation is serious. We must not disperse our voices, we must vote usefully in our soul and conscience. Our candidacy just serves to sow a little seed in people’s heads
