As reported Liberationthis Monday, December 16, a close collaborator of Raphaël Glucksmann abandons her Place Publique party after years of disappointment and strategic misunderstanding.
Raphaël Glucksmann gradually let go by his collaborators? The MEP and co-founder of Place Publique, created in 2018, has just lost his party’s national youth co-referent. As revealed Liberation Monday December 16, it is Anaïta David, who announced her resignation the day before after having been “drunk” by the attitude of the politician. It is no longer in phase with the internal functioning and the increasingly widening gap with the New Popular Front. Frankly, she explained that she “I wanted to leave as soon as the negotiations around the NFP and the lack of goodwill from Place Publique to participate in them”.
With hindsight, the collaborator of Léa Salamé’s companion noted the distance of the co-president of the party supposed, at first glance, to fight against the division of the left and his speeches considered problematic with regard to the values conveyed. “But from now on, we are no longer in the decisions of the NFP. There are no internal consultations: the position of Place Publique is that of Glucksmann”, declared Anaïta David to explain her departure from the party, which seems to have been carefully decided. She thus added, probably also targeting other employees of Place Publique: “And then his interviews where he hits all the party leaders, it’s distressing. Everyone has forgotten a little that we were created to unite the left.”

Three years of experience within Place Publique
However, it had been a year since she was the emblematic personality of the Young People of the party and three years that she had worked for the latter. But the absence of “goodwill” which she attributes to Raphaël Glucksmann convinced her to leave since she gradually felt that he was the only one to hold the reins of Place Publique while the party originally wanted “shake up the political field”. Anaïta David now intends to join Génération.s, Benoît Hamon’s party, which was founded in 2017, specifies Liberation.
