TheAltWorld How France’s Left-Wing Alliance Stopped the Far-Right from Seizing Power w/ MP Danièle Obono
The left-wing coalition in France won a surprise victory in France’s snap elections called by President Macron. The New Popular Front defeated not only Macron’s Ensemble, they beat the far-right coalition of Marine Le Pen – which had made shocking gains in the first round of voting – to become the largest bloc in Parliament.
MP Danièle Obono from the movement La France Insoumise and the New Popular Front Coalition discusses how the Left united to beat the far-right and secured the historic election victory.
“Macron is trying to pull a power grab. If this was happening anywhere else in the world, especially in an African country, you would have the entire media saying the president should ‘respect democracy’” –@Deputee_Obono with @FranceInsoumise
