In the countryside, they already are.
Rebellious and communists have been sticking, towing and pounding the pavement for several days in Ile-de-France, in view of the regional elections on June 13 and 20.
Candidate Clémentine Autain even completed a first round of Ile-de-France in Créteil (Val-de-Marne) last week.
And before unveiling her vision, in a book to be published on May 6 entitled "To be able to live in Ile-de-France", the deputy (LFI) of Seine-Saint-Denis presented this Tuesday in Paris, the political figures, trade unions , and other personalities who will fight, facing their "only adversary": Valérie Pécresse (Libres!), the outgoing president of the region.
At his side, there are leading rebels.
Sophia Chikirou, communication advisor to Jean-Luc Mélenchon, specialist in TV sets, with "formidable energy", boasts the head of the list, will cross swords in Paris, when the spokesperson for LFI Julie Garnier, qualified as “peerless” activist is invested in Seine-et-Marne.
Among the Communists, the outgoing Céline Malaisé and Fabien Guillaud-Bataille (leader in the Val-de-Marne), leave, joined, among others, by the former mayor of La Verrière, Nelly Dutu, appointed in the Yvelines.
Emergency physician Christophe Prudhomme head of the list in Seine-Saint-Denis
“For five years, Valérie Pécresse and her team have divided the region, ton Céline Malaisé, at the head of the Left Front group.
We want to unite it.
"And denounce endowments" in free fall "in all departments, except, according to the elected, in the Hauts-de-Seine, which have a budget surplus.
"The region was not at the side of Ile-de-France but served as a very personal springboard," squeaks the elected.
Personalities from all walks of life have also chosen the Insoumise-PCF list.
The doctor at Samu 93, Christophe Prudhomme, on the front line during this health crisis, renews his political commitment, to "create another dynamic" in "rupture" with Valérie Pécresse.
How? 'Or' What ?
"Starting from human needs", pleads the trade unionist CGT who will lead the list in his department.
And to detail the “urgent and useful flagship measure” announced a few minutes earlier by Clémentine Autain: 20,000 nurses and nursing assistants will be trained during the term of office, under paid contracts.
In this cast with balanced forces (Democratic and Social Left, Together! Are also present), other well-known names are also lining up, such as the lawyer Raquel Garrido or the director Christian Benedetti, LFI's companion since the Europeans.
It is also in his theater in Alfortville (Val-de-Marne) that Clémentine Autain launched his campaign.
A vegetarian menu per week in high schools
A team ready for battle, supported by the arrival of a new partner, the Animal Party (PA).
"We go with the group which is sincerely committed to the animal cause", warns Isabelle Yvos, member of the national office of the PA.
Clémentine Autain, for example, promises a vegetarian menu per week in high school canteens, from September 2021, before moving to two during the mandate.
In its wallet, at the end of "discussions", the Animalist Party also leaves with the assurance of obtaining a delegation to the animal condition.
Animal rights activists are therefore turning away from environmentalists.
“The movement does not belong to any party,” emphasizes Isabelle Yvos.
Will they all meet together, in an alliance by June 13?
“As soon as Julien Bayou (
EELV candidate)
extended his hand, I was ready to discuss, responds the Insoumise manager.
If there is an organized meeting, I am available.
"Not without doubting it a little:" He took out his posters, and he is all alone.
