Overview

• Three major opposition currents within the French Socialist Party, led by Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol, Hélène Geoffroy, and Philippe Brun, announced their merger on April 11, 2025.
• The unified opposition aims to present a common orientation framework at the PS congress in Nancy, scheduled for June 13–15, 2025.
• The alliance rejects any future partnerships with La France Insoumise (LFI), criticizing Olivier Faure for aligning the PS too closely with populist influences in recent elections.
• The group has extended an invitation to Boris Vallaud's 'Unir' faction to join their collective framework in an effort to broaden opposition support.
• This development marks a decisive moment in the party’s internal struggle, as opposition leaders call for renewed unity and a departure from divisive alliances.
