La France Insoumise Calls for Nationwide Protests Against Bayrou Government on March 22
The left-wing party shifts its strategy to street demonstrations after five failed no-confidence motions in Parliament.
- La France Insoumise (LFI) has announced nationwide protests on March 22, opposing Prime Minister François Bayrou's government, the far-right, and their policies.
- The protests are planned to coincide with the International Day Against Racism on March 21, emphasizing opposition to discriminatory ideologies.
- The call for demonstrations follows LFI's unsuccessful attempts to pass five no-confidence motions against the Bayrou government in the National Assembly.
- LFI accuses the Socialist Party of abandoning the left-wing coalition, the Nouveau Front Populaire, by failing to support the censure motions.
- Party leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon claims the Bayrou government is seeking alliances with the far-right, citing recent controversial statements on immigration policies.
