LFI Files Censure Motion Against Bayrou and Endorses ‘Bloquons Tout’ Shutdown Call

The left-wing party unites a no-confidence motion with digital grassroots backing for a 10 September shutdown in protest of the government’s austerity budget.

Des appels à « tout bloquer » en France le 10 septembre, venus d’horizons très divers, se multiplient.

Overview

  • Jean-Luc Mélenchon, Mathilde Panot and Manuel Bompard pledged to file an immediate motion of censure and demand an extraordinary National Assembly session to oust Prime Minister François Bayrou.
  • La France Insoumise formally endorsed the internet-born “Bloquons Tout” call for a nationwide stoppage on September 10 and urged supporters to work with local collectives.
  • The decentralized campaign originated on a Telegram channel in late May and has spread via TikTok, X and Instagram with demands ranging from a citizens’ initiative referendum to higher wages, pensions, voluntary confinement and a general strike.
  • LFI figures including Éric Coquerel and Aurélien Le Coq emphasize respect for the movement’s “auto-organisation” and align its demands with party policy despite the presence of far-right and conspiracist networks.
  • Analysts and union notices note rapid online diffusion but warn that the campaign’s heterogeneous composition and leaderless nature make its transformation into large-scale street action uncertain.
