Overview
- The movement held a mass rally that drew about 20,000 supporters and formally presented L'Avenir en commun, a 1,069‑measure presidential program, on Saturday, November 7.
- On the economic front the program calls for a net monthly minimum wage of €1,700, indexation of salaries to inflation, the return of a wealth tax, price controls on essentials, and large new public spending to boost consumption.
- On international policy the platform signals planned disobedience of EU fiscal rules, seeks greater democratic control over the European Central Bank, and proposes a progressive withdrawal from NATO's integrated military command.
- The manifesto proposes major shifts to policing and migration policy, including repeal of recent security laws, bans on crowd‑control 'nasse' formations and tasers, anti‑racism training for officers, mass regularization of undocumented migrants, and closure of detention centers.
- Critics note that only first‑year costs were published so far, raising questions about feasibility and market or diplomatic reactions, and polls show Mélenchon as the main left contender who would likely reach a second round but trail Marine Le Pen; a full chiffrage is promised for early 2027.
