'The seriousness of the moment calls for a firm response from French society against the incredible abuse of autocratic power of which it is the victim. The Insoumis movement proposes that marches in defence of democracy take place. It expresses the wish that all organisations committed to democracy unite to stand up to and compel the president to recognise the result of the elections.'
Wow, so weird to see a leftist movement actually using their power to try and effect an outcome, regardless of what others might say about them. Imagine if the likes of Bernie Sanders or Corbyn had mobilised their popular base in this way instead of betraying them and capitulating to the ruling elites. They might not have won but at least there would have been concessions and all their efforts wouldn't have been a complete waste of time.
