What you need to know

One last opportunity to stand out. A few days before the first round, the five candidates in the primary of the social democratic left face off, Sunday October 4, during a final televised debate to try to stand out and attract as many voters as possible. Public Place MEP Raphaël Glucksmann, PS boss Olivier Faure, former 2007 presidential candidate Ségolène Royal, PS deputies Jérôme Guedj and the Republican and Socialist Left (GRS) Emmanuel Maurel, who hope to represent social democracy in the 2027 presidential election, have one last chance to do well, during a debate on BFMTV in 8:45 p.m. Follow our live stream.

Raphaël Glucksmann's camp rejects the hand extended by Gabriel Attal. Raphaël Glucksmann's supporters closed the door to Gabriel Attal's proposal to form a "grand coalition" with a view to the presidential election. In an interview with Le Parisien on Saturday, the Renaissance candidate pleaded for an alliance aimed at bringing together voters "from the social democratic left to the republican right", in order to avoid a duel between Marine Le Pen and Jean-Luc Mélenchon in the second round.

Last debate for the candidates in the PS-Place publique primary. Olivier Faure, Raphaël Glucksmann, Jérôme Guedj, Ségolène Royal and Emmanuel Maurel will debate on BFMTV this Sunday at 8:45 p.m. The first round of the primary organized by the Socialist Party and Place publique takes place on October 9 and 10.

Jean-Philippe Tanguy maintains his support for Jordan Bardella. “We are united behind Jordan Bardella who is innocent,” assured the RN deputy for the Somme on CNews, referring to “a terrible campaign”. He accuses Mediapart of "bad faith" and affirms that "their so-called evidence was appalling, there was absolutely nothing", despite the explanations given by the investigative media.

#POLITICS "The question is how to embody change. On October 9 and 10, the choice will be simple: either the gathering of the left, environmentalists, trade unionists, the popular left, or a return to tinkering. (...) With me, neither vague, nor wolf", declares Olivier Faure, who uses the famous formula of Martine Aubry, former figure of the PS.

#POLITICS "Our country is damaged, undermined by fractures, social, territorial, between generations. The challenge of this presidential election is to repair the country, to restore justice to the country. My candidacy is that of a humanist activist who does not want the RN to come to power, I will do everything to prevent it", declares Emmanuel Maurel, the little-known challenger of this primary.

#POLITICS "We all hurt when we see the state of our country, the workers who cannot make ends meet (...) the state of our public service, the hospital, our schools, when we see to what extent the voice of France is no longer listened to, lists Raphaël Glucksmann. We have the impression of being in a country that is falling apart, paralyzed by hatred and fear." He then emphasizes his meetings on the ground with French people "who refuse resignation, who expect France to be rebuilt", "a profound change, without violence", that only his political family can lead.

#POLITICS “I said to myself, when I see the situation in France, that the French are going to choose someone with experience”, slips Ségolène Royal, who slips a hollow dig at Raphaël Glucksmann, whom she had described as an “intern”. She then unrolls her CV (magistrate, minister, MP, regional president, etc.) to support her expertise on numerous subjects.

#POLITICS “I offer you a path of courage to respond to the need for dignity expressed by the French,” declares Jérôme Guedj, first candidate invited to speak. In this concept of dignity, he evokes purchasing power, health, security but also “budgetary seriousness and the rigor of tax justice”. “Dignity is also the way of doing politics. You will be able to decide the difference between Olivier Faure and me”, in the case of alliances with LFI.

#POLITICS “The anti-Semitic DNA of the National Rally has always been known,” says Valérie Pécresse, who recalls an incident at the Ile-de-France regional council, when an elected RN left the hemicycle during a tribute to Simone Veil. “Jordan Bardella was sitting next to him, and no one reacted.”

#POLITICS “I always said that in the end, there would only be one candidate on the right and in the center,” believes Valérie Pécresse, on the set of the franceinfo political show “Le Grand Enjeu”. Everyone gathered behind my project [in 2022] that I had not moved one iota. This is what will happen again this year.
