2027 presidential election: divisions on the right and interventions by François Ruffin

On November 2, 2026, Gabriel Attal's merchandise store is mocked on social media, while Franck Allisio believes the situation would be "ten times worse" without Jean-Luc Mélenchon elected. Divisions on the right and in the center intensify as the presidential election approaches, with Édouard Philippe's television appearance aggravating tensions. The same day, François Ruffin, guest on BFMTV, criticizes Édouard Philippe's "old recipes" on purchasing power, proposes putting ministers on the minimum wage, and calls for an end to "privileges". On November 3, an editorial analyzes a campaign shaken by mobilizations, a poll deems Marine Le Pen the most convincing on the cost of living, and Laurent Nuñez refuses to remove grenades and tear gas from police. A debate also concerns LGBT voting intentions in favor of the far right in 2027.
