The Creteil court judge ordered that the PS organize within 30 days a national convention regarding the agreement of New People's Ecological and Social Union Nupes. This decision does not invalidate the agreement, according to Corinne Narassiguin, the national secretary of PS.
The party number 2, explaining that the Nupes agreement with LFI, EELV, and the PCF was adopted by the National Council of the party on Tuesday. However, it "should have been the subject of a National Convention", stated the number 2. He also indicated that the PS appealed this decision.
The judge ordered that the Socialist Party organize a national conference within 30 days. This is because it was impossible to organize such an event more quickly. She also took into consideration the time required to vote in sections and then in the federations to designate the delegate of the national convention.
Furthermore, although the plaintiffs are four activists who aren't candidates for the legislative election and have no responsibilities within the PS authorities, they demanded a vote in order to validate the agreement. "Nothing in the judgement obliges us to organise a convention national with voter," she said.
She said that "we've made other deals in past that never went through a National Convention", calling them "political maneuvers" intended to "fuel division in left", and which "favors Emmanuel Macron" and those who "prepare the next Congress of the PS" with a view to overthrowing the current leadership.
In an internal PS message, she stated that "the political agreement that unites LFI and EELV with the PCF is more alive than ever" as well as "our campaign continues sans change", which was reported by AFP. A copy was available. She remembered that the PS Olivier Faure's first secretary was in Caen with Jean-Luc Melenchon, the leader of the "rebellious", to support Nupes candidates.
