Do you have a source or examples? I haven’t heard anything about the french situation since the left and the liberals actually formed a coalition to stop the FP from winning.
The most voted party in the wide front coalition is LFI, earning more votes than Macron’s party. Macron is refusing so far to name a president from the LFI, for the first time in the history of the 5th republic of France.
The Nouveau Front Populaire got 193 seats out of 577 at the national assembly. Despite winning the election, it’s not enough to have an absolute majority. As for their alliance with the libs, it was just to prevent the fascist from gaining more seats (actuallyjust a matter of saving face for the presidential party), the libs had no will to take their alliance further than that, and were very clear about their unwillingness to accept any government proposed by NFP. Besides, when the dust settled, the “socialists” resumed their courting of the right, further weakening NFP.
The left alliance doesn’t have the numbers to govern on their own, and Macron (the liberals) would rather join forces with conservatives.
