A tour in Occitania to restore a little balm to the heart, before a presidential election that promises to be difficult for the Socialist Party (PS). “After the tour of France who suffers but who hopes, I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time,” said Anne Hidalgo on Saturday, March 26, in Toulouse.

It must be said that the candidate has collected in Occitanie the greatest number of sponsorships of all the departments of France. And she likes to compare politics, to the land of Ovalie, to “a pack as rugby, who knows how to highlight his individualities”. Land of Nougaro and Spanish Republicans, too. “We know here what exile means in these war times,” said the candidate during the meeting she held in the middle of the afternoon, in front of more than two thousand people.

In the morning, it is in the popular district of empalot, its six thousand inhabitants and its large towers dedicated to the demolition, which it was welcomed by a handful of activists. Discussions at the exit of the metro, then in front of the seat of the HLM Office of the City. Popular “abandoned” neighborhoods, report Borloo on the suburbs “buried”, “dramatic disappearance” of the contracts helped, M me Hidalgo has lasted the bankruptcy of the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, who “knows Not the life you live “.

Sébastien Vincini, the departmental federal secretary of the PS, commented, a little behind the little crowd: “Anne is of exemplary courage, but we must already think of the post-presidential.” In the “more Great Federation of France, we already work to pulse a new movement for the left, “he says. The announced defeat of the PS and the rumors of creating a new party have also traveled the Toulouse lands.

RENEWAL ROAD MAP

“The question is so much unanswered and we do not know what label we will defend our ideas”, for Thierry SUAUD, future candidate in the month of June. In Toulouse, the only certainty is that Carole Delga, the socialist president of the region, will be part of it. It is even president to take the lead of a future movement.

At the meeting of the afternoon, if it strongly supported M me Hidalgo, his speech sounds more than the terms of a renewal roadmap. “Let’s be proud of our candidate and are still wearing the values ​​of socialism, whose life has never been a paved road of roses,” she said. The populism of Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the permanent buzz, the TV trays, the hatred of the other, the return to the real values ​​of the left, the most elected region president in 2021 gradually climbs the steps that lead it to a national destiny.
