Defeat for the Winners and Victory for the Losers: French Society and Parliament after the July 2024 Elections
We are faced with a situation where those who should be the real winners (the National Rally, France's leading party as such) have lost, and the real losers (the New Popular Front and the Macronists) have won. Here is a time bomb for the entire socio-political system. Therefore, the high level of conflict observed in parliament since 2018 will only increase. Above all, the underrepresentation and artificial second place of the National Rally party, which best represents the working class, can only give rise to more Yellow Vests protests.
