Re: A new French political party (none / 0)
It means you cannot be a minister, mayor etc
(except for towns with less than 3000 inhabitants, which are basically villages ... in villages that small mayors traditionally do not belong to any party, or rarely that is).

The idea is that no one in this new party can be an elected official. If you are elected by this party, then you must quit the party. You will be reinstated in the party once your term is over.

This is supposed to eliminate career/ambition motivated memberships.
