One more question (none / 0)
And thanks for answering indeed.

My new quesitn is..will it be another small left party, left of the PS among hundreds of other (well not hundreds but five or six?

I mean it is difficult to create a common platform with other non-communist left?

A pleasure

Re: One more question (none / 0)
In my opinion this party has far more potential than any of the other left-of-left parties, in that these other parties are more or less stuck in an "opposition mindset". These other parties can only exist by opposing others.

But this party here, does not oppose anyone in particular, or any party in particular. It focuses on our way of life. On something new to try, now that we've seen the downsides of communism and capitalism. This is what makes it a promising one.

A lot of people who are tired of oscillating between moderate left and far left, may find an opportunity for change in this somewhat "apolitical" new party. (apolitical in the sense that, like I said, it does not exist to fight against opponent parties)
