To be better paid, to be better fed, to be retired at 60… This is the definition of happiness according to Fabien Roussel. This notion, the communist candidate has made it the heart of his program and the interest he has been arousing for several weeks confirms him in his strategy.
” The difference that I make with the benevolent and happy spirit of my campaign, my approach to defending my project so original and so different, including on the left. I believe that this project is starting to resonate stronger and stronger “, launched the candidate of the Communist Party.
A speech and a way of being, like the few dance steps of the candidate for the podium, which seduce Lilia, a former socialist voter then a Mélenchonist. ” We’ve lost a bit of this notion of pleasure and we’ve gone a little on a notion of guilt and I think it’s good to make people dream. Well, at the time the left was that, it made you want, it was the happy days so I think it’s rather positive “, she explains.
Fabien Roussel also scored points on the merits. Especially with former supporters ofArnaud Montebourg like Guvan. “ He puts the working classes first, he puts the social question first… On the republican question, on questions of secularism, he is also very good. It seizes the questions that we tend to oust on the left “.
Yet Fabien Roussel denies it: no question of stealing votes from Jean-Luc Mélenchon or Anne Hidalgo. While clearly seeing his Communist Party playing the godfathers of the reconstruction of the left after the presidential election.
