The annual commemoration of anti-fascist volunteers who fought fascism in Spain now includes a key contribution from Italian comrades

ON Thursday September 5 Emmanuel Macron, having first gained the support of Marine Le Pen, appointed as prime minister Michel Barnier from the right-wing Republican Party (which came in fourth place in the elections and constitutes the smallest bloc in the Assembly).
For the New Popular Front Jean-Luc Melenchon said that the elections had been “stolen” and that France would see a “Macron-Le Pen” government imposed, and the Communists called for mass New Popular Front mobilisation against this anti-democratic coup.
Sylvie Ferrer, from the Haute Pyrenees region of France, is one of the region’s deputies to the French National Assembly. She was elected as a candidate of the New Popular Front which includes her party, France Insoumise (France Unbowed), the Communist Party, the Socialist Party and the Ecologists.
