It took weeks that Yannick Jadot and Anne Hidalgo argued in parallel corridors a sometimes similar electorate and especially more and more reduced. The primary proposal of all the left, launched by Anne Hidalgo on Wednesday, December 8, the Yannick Jadot team lives like a great call of air. At the primary, the ecologist candidate said no, but a great yes at the sketch of a beginning of withdrawal of the mayor of Paris. This is an opportunity to get rid of a competitor bulky, which plows the same electorate and often seizes similar campaign themes. Yannick Jadot has long had the image of the most social-democratic of ecologists, while in Paris, Anne Hidalgo posted as the most environmental scientist.
From now on, the road is free, he hoped, Thursday, December 9 on Europe 1 :” There is a finding of failure of the socialist candidate. The PS, which is a great party in the history of our country, of social and democratic conquest, today found, including with the Quinquennate Holland, many, Many, a lot of limits on ecology, social, democracy. “For the future, he calls the Socialists to do as him five years ago, who had been rounded behind Benoît Hamon:” The plume we have Five years ago, it is to withdraw our candidacy, discuss the project and leave together. “

Sandrine Rousseau, President of this Political Council, estimated a few days ago that to build alliances, better to avoid abrupt candidates. “Anne Hidalgo is right when she says she will not fade in front of a man, we have to find ways that allow not to hit anyone,” she felt, far from the choice operated on Thursday morning by the ecologist candidate.
In the iron arm between ecologists and socialists, the contradictions will have been numerous, but since the last April meeting at the initiative of Yannick Jadot, the question of a “social-ecolo block” around a gathering candidate permeates all the precamp. These two parallel campaigns gave rise to alambic justifications. Over the months, the PS has been explained that at the bottom, Yannick Jadot was a more radical socialist political family, the need for a social democratic candidacy, only to address the social issue. with the serious need. In mirrored, ecologists explained that if Anne Hidalgo was so ecologist, she only had to join them – “There is a green bulletin in the presidential election, it’s the Bulletin Yannick Jadot,” said Julien Bayou.
