Congress in June could not announce more bad for a party now in tatters, where the last reformist environmentalists might be tempted to join their comrades of the EDU invigorated by these nominations.
This internal deadline however, should be an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of the decision to Emmanuelle Cosse which is in line with those of Jean-Vincent Place and François de Rugy in 2015 and that of Cécile Duflot a year earlier.
