I assume that Mr. France Insoumise will not soumise himself to the verdict of the French left's Presidential candidate selection. But maybe I should check.
Seems I was right. And seemingly most of the other too. Good thing the French presidential system isn't one that heavily punishes a divided left eh? 🙃 
I'm not surprised that the left are struggling to unite. It's hard to create a common enemy in a country whose taxes are already the highest in the world, where poverty is quite low, where housing is pretty good, and where the current government is largely functional.
Especially when the last left-wing President left office almost universally detested. (I think unfairly, I think the legacy of Hollande's Presidency [which includes Macron] is very good, but that's what the French public think and they get to vote).
