Socialist Party primary faces organisational chaos ahead of left-wing debate

The party had planned a primary to bring together all left-wing contenders, including allies Raphaël Glucksmann and Emmanuel Maurel, and to rally behind the winner. However, the process has faltered from the start. A key point of contention is whether the contest should feature a single televised debate, as favored by Glucksmann, or a different format. This disagreement highlights deeper organisational challenges within the party.
