Maybe the reason is that the court’s decision goes completely against democracy? I fully agree with the statement from the French Left party that such a decision should only be made by the people, not by an unelected structure. Elections allow people to vote, so why should the court interfere?

Quant au reste, la France insoumise n’a jamais eu comme moyen d’action d’utiliser un tribunal pour se débarrasser du Rassemblement National. Nous le combattons dans les urnes comme dans la rue, par la mobilisation populaire du peuple français, comme nous avons su le faire lors des élections législatives de 2024.

That is difference between left and liberals, imo. While leftists are trying to fight the right by convincing people, liberals just trying to restrict anything that they do not like using legal tricks.

What’s stopping me from illegally winning the election then? Where do you draw the line ? Isn’t the additional money here already an unfair advantage compared to your opponents ? Let’s not act like the extra money was not used to further the party goals elsewhere. There is no such thing as “a fair debate of opinion” and whatever bullshit. They break the law, they get caught, they pay for it. And they where happy to vote this very law 10 years ago. Do not generalize the left with your opinion, I disagree with LFI completely here.
