  • Implementing price controls on essential goods.
  • Supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty and providing military aid.
  • Environmental measures like halting major highway projects and large water basins.
  • Improving public services, including healthcare, education, and social housing.
  • Restoring community policing and banning certain police weapons.
  • Reforming the Common Agricultural Policy and opposing EU austerity measures.
  • Ensuring complete pedagogical freedom in schools and providing free school meals and supplies.
  • Protecting local retailers in New Caledonia and stopping the immediate electoral body reform.
  • Initiating major legislative reforms within the first 100 days to address social, health, education, energy, and climate issues.
