Press Briefs reported that Ségolène Royal referred to Raphaël Glucksmann as an intern after his victory in the social-democratic primary. The media recalled that she stated to L’Obs at the end of September that he had attended a meeting of Nicolas Sarkozy and did not come from the left. According to Press Briefs, Glucksmann was surrounded by several figures from the outgoing majority, including Aurélien Rousseau, Marguerite Cazeneuve, Simon Bernard, and Sacha Houlié, and was presented by some as a "new Macron." The media also mentioned a campaign note revealed by Mediapart in May, which allegedly recommended targeting wealthy, educated, and older voters as a priority, rather than the 18-25 age group, the working classes, and residents of the suburbs. Press Briefs added that an anonymous executive from Place Publique confided to Mediapart in August that Glucksmann had requested to set the voting fee at 15 euros to restrict the electorate, fearing that too many people participating might lead to a loss. The primary reportedly gathered about 121,000 participants, nearly 14 times less than in 2017 and 22 times less than in 2011, according to the media's comparisons with the first rounds of previous socialist primaries. The media contrasted these figures with the LR primary of 2021, won by Valérie Pécresse with 60.95% of the votes among nearly 115,000 participants. She then obtained 4.78% in the 2022 presidential election. Glucksmann, on the other hand, received 66.17% of the votes in a vote counting approximately 121,000 participants, noted Press Briefs, which questioned the significance of this victory in view of the presidential election. #politique #France #primaires (translated)

The article presents the testimonies of angry high school students, mainly from the suburbs, during a demonstration in Paris to support their protest movement, highlighting their feeling of injustice in the face of a society they perceive as bleak and unequal. #Lycéens #Manifestation #Solidarité (translated)

S wondered if Louise, 22 years old, had really taken the upper hand over Elwan. S wrote that she had presented him as the "defender of the suburbs" and had commented on his tie, his smile, and his eloquence. S felt that she had thus called into question the legitimacy of a high school student who was simply supportive, ironically adding that solidarity would require proof of residence. The message was accompanied by the hashtag #LCI. #lci #solidarité #justice #banlieues (translated)

Vincent Lapierre stated that the exercise was more difficult than his critics on X thought. He mentioned a constant threat of violence and a strong reaction to a simple joke, which he believed forced him to proceed with caution. He also described the time needed to respond to what he considered fallacious arguments as considerable. According to him, Elwan did not address his comments on the differences between the RN and fascism, the resources allocated to suburb plans, the situation of suburban residents, the generosity of the French social system, or racial profiling, for which Lapierre claimed to rely on a study. He accused Elwan of staying in the rhetoric and bouncing from one topic to another. Lapierre clarified that he was not seeking to win the debate, but to gather testimonies without being attacked and to allow the audience to form their own opinion. He distinguished reporting from debating and claimed to be, to his knowledge, the only one who had given these high school students a voice without provoking confrontation. He believed that this tact explained why his reports were viewed beyond the right-wing Internet sphere. #Débat #Journalisme #Témoin (translated)

The high school blockade movement, emerging from popular suburbs, reflects a political awakening among the youth, raising hopes for educational change while navigating risks of excesses and an inability of adults to question the system. #Lycée #Blocus #JeunessePolitique (translated)

What is currently happening in France has nothing to do with student protests or democratic expression! 83 police officers were attacked, 32 teachers injured, hundreds of schools were set on fire, vehicles and churches were burned. There were nearly 2,000 arrests, the French Ministry of the Interior reported last night. The street scene is dominated by masked groups in outfits and young people, most of whom come from the migrant environments shaped by the suburbs, many are waving Palestinian flags. When you see these civil war-like conditions, you have to put it in context: How upset were we back then about "Fridays for Future" when school was skipped on Fridays for the climate? Compared to what is happening in France, that was harmless kindergarten. You can think what you want about the movement at that time, but no rescue workers were beaten into the hospital or school inventory destroyed there. France is a massive warning signal for Germany! When the state retreats in front of burning streets and watches ideologized and unintegrated groups take control, the monopoly on violence erodes completely. A zero-tolerance strategy is needed before such scenes become a reality for us too! #TheFrench #UrbanLandscape #Terror #TheFrench #Stadtbild #Terror #Frankreich #Proteste #Gewalt (translated)

The justifications for blocking the high schools seem doubtful to me. Looking a bit at the videos of the demands: ▫️"We are 25 or 30 per class" Well... that's not a lot, 25 or 30, in middle school and high school, we were between 35 and 40 every year... ▫️"The facilities are unsanitary" Well, that's often a reality, but a few minutes on TikTok are enough to understand that it's partly due to repeated damage by the students. ▫️"The class hours from 8 AM to 6 PM are too long" It's always been like that and we already have a lot of vacations; it's either one or the other. ▫️The cost and quality of the cafeteria: they are right about this, but with such a low cost relative to the real price and inflation, it's a logical consequence. ▫️Parcoursup and the future: this is the fault of the system that wants to give the Bac to everyone, even though there are no more job prospects. The problem is not Parcoursup but the too large number of high school students. ▫️"We are not replacing teachers" Given the working conditions, it’s not surprising. Overall, it only takes 5 minutes to watch the hundreds of videos to understand the issue. 80% of high school students don't care about the above demands; most are there for opportunism. The argument about disparities between suburbs and city centers is real, especially for Paris (the high schools in the center that pretend to support the movement are bold), but once again, the financial means allocated there are greater than for other territories, peri-urban or rural, and there are no riots there. And we can see clearly that this is just a pretext for the riot. We hear "the police are attacking the high school students." Really, I didn't think that by burning the high school entrance and throwing cobblestones at the riot police, they would charge back... All of this promises an explosive year in 2027… #Éducation #Lycées #Réformes (translated)

Sans Toi teaser par Ousmane Dembele est clairement un des meilleurs sons de l'album.

« Le débat politique enferme les habitantes et les habitants dans des catégories qui s’ignorent, se méfient ou se craignent. On oppose les villes aux campagnes, les banlieues aux villages, les centres aux périphéries, la métropole aux outre-mer.

⚡️🇫🇷RÉTRO - Il y a plus de 30 ans déjà, les #banlieues et ceux qui y habitent pouvaient faire l’objet de graves #manipulations médiatiques. En 1994, France 3 avait ainsi repris l’image de 3 jeunes de #Lille, l’un Algérien et les deux autres d’origine algérienne et marocaine, issue d’un reportage antérieur, avant de la truquer numériquement à la palette graphique, en leur ajoutant barbes et moustache, pour illustrer un sondage sur l’#intégrisme et le FIS (Front islamique du salut) dans « La Marche du siècle », émission pourtant réputée sérieuse de Jean-Marie Cavada. #banlieues #manipulations #France

Julien Dray sur CNews le 15 août 2026 ; « Je suis angoissé par un second tour Le Pen / Mélenchon. Ma solution, c’est @fhollande ! Je n’ai pas envie de voir les banlieues à feu et à sang avec la victoire de RN! » Ah Julien quelle performance. Sous prétexte que le RN pourrait passer, tu sors immédiatement le grand classique : « les banlieues à feu et à sang ». La petite musique bien huilée, celle qu’on ressort dès que le peuple menace de ne plus voter comme les experts du bien le souhaitent. Tu ne débats plus. Tu ne combats plus des idées. Tu menaces. « Votez correctement, sinon ça brûle. » Magnifique. Tu prédis le KO, et pour l’éviter, tu acceptes par avance que la démocratie se couche devant la pression de la rue. C’est plus que de l’ingérence : c’est de la capitulation en bonne et due forme, déguisée en lucidité. Et vous allez voir plus on s’approchera de 2027, plus cette peur sera diffusée en boucle par le pseudo camp du bien. Toujours la même partition : « Attention, si vous votez mal, les banlieues flambent. » Comme si la démocratie devait désormais se plier à un chantage permanent. Continue, Julien. Plus vous jouez cette carte, plus les gens comprennent exactement ce que vous êtes en train de leur dire : « Votre vote ne compte que s’il nous arrange. Sinon, c’est la guerre civile. » Bravo. En réalité, tu n’alertes pas. Toi et ton « camp du bien » instaurez la peur. C’est votre seul moyen aujourd’hui de mettre la pression car vous n’avez aucun argument, aucune idée et strictement aucun programme. C’est le vide intersidérale. #Politique #Démocratie #Élections2027

🚨 Le boxeur Anthony Joshua a demandé à Thierry Henry pourquoi la France produit autant de footballeurs de classe mondiale… « On ne pourra jamais battre le football de rue, sur le béton.

⚡️🇫🇷FLASH - Raphaël #Glucksmann « se donne 3 mois » pour décider s’il sera candidat à l’élection présidentielle. Celui qui s’est entouré de plusieurs anciens soutiens d’Emmanuel Macron veut aller « à la rencontre des Français ». Une annonce au 20h de TF1 qui intervient après la parution par Mediapart d’une note de l’un de ses conseillers lui proposant d’« éviter » certaines cibles électorales, comme les habitants des banlieues, les personnes aux faibles revenus et les jeunes... La route est encore longue pour le « nouveau Macron », comme certains le surnomment sur les réseaux sociaux. Commentaire d’une ancienne ministre socialiste auprès de BFMTV : « Raphaël #Glucksmann n’est pas au niveau, tout le monde le sait, même lui ». #ÉlectionPrésidentielle #RaphaëlGlucksmann #PolitiqueFrançaise
