Since narrowly missing out in last year’s presidential election, Jean-Luc Mélenchon and his France Insoumise party have established themselves as the leading left-wing opponents of Emmanuel Macron. In a session introduced by Jon Trickett MP, Mélenchon explains his political vision, the tasks facing the left in Europe today and why we need a citizen revolution against our political elites, before taking questions from the audience.
