The candidate for French Prime Minister put forward by the leftist New Popular Front coalition, Lucie Castets, has come out of the closet in an interview intended to get ahead of critics. While it lacks the support of President Emmanuel Macron, the leftist alliance maintains it should be allowed to form a government after it won the most of seats in the National Assembly in June’s snap elections.
Lucie Castets, the New Popular Front’s candidate for Prime Minister, announced that she was married to a woman and mother of a young child in an interview with Paris Match magazine, published Tuesday.
