Paul Midy Praises Gabriel Attal as Hopeful Candidate for the 2027 Presidential Election

Paris – 30.05.2026: Paul Midy, deputy of “Ensemble pour la République” from the Essonne department, has called Gabriel Attal the candidate with the greatest progress and a positive project that brings back hope. Midy spoke on Saturday, May 30, in the program “La politique s’éclaire” and emphasized that Attal represents an optimistic and positive program aimed at radically changing things. He praised Attal’s ability to shape the future and give people hope. Midy highlighted that Attal is the candidate making the most progress and presenting a project that restores hope to the people. He stressed that Attal advocates an optimistic and positive program intended to bring radical change. Midy commended Attal’s capacity to shape the future and provide hope to the people. Gabriel Attal, former Prime Minister and currently Secretary General of the Renaissance party, officially announced his candidacy for the 2027 presidential election on May 22, 2026. In his statement, he emphasized his ambition to make France the leading European power again, but without “blood and tears.” On the same day, he announced a major campaign event on May 30, 2026, at the Paris exhibition center Porte de Versailles. At this first large meeting, Attal presented his “French promise” and his “capacity for action.” He stressed that he leaves “blood and tears to others” and instead promises “action and hope.” Attal introduced his four “main projects”: Education, wages, borders, and artificial intelligence. He criticized the “pessimism” and “standstill” that, in his opinion, are being spread by many political leaders. In recent weeks, Attal has received support from various sides. On May 17, 2026, 500 local elected officials signed a call urging him to run for the presidency. They highlighted his ability to act and shape the future. However, a recently published poll indicated that if Attal and Édouard Philippe both run, the central block risks being eliminated already in the first round. The poll suggested that in this scenario, Jean-Luc Mélenchon could face Marine Le Pen or Jordan Bardella in the second round. The political landscape thus remains exciting as the 2027 presidential election approaches and the dynamics within the central block continue to evolve.
