The "Divers Gauche" (DVG) or "Various Left" in France is not a single political party but rather a designation for left-leaning politicians and groups who are not affiliated with a specific left-wing party. This includes independent candidates and small political entities that share common leftist ideologies but operate outside the major left-wing parties.
DVG emphasizes social justice and economic equality. They often support policies aimed at wealth redistribution through progressive taxation and increased public spending on social services such as healthcare and education.
They advocate for stronger regulations on businesses to ensure fair wages and working conditions, and they typically support the expansion of workers' rights and protections.
Environmental protection and sustainability are significant aspects of DVG’s platform. They often support policies aimed at combating climate change, including investing in renewable energy and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
They may also back measures to reduce pollution and protect natural resources, aligning closely with green politics.
DVG members advocate for comprehensive social welfare programs to support the most vulnerable populations, including the unemployed, elderly, and disabled. They support policies that promote equality and social inclusion, such as anti-discrimination laws and measures to support minority groups and immigrants.
The DVG supports enhancing democratic processes and increasing citizen participation in governance. They often push for transparency in government operations and campaign finance reforms to reduce the influence of money in politics.
They may advocate for decentralization, giving more power to local governments to address specific regional needs effectively.
In recent elections, DVG candidates have had a modest but notable presence. In the 2022 parliamentary elections, they secured around 2.1% of the votes, which translated to 22 seats in the National Assembly.
Their current polling trends show slight growth, reaching about 2.9%. Despite their relatively small representation, DVG candidates can play a crucial role in forming coalitions and influencing policy debates within the broader left-wing spectrum, often working with larger leftist coalitions such as NUPES.
