Their vision

“The courage to protect and the pragmatism to act.”

President of the Hauts-de-France region and a figure of an openly social right, Xavier Bertrand embodies a different way of doing right-wing politics: less doctrinaire, closer to the ground. His project revolves around one conviction: protecting the middle and working classes without sacrificing economic discipline, and governing through pragmatism rather than ideology. A strategic state, stronger public services and real decentralisation as antidotes to the French people's distrust.

Their platform

Work & purchasing power
Boost the value of work through targeted pay rises and better recognition of effort. Lift the purchasing power of the middle and working classes without adding to business costs.
Decentralisation & local areas
Champion far-reaching decentralisation: decisions taken closest to local realities restore trust. Rely on the regions and grassroots elected officials rather than on Parisian technocracies.
Health & education
Invest massively to guarantee access to public services across the whole country, including medical deserts and rural areas. An accessible school and hospital for all remain the mark of a republic that truly protects.
Security & immigration
Defend a firm sovereign-state line on security and managing migration flows, without giving in to one-upmanship. A right that protects without demonising, addressing people's concrete anxieties without radical posturing.
Industry, energy & transition
Defend a strategic state able to protect French industry and its jobs. Support the ecological transition through economic pragmatism rather than ideological constraint, preserving the competitiveness of key sectors.
