Left Radical Party

The Left Radical Party (Parti Radical de Gauche or PRG) is a minor French centre-left, social-liberal party with moderate views, formed in 1972 by a split from the Parti Radical or Radical Socialist Party, once the dominant party of the French left.

The PRG, originally known as the Movement of Left Radicals (Mouvement des Radicaux de Gauche), retains some support among middle-class voters and in traditional Radical areas in the south-west, but it only gains parliamentary representation by courtesy of the Socialist Party, with which it has been in close alliance since 1982, often running joint lists. Its President is Jean-Michel Baylet and its Secretary-General is Elisabeth Boyer .
