Former French Prime Minister François Bayrou used his party's back-to-school conference to propose a schedule for organizing an open primary vote to select a single candidate ranging from the left to the moderate right ahead of the 2027 presidential election, Le Monde reported.

The plan, which Bayrou has called the 'grand fleuve central' or 'great central river,' would bring together a broad coalition behind one candidate. According to Le Monde, however, few of the weekend's guests or officials from Bayrou's MoDem party currently support the option.
