The homicide of Quentin Deranque, a far-right militant, on February 14, has placed antifascism at the center of a political debate on militant brutality.

Following the death of far-right militant Quentin Deranque in Lyon on February 14, Republicans are calling for a political isolation of La France insoumise (LFI), accused of fostering violence. LFI leaders deny any responsibility and remain open to left-wing alliances for the 2026 municipal elections. The Socialist Party is hesitant on these proposals due to the alleged involvement of an LFI deputy's staff in the case.
