Jean-Luc Melenchon has decided to step down from co-president of the Front de Gauche party he founded in 2009. His far left group (which seems to share some economic policies with the Front National) does not support the government but fared very badly in the local and European elections.
He thinks that his high profile has diminished the impact of his message so has decided to withdraw to concentrate on thinking more and speaking less. Probably an example more politicians could profitably follow.
