A delegation from Workers' Liberty and Solidarity attended the annual fete of the French Trotskyist organisation Lutte Ouvriere on 26-28 May.
This fete, a tradition for over 30 years now, attracts around 20,000 people each year - somewhat fewer this year on account of almost continuous rain. It is held in large grounds about half-an-hour from Paris, with some 200 stalls offering food, drink, games, and information, plus music, dancing, and forums for political debate.
