Presentation of LFI

La France Insoumise (LFI or FI, litterally "France Unbowed") is the left-wing populist political party launched in 2016 by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, former co-president of the Parti de Gauche.

Flag of LFI

The party uses the lower case Greek letter phi (FI) as its logotype.
It recalls the name of the party, the birth of Athenian democracy, harmony, the golden ratio and intends to evoke hope in a Sixth Republic (an upturned 6) or someone raising his fist.

The flag is usually simply blue and red with the emblem and the party name (photo, 2021).

On the picture reported by William Garrison [source: foreignpolicy.com]: at a rally to protest against French President Emmanuel Macron's pension reform plan in Paris on Jan. 19, 2023, the bendlet with the number "72" is probably an addition of militants from the Sarthe department.
