Since its 2015 congress, the party is led by its coordinators and spokespersons Eric Coquerel and Danielle Simonnet. On 2 July 2018 the party withdrew from the Party of European Left, not agreeing with the presence of the Greek party Syriza in the alliance. Around 90 local elected officials (municipal, regional and general councillors), including two members of the Council of Paris, initially joined the party. This number has dropped since then. The PG has not yet run independently in an election, so its base of support is hard to pin-point.
