Territories of Progress – Social Reformist Movement (French: Territoires de progrès – Mouvement social-réformiste, TDP) is a French political party of the centre[3] to centre-left.[4][5] It was founded in February 2020 by Socialist Party ministers Jean-Yves Le Drian and Olivier Dussopt who had previously defected from that party to join the presidential majority (La République En Marche!) of Emmanuel Macron. Since October 2021, the party's president was Olivier Dussopt. The party constituted the social democratic or centre-left part of the presidential majority.[6]
As of 2022, it had 46 members of Parliament. Élisabeth Borne was a regular member (not an elected member of Parliament) who, on 16 May 2022, was appointed by President Macron as prime minister to replace Jean Castex.
Creation
The party officially launched on 1 February 2020, during a meeting in Pantin, in Seine-Saint-Denis, then presented at a press conference on 2 July 2020.[7] Senator Xavier Iacovelli became its Secretary General.[8] The party defined itself as "social-democratic, reformist, and Europeanist."[9]
