Unbowed France, a French far-left party, on Sunday started a crowdfunding plan to help finance its European Union election campaign.
“Become our bank," Unbowed France, or La France Insoumise, said in several tweets, some of which included guidelines on how to pay money into the party’s accounts. “Take part in the people’s loan," it said, adding that “we guarantee you your loan will be refunded" within a year.
