12/06/2019 (Agence Europe) – Members of the ALDE Group (Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe) decided on Wednesday 12 June to rename it “Renew Europe”. “Our new group in the European Parliament, composed of progressives, liberals, centrists and reformists, has chosen a new name: Renew Europe”, detailed the group in a statement. This new name will be accompanied by a new logo. Renew Europe, which will not have a French version, allows the group to remove the notion of liberalism, as requested by the French Renaissance list, which has joined the group. However, British LibDem MEP Chris Davies has already warned that while this new name would, of course, “satisfy our French partners”, “many of us will continue to refer to the group as a liberal group”.
