LREM meaning in General ?

La République En Marche ! (frequently abbreviated LREM, LaREM, REM or LRM; translatable as The Republic On The Move, Republic Forward, or The Working Republic), sometimes called simply En Marche ! (French: [ɑ̃ maʁʃ]) as its original name, is a centrist and liberal political party in France.

The party was founded on 6 April 2016 by Emmanuel Macron, a former Minister of Economy, Industry and Digital Affairs, who was later elected President of the French Republic in the 2017 presidential election with 66.1% of the second-round vote. Presented as a pro-European party, Macron considers LREM to be a progressive movement, uniting both the left and the right. Following that year's presidential election, the party ran candidates in the 2017 legislative election, including dissidents from the Socialist Party (PS) and The Republicans (LR) as well as minor parties. It won an absolute majority in the National Assembly, securing 308 seats (or 53% of the seats) while collecting only 15.7% of the vote on the first round, and 20.9% on the second round. Its ally, the Democratic Movement (MoDem), secured 42.

LREM accepts globalisation and wants to "modernise and moralise" French politics, combining social and economic liberalism. It is positioned mainly in the centre, although it has also been described as centre-right. The movement generally accepts members from other parties at a higher rate than other political parties in France, and does not impose any fees on members who want to join. The party, which is seen as the pro-European party in France, has been a member of the European parliamentary group Renew Europe since June 2019.
