Philippe Gosselin (French pronunciation: [filip ɡɔslɛ̃]; born 23 October 1966) is a French lawyer and politician of The Republicans (LR) who has been serving as a member of the National Assembly of France since the 2007 elections, representing the Manche department.[1][2]
In parliament, Gosselin serves on the Committee on Legal Affairs. In addition to his committee assignments, he is a member of the French-South African Parliamentary Friendship Group and the French-Spanish Parliamentary Friendship Group.[3] He is also part of the French delegation to the Franco-German Parliamentary Assembly.[4]
Following Christian Jacob's election as LR chairman, Gosselin announced his candidacy to succeed him as leader of the party's parliamentary group. In an internal vote in November 2019, he eventually came in last out of six candidates; the position went to Damien Abad instead.[5]
Since 2022, Gosselin has also been one of six National Assembly members who serve as judges of the Cour de Justice de la République (CJR).[6]
