Political career

Colas-Roy joined the Socialist Party (PS) following right-wing candidate Jean-Marie Le Pen's qualification for the second round of the 2002 presidential election. He eventually left the PS in 2014.^[2]

In parliament, Colas-Roy served on the Committee on Sustainable Development and Spatial Planning. From 2019 until 2020, he was also a member of the Committee on Legal Affairs. In this capacity, he was in charge of environmental issues within LREM.^[3] In addition to his committee assignments, he was part of the French-Spanish Parliamentary Friendship Group.^[4]

In September 2018, following the appointment of François de Rugy to the government, Colas-Roy supported the candidacy of Barbara Pompili as president of the National Assembly.^[5] When Richard Ferrand was elected instead, he stood as a candidate to succeed him as chairman of the LREM parliamentary group. His candidacy was endorsed by Pompili, among others.^[6] In an internal vote, however, he came in sixth out of seven; the position went to Gilles Le Gendre instead.^[7]

He lost his seat to Cyrielle Chatelain of EELV in the second round of the 2022 election.^[8]
