Karl Olive (born 29 March 1969) is a French sports journalist, television producer, entrepreneur and politician who has represented the 12th constituency of the Yvelines department in the National Assembly since 2022.[1] He is a former member of The Republicans (LR), which he left in 2019 prior to joining La République En Marche! (LREM, now Renaissance) in 2022.

Political career

Olive served as Mayor of Poissy from 2014 until his resignation in 2022 following his election to Parliament. In the National Assembly, he succeeded Florence Granjus who did not run for reelection, winning election as a deputy with 59.9% of the second-round vote. Olive has also held a seat in the Departmental Council of Yvelines since 2015 for the canton of Poissy.

Amid the first Yellow vests protests in 2018, Olive brought a group of mayors from his department, Yvelines, together with President Emmanuel Macron to explain to Macron how he needed to change.[2]
