France's shock election result

Published 1 year, 7 months ago
Description

France’s far-right party was expected to dominate in the country's election over the weekend, but a surprise swing to the left has resulted in a hung parliament. A left-wing coalition that didn’t exist a few weeks ago won the most seats in the final round of voting, but a divided result means there’s no clear majority winner. We’ll take you through the results and what they mean for the future of France’s Government in today’s deep dive.


Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Zara Seidler
