The government has fallen, and Michel Barnier is out. What comes next? Some people say presidential elections. Others say a rotating cast of soon to be defeated prime ministers, or government by decree.
Marlon goes over the scene where Barnier knew he was done, as well as the plans by France’s political forces to capitalize on the moment.
The goal? Winning in 2027 - or whenever the next election is.
