Friday, December 06, 2024 - French Prime Minister, Michel Barnier has been ousted after the parliament voted in support of a motion of no confidence.
The members of parliament voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday
night in support of the motion against Barnier by 331 votes out of a total of
577.
The move marks the first time France’s government has
collapsed in a no-confidence vote since 1962 and also makes Barnier the
shortest serving prime minister in French history.
Barnie’s leadership was called into question after “he used
special powers to push through his budget without a vote.”
Marine Le Pen of the far-right National Rally and Éric
Coquerel of the radical left accused the prime minister of failing to listen to
their budget concerns.
His removal came three months after he was appointed in
September as prime minister by President Emmanuel Macron.
Macron had tasked him with forming a unifying government to
serve the country and the French people.
