Will Emmanuel Macron lose his parliamentary majority? | France Elects

In the first of a two-part special of France Elects, as the united left comes ahead of Emmanuel Macron’s party in the first round of the French legislative elections, we look at what this might mean for the French president and what’s to play for in Sunday’s second round. Europe Correspondent Ido Vock discusses the result with Alix Kroeger. They talk about how the left managed to unite, what has happened to the far-right, and what it could mean for Macron if he fails to keep his majority in the French National Assembly. Podcast listeners can subscribe to the New Statesman for just £1 a week for 12 weeks using our special offer.
