10:02 pm
welcome to the program. what we began this hour in france were early estimate suggest present. manuel micron has fallen short of an outright majority in parliament after a strong performance by rival policies. now the initial results follow 2nd round legislative elections on sunday. emanuel mack on one a 2nd presidential term that was in april. he is seeking a number of reforms. you wants to raise the retirement age in france and also work towards strengthening european union integration. but he could now struggle to push through those reforms. so macros camp is projected to win 224 seats, making it the largest block in parlin, but that is short of the 289 number that's required for a majority abroad. left green lines headed by john, and i'll sure is on track to become the largest opposition party with predicted 149
10:03 pm
seats. but big surprise of the night is the prediction that maureen la pens at far right. national riley has made a huge gains that go live now to natasha butler in paris and, and natasha. i think it's not yet even 2 months since president micron defeated the fall right in the presidential election. now he is struggling to retain his ruling majority in the national assembly with important gains for both the fall, right and the radical left well, what we're saying is i fees projected results or anything to go buy is a lot more fragmented parliament, the hedge prison micro has the biggest party in the parliament has centrist lions, but he doesn't have a majority. so what he's going to have to do, of course, is look around and see what a line says he can build. yes, big gains for the new left with lines of greens,
10:04 pm
the socialist communist and the fall left. they were projected to do well in the selection. they would be pleased with course they didn't themselves gain a majority. i began to say for the fall, right. and the conservatives, let me bring in now a law committee, she is a journalist here in person has been watching this results with me. law, prison micro hasn't got the majority said he would have wanted. what is that going to mean? and was he going to do now? that means that she cannot pass his reforms alone with only his correlation. the correction is already made up of different parties. so alone, imminent thought he cannot govern the country. so they will need probably to make an alliance with the right tween volcano from this group probably be very complicated because he didn't have to be count is divided between those who want to support the presidential coalition and all those who made very clear that they do not want such, such as strategy. there's going to be very difficult indeed for macro, not uneasy,
10:05 pm
few weeks. we're also seeing the far right marine the pen having made some real gains in the selection. yes. indeed. games that were not really in for gas, in the surveys. so it's quite a huge surprise and it's a cervical record for might have been 14 because the percent trickled was back in the eighty's and it's only about 30 deputies. so this is a very important game for mine of n o. that means her party will have more means to be accounted power and they will get also more media coverage. and they will get to use some institutional tools to fight my emitter mccombs policy. i know committee, thank you very much indeed. so looks as if we have a parliament in france, you might say the reflects a lot more the, the voting patterns and trends that we've seen in recent years. a greater presence of the far right and the right. a greater presence of the left and of course i imagine manual my call centers lines having to deal with all this. and we also know

10:17 pm
recent memory. it's being held off to candidates, fell to secure at least 50 percent of the vote in the 1st round. last month. colombians choosing between gustavo petro rudolph, hernandez, both promising radical change, but with vastly different agendas. august over pedro is a former left wing gorilla, and the former mayor of bog ties promising reforms to tackle inequality and protect the environment of victory. them would marcus wing to the left in colombian politics and usher in the country's 1st left wing leader. his opponent, construction magnates, rudolph hernandez, a political outsiders. hahn is social media to energize his campaign and promises to drain the swamp of corrupt politicians. echoing the words of form, u. s. president donald trump. as there is terry's, a bow is in bogota, forest, and has more on the level of support focus, travel, petro, but been talking to lots of people here. and everyone is wondering exactly that, whether columbia is ready to have
10:18 pm
a left wing trusted. and this is the 3rd presidential bid for will double paid fiddle. he was left when guerrilla in his youth. he has then become an economist, a season politician, a senate or the mayor of what i. and he's the man that is promising to carry out profound reforms in this country. his promising to rethink oil and gas exploitation in columbia. he says that for example, fracking will be banned. he's also asking to rethink and hoping to rethink the so called war on drugs. he's also promised to fight in equality. and when you talk to many of the people that have come here, those who are vault him for him, say that he's the man to carry out those reforms. but then you talk to other people, those who say that they cannot forget his past, that they cannot forget that he was part of a left wing group that he was involved in fighting against the columbian state. others here are terrified that columbia could become the next of venezuela because many people in columbia have seen what has happened in neighboring venezuela with
10:19 pm
millions of people being a massive economic crisis as they are. so the big question is that paid it off? if he becomes columbia next, this precedent, this he would be, this would be the 1st time the left makes it because those who tried in the past were killed. so the fact that he has made it this far is a historic for this country. there's also some concerns about the possibility of voter irregularity. hetero had been very active on social media and come now he's been asking the electoral counsel that there's been some of that lord votes that had been distributed that they were marked in areas where he the majority of the people vote for him. he has also said that they had not been allowed to revise the software being used to count the boat. so this is a major concern because of something that happened during the legislative elections earlier this year. so that's a concern and african so mostly because if there is a questioning of this whole process, this could end in political violence. this chris flores, people on to the streets,
