. francis president suffers a major setback in any of the corns party loses control of the national assembly and the far left and fall right. make historic gains in the midst the to the election. so how would he govern over the next 5 years? this is inside story. ah, ah, hello, welcome to the program. i'm adrian finnegan. francis president is facing 5 years of

political turmoil following unprecedented results from the legislative election. emanuel macklin, centrist coalition has lost its majority in the national assembly. it's the 1st time that's happened to a president's party in 20 years. the biggest winners with the far right of the far left, less than half of eligible voters, cast a ballot in the 2nd round on sunday, the national assembly speaker lost his seats along with the ministers for health and the environment to where did the seats go? well, the national assembly chamber has 577 members. and manual mccoy needed 289 seats to keep a majority. and although the president, centrist ensemble coalition remains the biggest party, it secured only $245.00 seats left, we alliance, the new ecological and social popular union dub. nope, united behind the left leader, jean luc miller. sean, it's set to be the main opposition group. with 131 seats, and the biggest surprise miss the far right leader marine la pens,

national rally party scored 89 seats up from just 8. 5 years ago. the traditional right, the republicans saw their vote collapse to 61 seats. the remaining 51, a held by other parties or leaders of the far left on the far right say they're determined to complicate microns legislative agenda. did you know she just, jo, it's a totally unexpected situation. absolutely unheard of. the collapse of the presidential party is total, and no majority is presented. we have achieved the political objectives that we had said ourselves in less than a month to bring down the one who with such arrogance, had twisted the arm of the whole country who had been elected without knowing what for. oh, suppose could someone come to the acquisition? i think that everyone considers that this is a victory for the last ambler man as united were entering the assembly with a very powerful group of and peace with the 1st opposition party ahead of left hans

and semi's. and consequently, we're going to be able to work as an opposition group, as i had requested from the french people, we will operate with full power, with all the means that are granted by the constitution in opposition group, which is the 1st one in the assembly. we'll began our discussion in just a moment, but 1st joan, a whole reports from paris. a dreadful election this for emmanuel macaroni and his centrists in parliament have lost a 100 of their seats and their absolute majority. they will now have to find new alliances in parliament. either on a case by case basis, or some sort of formal hook up there to pass and the legislation that all of the likelihood is they'll start talking immediately to the traditional right, the republicans with whom they've worked before they have 61 seats. micron needs 44 seats to hit the majority line, no guarantee that that will be successful. and so there is at least the prospect of deadlocked government over the next 5 years with an economic crisis worsening here

in france. that's not the only problem. they faced, the centrists increasingly hemmed in now in parliament between rising forces on the left and the far left and the far right with marine la pens, success the success of her national rally party. and there's an additional question over participation. a majority of french voters didn't take part in this election. 3 quarters of young voters between 18 and 24, didn't take part in this election. they simply don't have faith and trust in their politicians to solve their problems. and so the possibility is that rather like the ga, ga protests during macros, 1st term that during his 2nd again, people may choose to take their problems to the streets. i'm don't hope for inside story. ah. so let's bring it our guests from paris were joined by political analyst amid create in london is sir philip malia who is a professor of french and european politics at university college, london, and from santander fabrics, party, a ceo of rasmussen, global

a political consultancy gentlemen. welcome to inside story. let's start with you than that. i'm it. and what do you make of this election results? was this election, as some french newspapers have said, a political earthquake, to what extent does to make up now of the national assembly, make france ungovernable for the next 5 years. what it is and vogue ungovernable for the french friends and the current friendship. manuel micro, i believe it's a huge victory for the left east and the other party, which is the far right 1000000 the pen. they have lost more than $100.00 seats in the french parliament. so i believe it's a victory for the left is. we've seen that the majority, you couldn't, you know, or go on the ground to in order to persuade 2 arguments for the french addiction. the importance of the parliamentary election. when we've seen it's a huge defeat for the french president. these also, you know, a lot of doubt about the democracy do not forget that we have the you know,

the movement. busy which were very, you know, the under, again, these, the french britain which is very popular. so i believe now the up engineer to which is the important that went there. a lot of people, you know, forget about it. the, the potential is more than 52 percent that the people do not vote. we've seen no, we are in the same scenario that in 1988, we do the former president, pos for me to own doctor when he had to consider that he's a majority in the parliament. so he had to compose with the communist party and the subjects. so we have in the same scenario. and this is, will of course change the political map in the french parliament. so i believe in all these huge doubts about the democracy, but also french people are fed up. they do not believe in democracy. and i think the most challenge is to convince them that democracy is very important for our

institution. ok, philip, molly, in london, professor, to what extent them will the next 5 years be about torturous negotiation, political compromise for both the president and his party? will they be able to find some consensus and some parliamentary stability? yes indeed. hello, a festival? yes, michael t in mike one self will have to learn to compromise something. he hasn't done much to date because falling short of 4344 seats in parliament is a lot and he will need absolutely to get those votes in parliament whenever his party and government wants to to pass legislation or to bleed a legislative legislation which might prove controversial with other parliamentary groups, notably with the left. and there's only one way for my call. now,

given that he's got a solid block to his left with nips, which has really largely increased total share of the votes and seats is to turn to the right. and to turn to the republicans, the party of former president sock rosie. and this party, of course, could really coalesce and work alongside michael sparky, on a number of issues or to be economy policies. either it's the position party, i think the president of the party said it yesterday on french t v. we are in position party. so in fact, the stakes are very high because you will have to compromise, but also to give, to make some concessions with, with the right. and it remains to be seen whether the ride will want to answer in a correlation. even if it's a kind of a undock type of collision, not a formal one because of course being in a position party let the republicans will think about what comes next in 5 years time michael will have to retire as president he confir on again. so of course,

this volunteer will sort of think twice whether to commit itself to a party and a president which are increasingly and popular for resources and santander, than what concessions will have an annual macro. have to make to ensure the support of the republicans in the assembly, and will that mean that his government has to shift to the right? well, i think that's for sure question. that's not necessarily what the problem for when we go to the rice over the past 5 years, i think the main kind of compromise you can't make towards the easy thing. but then surely you minister who's got i don't was coming from e. oh, you know credibility with the service you've right to be able to reach out and work with them. but i think more globally what this election stella was is because this

has been brewing for, for why and go where you have to imagine a lot of french people, french voters so that they have already got to twice in the 2nd round. the last part of my call by this book because basically what i don't my co or an extra like and there was a many principal service, some that could finally overcome the human actions yesterday. if i think about to go for a different candidate or they prefer and also not the kind of freak accidents, but actually it was growing in french politics for the past 5 years or more just to finish this in the result of the main main street parties mostly the socially spots tricky over there because of the,

disappearing and seeking the about to send a party and the form of that you know, to based on extraneous and just to be a rather unhealthy landscape or democracy where you ought to extreme the next 5 years we tell us, if you saw the nurse managed to be something that is both in just a single sent the wrong party, but some political propositions that you want track to, to friends just don't necessarily to go. and i know that extremely true, right. ok. i want to pick up on what you're saying that and put the same question to all 3 of you here. if you can give me the reasonably brief answers, i want to know whether you think to what extent president micron is to is the

architect here, is on problems. we'll put that one to, to have it for us. what of course, is the author p, enter it the because of him, of the, you know, the far right on to meet in the french parliament for the 1st time. he was the company that were the, a global beings. he was the, the low or the slumber for the close, which is a separate is, it was the company, the doctor wants to increase, you know, the age of retirement, to $60.00, to $65.00. so the, all, all these measures are very popular and that's why we have this consequences of, you know, also clearly a combination of what reforms. ok. phillip yes, i really agree with. watch all your guests just said here. i think clearly michael came and i think that's probably something really to bear in mind when he was elected 5 years ago for the 1st time he was before a minister in

a socialist led government. so it came really to the presidency with a kind of ora or pro 5 like over young modernization, but which, which could somehow reconcile, you know, bits of the left and bits of the right. and that's exactly hi e, so called sold is political projects. i'm neither left, we all know right when i'm in a way both of them, let's take the best of both worlds in a way. and it seems that now 5 years down the line is lost is a so called left wing, you know, i, people also came with them from the socialist party, you know, with moran p's, or simply voters who used to vote for the center martin social party until 2017 were quite appealed by his political project or not modernization, but now it's very clear that on economic issues, but also on law and order on cultural society issues, it can be labeled center santa let that that's over. no one believes in that now is

clearly a man on the right. some pretty very much to the right. all those things is a kind of central righty. depends on your how you you're on, on your take on that. but anyway, no one takes him as a sort of centralized leader. so that's why clearly is now in a kind of trouble and can only turn to the right to, to carry on and to try to, to, to seek a majority of race. to what extent is this for crowns across own own fault? i think to, to go into the question of whether it's his fault is not. this is the right way to put it out. we said that yes. can advantage of what you so many before many other actors that the fall of the tradition of parties is perceived associates. you had this why he was elected as the, as us on the set of last ticket to us a sense of leader even the week over on the, on the right. and, and he so that maybe before others, and he took advantage and you got elected to everybody surprise. so,

but i think he was one active creature of the collapse of these enter a left and to right party from. however, the he's responsibilities that the previous speaker is right that he has been using or gone off their conservative to, to hog right eyes of national identity or no and older. which in a way has normalized yet gender carried by don't as long as you know. and now they have busy, busy, multiplied by 10. the numbers of in he's sitting there. i saw minister now. ok, i'm it. what is this election a mean for a john? luke manor, sean, at his block, which is, which is now the, the biggest opposition force in france. well for of course, it's a tremendous victory for john incremental shown the left is because he, you know, he realized a huge coalition with the, you know, the popular the silver area and the left east and the ecologist and other political party. so i believe lowered it to of course,

a tremendous victory for johnny camino joel. and of course, johnny commercial. we play a role in the these new coalition which is called nips. but i believe what is the most important thinks is now the republican fraud has been explored because of him under micro. he did not give any instruction in order to vote for the left east against the, against the far right. and do not forget that when we have the presidential election m unremarkable way beginning the lift is in order to gain the supervision election. and if to the he's a president is because of the left is waters that to help him to win this election . and this is, i believe it's a very important point. now we don't have this record again for front. and it's a very dangerous state for this president who normalized the far right party in the french vitamin, which is, i believe it's will be very dangerous for the stability or the french society. and

the, the political map in the french apartment, or what, philip, what do you make of the success of the national riley of marina pen in this election? 8 to 89 seats? or what does that tell us? well, if you, if you compare with your the guess just said that he was tremendous success for the united, less news i would back to this are bates. i would, i would say they've made considerable gains, but it's not sort of tremendous success. i think you could argue now, although she got faller seats than united let, let's bear in mind that united lives is at least full. it's not 5 parties together . so that's the put to put things in perspective. so in the end, it's not maybe not such massive gains, whereas for her, you know, she used to have 8 and p including yourself in the previous parliament. now she's got $89.00, and that's really an achievement. and i, so of course, very worrying for all those in france, society and elsewhere thing that of course,

the far right and may not empowerment will be a good idea for france, for europe and the world in general. yes. and that what, what it shows is, is that the fall rides, the national rally, keeps making gains for very long time. one, use the same french politics, french, political commentators used to say there's a glass ceiling for the far right. you know, they will be doing quite well in the presidential election because it's nominal and action personal. the parents father and all to are well known to the public so they will get good schools. however, they will never get elected where luke last time around. she can even closer to power and michael, the margin between michael and herself. wasn't that being any more? the same applies now with the other election legislative election where the party until now couldn't make significant gains in the 2 ballots match a retired system. now they're able to do so they able to win 89,

so 89 constituencies and not simply in the traditional best students on the south east and north and north east. but now it appear in these region in acu turn in. don't, don't you, in central france they get and p selected. so that shows that there's a nationalization of the far right vote. it's a party which may not be seen anymore by some frankfurters as a threat to democracy as an extreme party. and that's why i think everyone opposing the, the far right, the national right in front of the law to worry about race, given that that glass ceiling actually was talking about appears to have been shattered. here can marina depends party any longer be described as, as, as an extreme, as the oversight window shifted. here is it, is it now mainstream when i think its clinic streaming the views and the carries but clearly a busy groups into the political,

the french political system. this is of course, to worry, especially when we've come after my course been days you need your style just as to i had to do the previous part. i think you did the last week. courtney showed dead binding off. looks like the biggest winner on the side by side. this is a very fragmented and my prediction is going to have quite a lot of challenge to stick together. each group will try to form their groups and i think they already some, some tension between companies leader and show you look at my call trying to steer the french environment away from that question. so i think this is probably going to be fine with each other as we read the

speaker is really coming from the career a force and we really prefer for the next presidential and philip, i'm just going to come back to you and i'll be with you again, in a moment, i have it but, but with several high profiles in the president's party, voted out in the selection, the president himself, as you said, unable to run again at the end of this this, this term. what is the future for, for on marsh or renee song? so i mean, does it have a future without mccall? well, sir, it's a very important question and very hard to tell right now what will be the future on ash and particularly the one such and see as you just pointed out, is that michael will not run against will probably retire from axis politics in less than 5 years time, you might argue enough time for a new young leader to merge and replace it well. there they are, you know, like the former prime minister. well, felipe, which,

by the way doesn't belong to all nash, it's another small particle horizon. you might be, you might step in so an older people might step in, but i think it's for the time being. michael has a problem with i to recall, nash. it's a bit of an empty shell. and that election showed again that they are no real activists on the ground. there, there are no local barons the, this is what you need for a party to be successful and durable. you know, and, and b exist have a long life and it doesn't have that. and clearly, if you add to it the fact that the 3 ministers last election and michael's warm before the election, any minister losing the battle in that constituency will have to resign and leave the government say that and the speaker of the house also last is seat so he will have to route to, to go. so this is really a party where you don't even have in this current legislator, you know,

heavy weights are all the few heavy weights he had. he lost them yesterday. so that's a very difficult situation. and yes, for the time being that the future of the light recall marsha looks quite uncertain . i mean we've, we've spent the last 20 minutes or so talking about an extraordinary election, but we have to remember ultimately, but this was on a voter turnout of 46 percent. how or what does that tell us about how french voters feel about french politics? why did more than half of the countries electorate stay away? well, very good question you asked me, does. i think it's very important today these a lot of cru, you know, crisis in france that do not forget that we have deal of this movement and the russian invasion. as a result, we have the inflation and people do not see a change for themselves. so they see that the same property,

they've seen the inequality, and they've seen that they're not and you know the race of the salary, the minimum wage or salary. that's why johnny national wants to increase the minimum salary 262103021051000. so $500.00 euro. so i believe people now are fed that did not believe in the democracy. the believe in protesting in the speak, asking for social reform in order to fight in equality and deformity. that's why today, the old french parliament in the relative, did not represent the entire french people. and this is, i think, is a very done her steps for the stability of the regime. the if you can, we him, 5th republic is a losing, now he's an architecture in the our institution. ok. sorry to cut you short. i mean, we're, we're out of time for many thanks to you for being with us gentlemen. i create professor phillip, malia and for bruce party and thank you to for watching. don't forget,
