yet the new french president's party — la republique en marche — looks on course to win a landslide victorydecided in the second round of voting next sunday. let's speak to our paris correspondent, hugh schofield. yes, it looks like emmanuel macron has done the double. having won the presidential election in five weeks ago, becoming the youngest ever french president, he has now pulled off this second clue. if the results are borne out next weekend, he will have a party with as many as a50 seats in the 500 and 70 set —— in the assembly. that is coming from nothing. an extraordinary achievement which will rewrite the face of french politics. what it means is that he will first of all be able to see through his programme of reforms unimpeded by having to make deals inside the national assembly. that is very important for the french economy. it also means that we have now in france a man who is emblazoned with this aura of optimism and confidence. everything he has touched so far has turned to gold. contrast that with theresa may, who years meeting here tomorrow, by the way, a woman who called
