president macron is within an ace of pulling off the second part of his quiet revolution.he biggest makeover in decades in france's parliament, the national assembly. it's notjust that his en marche! party looks set for a crushing majority, the actual candidates are very different from what went before. half are totally new to politics. half are women, which means the new parliament is likely to be one of the most feminised in the world. the opposition parties, meanwhile, are preparing for the worst, which, in the case of the socialists, could mean a total wipe—out. so great is the president's predicted victory that the big problem may be the lack of opposition. can that, some ask, be good for democracy? emmanuel macron says that he wants french democracy to be alive again, that he wants the french parliament to work, to criticise, to propose. can he do that with a majority so big, with such a big abstention rate? but not all voters see the president's growing power as a problem. translation: haven't we had too much debate over the last few years? the country hasn't moved

president and parliamentarians alike. lucy williamson, bbc news, paris. our correspondent hugh schofield in paris says it's a remarkable achievement for mr macron. ff his feet notjust by becoming president but also then securing a majority that he needs in parliament to see through his programme. as you say, all is done from a standing start less than one year ago. the political party that did not even exist then and looks like it will provide the vast bulk of parliamentarians in the national assembly which will convene after the second round next week. just to be clear, this is the first round of voting and the projection we are talking about is based on exit polls from the first round of voting. there will then be a second round between the two front runners in each of the constituencies. the calculations by different pollsters and media organisations are in concordance and they suggest that the bet that emmanuel macron has paid made has paid off handsomely. what we're hearing now on the airwaves are people saying on a second, mrs too much. it there is no opposition in parliament and were squeezed to the outside there is a danger to democracy.

that's hardly a ringing endorsement for president macron. 1% is the downside for the legitimacy of the election. if the turnout is higher for the have much criteria and many believe that emmanuel macron would get the majority. many probably decided not to go vote because they thought it was a done deal. this is something he will have to take into consideration. mark: thank you very much. the u.s., attorney general jeff sessions will face his former senate colleagues at a hearing tomorrow. he is scheduled to testify before the senate intelligence committee to answer questions about the trump campaigns allegedly ties to russia. kevinerilli joins us from washington, d.c.. what might jeff sessions say that might be new? kevin: this is going to come down to whether or not he had disclosed meetings with russian officials that were previously not reported. according to james comey's testimony in a closed briefing after his public testimony last week, it it seemingly suggests there could be more undisclosed meetings. we don't know whether the attorne

first time we've heard president macron talk about brexit directly to a uk prime minister and he struckacron, among other european leaders, at this delicate time politically for the uk and at a time politically for the uk and at a time of brexit, tried to choose his words carefully but yes, he had a warning for the uk because assumption in the eu is as soon as the brexit negotiations start the british prime minister and her other ministers will go on tours around europe, trying to charm, persuade, bully or bribe individual eu countries to give the uk an advantageous brexit deal. forgett said emmanuel macron today, eu countries have given the negotiating reins to the european commission alone. i'm hearing across europe that he also underlined despite the confusion and arguments in the uk right now, about what kind of brexit is preferable, the eu absolutely expects it to ha. he was pushed at the press conference today and he said, of course the door remains open to the uk to stakes right up until negotiations are finished. we heard a similar message from the eu ear other great power germa

macron's defeated rival for president-- far-right leader marine le pen-- also won a seat. the estimated turnout was the lowest in decades as voters went to the polls for the third time in six weeks in the second and final round of parliamentary elections. almost a year after britain voted in a referendum to leave the european union, the long- awaited brexit negotiations finally begin tomorrow in brussels. british prime minister theresa may has seen her position weakened by the loss of her conservative majority in parliament in last week's election. germany's foreign minister said today a so-called "soft" brexit, in which britain stays in the e.u. single trading market might be possible, if britain were to accept the free movement of workers across borders and other
