    • Left Demands Macron's Resignation After Government Falls, Right Leader Remains Silent On Call | N18G

      France's left-wing party, France Unbowed (LFI), demanded President Emmanuel Macron's resignation after Prime Minister Michel Barnier’s government was brought down through a no-confidence vote on December 4. The vote, supported by far-right and left-wing opposition lawmakers, passed with 331 votes, plunging France into a deeper political crisis. LFI’s Mathilde Panot argued that Macron’s entire political agenda had been defeated and called for his departure to resolve the impasse. Barnier, who faced criticism for using special constitutional powers to pass part of an unpopular budget, was expected to resign. The motion followed Macron's decision to call a snap election in June, which led to a polarized parliament. National Rally leader Jordan Bardella, though critical of the government, did not call for Macron’s resignation but opposed the proposed budget, particularly higher taxes. The crisis threatens France’s ability to legislate and address its budget deficit.
