What do you want them to say? "The current Government of France has been voted out" and that's it? The reason news companies give more emphasis and use language such as that is because it means that people stay engaged and interested in what they are watching, which allows them to appeal to as broad an audience as possible, and to make sure that people completely understand what is happening. Writing scripts as if they were textbooks would undermine the transmission of the facts; if you want a dull delivery of facts ask for an AI to explain what is happening or go to Wikipedia.

Hell nah😭 those politicians are nothing but Opportunists. Le Pen just wants power, and communists are trying to make a comeback. It’s simply radicals taking advantage of the situation, as always.
I'll educate you, the "right" was in government (they had 5% of the vote !!!!! but macron put them in charge (democracy anyone?) The left coalition is just the left, no far left got elected as MP (far left: that would have been the NPA (Nouveau Party Anticapitaliste) but marine lepen is far right, her party being created by her father and former nazies and SS)
There is a far left too , it’s the communist party which has 10 deputies. The communist party is in the left union but in minority. That’s why it’s the left union
Because the left coalition is composed of left parties of various degree, LFI being the furthest left, but for better image, they just call it "left". And on the right, there is a normal "right" but it's become so small and weak that they have no impact whatsoever. Far right is gaining momentum so that's why in France you will mostly hear about "left", "far-right" and Macron.
As a Frenchman I can tell you that your lecture is all wrong, most of the people in our country were for the prime minister to go and are for the president Macron to finally leave for good. A recent survey said we were more than 70% wishing for it. Macron is not the president of France, is the president of the riches in France and his politics put the country where it is today. We are struggling but our riches have never been as rich. It makes no sense and lead to the rise of the far right party which is a curse. No far right and far left did not unite to make Barnier fall, the left alliance, not far left but left, presented a censorship of the government and the far right vote for it even if in the text one of the blame made to the government was being to close to the far right, which they were as they thought it would make them stay in place longer, but Marine Lepen is aiming for more so she voted it. It's a single vote on a single subject, in no way an alliance of extremes, Macron is not the good guy here. If the government fall it's his fault in the first place, he's the one who refused to accept the people's vote at the last parliament elections this summer (left came first, far right second) and elected a member of the old right which came 4th !!! Hence why we're here today.

France is a semi-presidential republic, a republic in which a president exists alongside a prime minister and a cabinet, with the latter two being responsible to the legislature of the state. It differs from a parliamentary republic in that it has an executive president independent of the legislature. There are two distinct subtypes of semi-presidentialism: premier-presidentialism and president-parliamentarism. Under the premier-presidential system, the prime minister and cabinet are exclusively accountable to parliament. The president may choose the prime minister and cabinet, but only the parliament may approve them and remove them from office with a vote of no confidence. This system is much closer to pure parliamentarism. This subtype is used in France.
I love hiw the press make it seem like its unfashionnable for politicians to go against a mini dictator. They are just doing their jobs and putting in checks and balances. Non of this would be happening if the MEDEF was not trying to put on ordinary people the debt that the rich and powerful have caused by putting the money in their pockets.
I love it when foreigners try and take a jab at Britain. Yes, we know, mate. The kettle is on. But out of intrest what country are you from that is so great? Im sure i wont get a reply.
I feel like every government in Europe keeps collapsing 😂 first Great Britain, then Germany and now France. But this perfectly resembles the political instability of Western Europe

It must have been hard to find two person who actually loved the government Because the fall of Barnier was expected and hoped ever since he was nominated Edit to add : you called Barnier a "coalition government". The coalition was between the two smallest groups in the parliament
Typical BBC. The left were described as "left wing" and the right were described as "hard right". Do you have to be Karl Marx to be considered "hard left" now?
It's because these are accurate terms, they don't describe how valid the ideas are- imo this french leftist party is only a bit less ret@rded than the NF, this is coming from someone who is generally left wing. Stop trying to both sides something. What you are doing is looking at a dark red car and a light blue car and saying 'no it's actually light red car, typical bias' because you feel uncomfortable with the implication of a dark red car. Why you feel uncomfortable about this label is your problem not mine.
European politics are not American, matthew. Americans use exaggerated terms for political ideologies because they only have two parties to compare. In contrast to Americans, Europeans can use terms like "far right" or "far left" way more accurately because there literally are dozens of other political parties to compare. If a party's policies are on the far end of a political lineup, the word "far" or "hard" works perfectly.
The left in France refers to the New Popular Front, which is basically a coalition of all sorts of leftist parties, ranging from centre-left to far-left (France Unbowed, for example, led by Mélenchon, is sometimes called far-left, although it’s debatable, but the Socialist Party is centre-left, and there are many other parties there as well). The far-right, meanwhile, is the National Rally, which is a single party, not a broad coalition. So I would say left and far-right is correct here.
The left that is elected in France is just the left, the far left didn't get MPs and marine lepen is far right, her father founder the Fn/Rn with former members of the SS
@PeterPeter-pr2hi Mélenchon's party "Unbowed France" is classified by the interior ministry of France as "left" not fat left, that's the right and ultraliberals (macron) trying to shove everything that isn't them into "extremism" like thatcher and her "there is no alternative"
Common Britain, show you’re great, be next, get rid of those clowns in Government! Don’t like French, but gosh they can express their feelings so clearly 👌🏻
The political crisis in France essentially started when Macron called snap elections in June. This has been months in the making. No direct connection with Germany, South Korea or the US.
🇮🇳 The issue began in the aftermath of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. They were already struggling with their own domestic problems, so how can Macron support Ukraine in executing the conflict? It would be better to stop this war through diplomatic channels and focus on domestic issues. The French President has a moral obligation to the French people to address their issues and uplift the economy.
Collapsed is the term used by countries who have a prime minister. It’s not the BBC trying to mislead you, it’s just term used for what has happened. The government of France, the executive branch and its ministers, are gone. Ofc the word means far worse things in the context of American Government, where the government executive branch is strictly separated from the legislative branch

Not quite, even though Scholz has lost his majority in the Bundestag (German Parliament) he isn't really under thread of being removed by a no confidence vote. In Germany a motion of confidence (called Vertrauensfrage) by the Government and a motion of no confidence (Misstrauensantrag) don't have the same effect: The first one does allow the President to dissvolve Parliament or to declare a legislative emergency (a mechanism similar to Article 49.3 of the French Constition which can only be used for 6 months) and the second one allows Parliament to elect a new Chancellor. Unlike France, Britain, or the Weimar Republic no confidence votes against the Chancellor that don't nominate a successor are not permitted.
@@unpoldq3117 I don`t think, Scholz will be in office much longer. There is a very good chance, that Merz will be elected chancellor soon. According to recent polls, the CDU would get 32% of the votes and about 241 seats in the Bundestag. The Vertrauensfrage will almost inevitably lead to Neuwahlen in the near future and currently the CDU is in the lead.
Like governments everywhere, they are way too top heavy and consume so much of the tax base unnecessarily. Politicians are like flies on a hot turd, disliked and everywhere. I guarantee that every country could lose 30% of their politicians and the economies will flourish.

Frances liberalism led to this problem........ half of the country having different views and the other half viewing the other way (invisible of civil war)
Hi so what this doesn’t say is that this government had absolutely zero legitimacy to rule. There were elections in July and Barnier’s party roughly got 4% of the votes and 6% of the seats at the parliament. Macron was in charge of naming a prime minister and the left (not “far-left” as BBC says), who got the most seats, gave a name. Macron refused to name her because he didn’t wanna give the power over to the left alliance and preferred joining the right, which was extremely anti-democratic. This was not a “this was the only alliance possible” situation, he juste refused to name the leftist candidate. The situation now is extremely incertain but this was not an impulsive decision, it’s a return to democracy.
Barnier tried to do what no french government has done since the 1970s: pass a balanced budget. This was apparantly such a great crime, the far-left and far-right joined together to oust him.
Left and far right. There's no far left party in the French parliament. In France we have something called the constitutional council and they have the task to study and categorise different political parties and none of the leftist parties in parliament whether you like them or not are far left. Only one party in France is Far left and it's the NPA but they don't have any seat in parliament. Some people just love to call any leftist party they hate "Far left". Thank God in France we have a body that disproves these ridiculous qualifications.

It must have been hard to find two person who actually loved the government
Because the fall of Barnier was expected and hoped ever since he was nominated
Edit to add : you called Barnier a "coalition government". The coalition was between the two smallest groups in the parliament
Typical BBC. The left were described as "left wing" and the right were described as "hard right". Do you have to be Karl Marx to be considered "hard left" now?
It's because these are accurate terms, they don't describe how valid the ideas are- imo this french leftist party is only a bit less ret@rded than the NF, this is coming from someone who is generally left wing. Stop trying to both sides something.
What you are doing is looking at a dark red car and a light blue car and saying 'no it's actually light red car, typical bias' because you feel uncomfortable with the implication of a dark red car. Why you feel uncomfortable about this label is your problem not mine.
European politics are not American, matthew. Americans use exaggerated terms for political ideologies because they only have two parties to compare.
In contrast to Americans, Europeans can use terms like "far right" or "far left" way more accurately because there literally are dozens of other political parties to compare. If a party's policies are on the far end of a political lineup, the word "far" or "hard" works perfectly.
The left in France refers to the New Popular Front, which is basically a coalition of all sorts of leftist parties, ranging from centre-left to far-left (France Unbowed, for example, led by Mélenchon, is sometimes called far-left, although it’s debatable, but the Socialist Party is centre-left, and there are many other parties there as well).
The far-right, meanwhile, is the National Rally, which is a single party, not a broad coalition. So I would say left and far-right is correct here.
The left that is elected in France is just the left, the far left didn't get MPs and marine lepen is far right, her father founder the Fn/Rn with former members of the SS
@PeterPeter-pr2hi Mélenchon's party "Unbowed France" is classified by the interior ministry of France as "left" not fat left, that's the right and ultraliberals (macron) trying to shove everything that isn't them into "extremism" like thatcher and her "there is no alternative"

why cant this happen in canada
Good riddance
That was a boneheaded move by the PM. I'm not surprised they ousted him.
🇮🇳 The issue began in the aftermath of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. They were already struggling with their own domestic problems, so how can Macron support Ukraine in executing the conflict? It would be better to stop this war through diplomatic channels and focus on domestic issues. The French President has a moral obligation to the French people to address their issues and uplift the economy.
Awesome, can we get the same for Starmer now please?
I second that, mate
No, because Labour party have majority in commons, while party of french prime minister is only 4th biggest voting block in French parliament.

Collapsed is the term used by countries who have a prime minister. It’s not the BBC trying to mislead you, it’s just term used for what has happened. The government of France, the executive branch and its ministers, are gone. Ofc the word means far worse things in the context of American Government, where the government executive branch is strictly separated from the legislative branch

Unfortunately labor government has the majority!
Not quite, even though Scholz has lost his majority in the Bundestag (German Parliament) he isn't really under thread of being removed by a no confidence vote. In Germany a motion of confidence (called Vertrauensfrage) by the Government and a motion of no confidence (Misstrauensantrag) don't have the same effect: The first one does allow the President to dissvolve Parliament or to declare a legislative emergency (a mechanism similar to Article 49.3 of the French Constition which can only be used for 6 months) and the second one allows Parliament to elect a new Chancellor. Unlike France, Britain, or the Weimar Republic no confidence votes against the Chancellor that don't nominate a successor are not permitted.
@@unpoldq3117 I don`t think, Scholz will be in office much longer. There is a very good chance, that Merz will be elected chancellor soon. According to recent polls, the CDU would get 32% of the votes and about 241 seats in the Bundestag. The Vertrauensfrage will almost inevitably lead to Neuwahlen in the near future and currently the CDU is in the lead.
Like governments everywhere, they are way too top heavy and consume so much of the tax base unnecessarily. Politicians are like flies on a hot turd, disliked and everywhere. I guarantee that every country could lose 30% of their politicians and the economies will flourish.

Hi so what this doesn’t say is that this government had absolutely zero legitimacy to rule. There were elections in July and Barnier’s party roughly got 4% of the votes and 6% of the seats at the parliament. Macron was in charge of naming a prime minister and the left (not “far-left” as BBC says), who got the most seats, gave a name. Macron refused to name her because he didn’t wanna give the power over to the left alliance and preferred joining the right, which was extremely anti-democratic. This was not a “this was the only alliance possible” situation, he juste refused to name the leftist candidate. The situation now is extremely incertain but this was not an impulsive decision, it’s a return to democracy.
Our turn next?
so there's only left and far right great reporting yet again bbc
Barnier tried to do what no french government has done since the 1970s: pass a balanced budget. This was apparantly such a great crime, the far-left and far-right joined together to oust him.
Left and far right. There's no far left party in the French parliament. In France we have something called the constitutional council and they have the task to study and categorise different political parties and none of the leftist parties in parliament whether you like them or not are far left. Only one party in France is Far left and it's the NPA but they don't have any seat in parliament. Some people just love to call any leftist party they hate "Far left". Thank God in France we have a body that disproves these ridiculous qualifications.
