[France braces for political and economic chaos
with Brexit-bashing Michel Barnier
set to be humiliated in no-confidence vote today,
plunging EU's second-biggest economy into turmoil]



[France's government faces no-confidence votes
later today that could spell the end
of the short-lived administration of
Prime Minister Michel Barnier,
plunging the country into uncharted
waters of political chaos.

Barring a last-minute surprise, Barnier - formerly
the EU's chief Brexit negotiator - will be the
first premier to be forced out by a
no-confidence vote in more than 60 years
at a time when his nation is struggling
to tame a massive budget deficit.

France's National Assembly is due
to debate two no-confidence motions
brought by the hard-left and far-right
in a standoff with Barnier after
he forced through a controversial social
security financing bill without a vote.]

bash the brexitbasher, bash

He must resign

i've never understood the french system where the PM is picked by the president

I don't understand how when Macron was PM he was the face of the government whilst Hollande took a back seat as president
And then Macron becomes president but continues to seemly be the face of the government whilst the PMs always take a back seat.

I think it depends on the popularity and charisma of those in the roles.

Putin has been both PM and President, but he's always "The Face."

True. Strange system.
