A total of 364 deputies voted no confidence in the government, which had been formed less than nine months ago, according to a live broadcast published by the French National Assembly’s page on the “X” platform.
The Bayrou government was formed at the end of last December. François Bayrou will now have to submit his government’s resignation to President Emmanuel Macron, who will, in turn, need to appoint a Prime Minister to form a new government.
François Bayrou, aged 74, took on the role of Prime Minister just nine months ago.
