Legislators have toppled France’s government in a confidence vote. The result on Monday marked a new crisis for Europe’s second-largest economy that obliges President Emmanuel Macron to search for a fourth prime minister in 12 months.
Basically there are three large coalitions one the left, center and right. Those are then made up of individual parties. All three are roughly the same size and Macrons centrist are calling the shots. As obviously the right and left have less they agree on and Macron is president. However both of those groups want to be president and the individual parties want more power for themself as well. So every once in a while the parliament gets blown up, due to the three coalitions fighting.
Add to that a culture of protests and rather strong unions and voila you get hard fights. The good part is that the French rich are genuinly worried about loosing their heads.
