France is facing further political chaos after the country’s latest prime minister, Sébastien Lecornu, resigned after just 26 days in the role.
He was appointed after François Bayrou’s government collapsed when MPs refused to back his budget. Bayrou was himself installed after Michel Barnier was ousted last December.
Lecornu quit a day after unveiling his cabinet, which was largely unchanged from Bayrou’s and was fiercely criticised across the board by parties in the National Assembly, who threatened to vote it down.
