French Prime Minister Michel Barnier’s government is on the brink of collapse as far-left and far-right parties prepare to file motions of censure. Barnier triggered article 49.3 of the Constitution regarding social security funding, leading to increased tensions within the left. The New Popular Front struggles to unify amid debates on governance strategies should they gain power, while the Socialist Party calls for responsible compromise, contrasting with the hardline stance of La France Insoumise. The situation raises questions about the future of the left in France amidst potential elections.
