French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal says he will hand his resignation to President Emmanuel Macron tomorrow morning, adding that he will carry out his functions as long as required.
Attal makes the comments after France’s left-wing New Popular Front coalition won the most seats in the second voting round of parliamentary elections, leading pollsters say, putting them on track for an unexpected win over the far right National Rally (RN) party but short of an absolute majority in parliament.
