French left suggests former communist MP Huguette Bello for premiership • FRANCE 24 English

Following France's election runoff Sunday which left the lower house of parliament without any overall majority, but a broad alliance – the New Popular Front (NFP) – of Socialists, Communists, Greens and the hard-left France Unbowed (LFI) which won the most seats, President Macron is poised to appoint the next prime minister. While the alliance struggle to come up with a name that all can agree on, the latest speculation is centred on Huguette Bello, 73, a former communist MP and currently the president of the regional council in France's overseas territory La Reunion, as a possible consensus candidate.
