Following election thriller, will France have world's most democratically representative parliament?

An alliance of French left-wing parties was on course Sunday to beat the far right and President Emmanuel Macron's coalition in a stunning outcome to parliamentary elections that plunges France into new political uncertainty. No one group won an absolute majority in the second round of the poll, which leaves France without any clear path to forming a new government three weeks before the Paris Olympics. With no group even close to the 289 seats needed for an absolute majority to form a government, France 24 is joined by Mathieu Doiret, IPSOS Director of Polling and Knowledge Centre Researcher.
