French Prime Minister Francois Bayro lost a vote on the deputies, where he ended nine months in his position during a period of chaos in Parliament in the country, the National Assembly.
Bayro, 74, was the fourth prime minister within two years during the era of President Emmanuel Macron, who was overwhelmed by his second term due to political instability.
The Prime Minister’s minority government, issued to 44 billion euros (38 billion pounds) of the budget cuts to address the escalating public debts in France and is now actually collapsing.
The BBC is looking at what was removed by the deputies And what can happen after that.
How did we get here?
French President Emmanuel Macron took a gambling in June 2024.
In the face of the loss of bruises of his party in the European Parliament’s vote, he described the sudden parliamentary elections that he hoped to achieve a “clear majority in serenity and harmony.”
Instead, this led to a suspension, divided parliament that made it difficult for any prime minister to obtain the necessary support to pass the annual bills and budget.
Macron was appointed Michelle Barnier last September, but within three months, the man who negotiated Britain’s exit from the European Union was outside – the shortest period since the start of the Fifth Republic of France.
Bayro has now suffered from the same fate, less than nine months after he reached his post last December. It will be officially resigned on Tuesday.
Some parties – mainly on the far right and the far left – continue to the bustle of the early presidential elections.
However, Macron has always said that he would not stand before the end of his term in 2027.
Instead, he must now choose between appointing a fifth prime minister in less than two years, which will face the same incurable opposition – or to summon the sudden and risk parliamentary elections to a more hostile national association.
There are few good options for the president with the continued effects of his gambling in June 2024.
The main Peru issue was the debt crisis of France, and what he said was the need to reduce government spending to prevent a catastrophe for future generations.
Why France in the debt crisis?
Simply put, the government of France spent more money than it was born. As a result, it must borrow to cover its budget.
The French government says that public debt amounted to 3345 billion euros, or 114 % of GDPIn early 2025.
This is the third highest general debt in the euro area after Greece and Italy, and equivalent to approximately 50,000 euros for every French citizen.
Last year’s budget deficit was 5.8 % of GDP, and this year is expected to be 5.4 %. Therefore, the public debt will continue to grow as the borrowing covers this deficiency.
France – like many developed countries – faces the demographic headache of the aging of the population – fewer workers who are subject to tax and more people who draw state pension.
Bayro is among these French politicians who want to reduce the deficit by redefining generous social programs – such as state pensions.
In his speech to Parliament on Monday, Bayro talked about a country about “supporting life” and addicted to spending.
Two years ago, France raised the retirement age from 62 to 64 for those born in 1968 or after that, and Bayro warned that the feeling that French workers can stop working during the early 1960s is now old.
However, there is a lot of opposition for more discounts. Bayro’s ancestors collapsed in a vote of confidence in this case last December.
Politicians on the left called for high taxes, instead of budget discounts.
Bayro went – what is happening now?
France is likely to turn for another period of doubt, erosion and speculation.
Macron can act quickly to appoint a new prime minister – it is certain that the country is in the country to do so.
But the practical aspects-and the race-indicate that this may turn into a drawn process.
Macron must find a name that cannot be intercepted enough for some parliamentary opposition, at least that they will not transfer it automatically.
It took the first two session in this novice parliament – Barnieh and Bayro – weeks to find them. The third will not be easier.
Meanwhile, Bayro is supposed to remain a priest of assault.
There is pressure from some circles – especially the National Assembly of Marin Lub – for a new solution to the National Assembly and Parliamentary Elections.
But there are also strong voices that it will be a waste of time, because the new vote is unlikely to change a lot.
Moreover, there are also sounds – from the far left this time – calling for Macron’s resignation. This is unlikely to happen.
Who can replace Payro?
The pressure on Macron will be to name a successor from the left. The last two ministers were from the right and the center, and the left coalition came out of the highest numbers in the 2024 elections.
Olivier FourThe leader of the Socialist Party, will be one of the possibilities. The 57 -year -old has a group of 66 deputies at the National Assembly.
Two other possibilities from the left Former Prime Minister Bernard CasinoffAnd the veteran Former Minister Pierre MoskovichiCurrently, Cour Des Comps, the official office of accounting.
If Macron decides to stick to the position and right Sebastian Lecorno, 39The current defense minister, who is a member of the Renaissance Party in Macron and is said to be close to the president.
Another governor whose name is the current Minister of Labor and Health, Catherine Futrin.
Two other possibilities from within the government Interior Minister Bruno RitayoWhich is now leading the Republicans, and Justice Minister Galled Darmanin.
But with all the eyes in the 2027 presidential elections, do these heavy weights want the kiss of the electoral death that will be the next Prime Minister to be?
