The second round of the French National Assembly took place yesterday. In a surprise twist, the left-wing New Popular Front (NFP) won 182 of the 577 seats in the National Assembly, thus preventing the far-right front National (RN) from the victory many had expected upfront. RN secured 143 seats – a doubling from the current situation, while Macron’s Ensemble group is poised for182seats, and will be the second biggest group despite losing around a third of current seats(estimates from Le Monde).
