Left and far-right parties unite to topple the government after the PM pushed through a budget without parliamentary support.

Prime Minister Michel Barnier is expected to resign after the National Assembly passed a vote of no-confidence on Wednesday, effectively collapsing the current government.

Michael Barnier has become the shortest-serving French prime minister in modern history as opposition parties have ousted his government in a historic no-confidence vote – which hands president Emmanuel Macron a fresh political crisis.
