Part 6/7:
As the political atmosphere remains tense, the NFP could face severe repercussions if it cracks under internal pressures. Macron, along with his new prime minister, François Bayrou, now enjoys a temporary reprieve thanks to the Socialists' decision, but this stability could quickly dissipate, particularly with significant upcoming legislative votes.
The trajectory of the left also looms large over the impending 2027 presidential election. With President Macron unable to run again, the left faces the risk of re-entering a race once more divided, potentially leading to another loss for left-of-center candidates, should they fail to resolve their internal disputes and forge a cohesive strategy.
