Historic Vote Removes PM Barnier, Macron’s Authority Weakened as Left & Right Unite Against Him
On December 4, 2024, French PM Michel Barnier was ousted in a no-confidence vote by 331 votes to 246.
This marked the first time since 1962 that a French government collapsed due to such a motion.
The vote followed Barnier's controversial budget, which sparked opposition from both the left-wing NPF and right-wing RN, creating a political crisis for President Macron as he faces uncertainty in appointing a new prime minister.

France has rejected NATO’s new U.S.-led initiative to fund American weapons for Ukraine, dealing a blow to Trump’s arms plan. President Macron insists Europe must reduce dependency and prioritize its own defense industry. French officials cite budget constraints and strategic autonomy as key reasons. The move deepens a rift within NATO, with the Czech Republic and Hungary also opting out. Germany, however, backs the plan, warning that only U.S. supplies can meet Ukraine’s urgent battlefield needs against Russia’s continued offensive.

Donald Trump will be hosted by the King and Queen at Windsor Castle during his unprecedented second state visit to the UK from September 17 to 19, Buckingham Palace said.
