  • Resumen

  • Last night the final exit polls of the French election were revealed to a collective stunned gasp.

    The far-right RN party of Marine Le Pen - and Jordan Bardella - is in third place.

    Macron's centrist grouping is in second place - but the dominant bloc emerging is a collective of radical left parties - with the controversial figurehead of Jean-Luc Melenchon at its helm. Macron's PM has stayed on -for now - as caretaker.

    But there is a collective political fog over the shape of France’s next parliament. Has Macron's gamble paid off? Macron will argue he kept fascism at bay - but for how long?

    Later, what will Labour's planning changes mean for young people trying to buy houses? Can it work?

    And how does the Speaker of the house learn 334 brand new MP's names... by next week?
