France's parliament is poised to oust Prime Minister François Bayrou on Monday, further exacerbating the country's year-long political deadlock. Bayrou's confidence vote, aimed at addressing France's debt crisis through austerity measures, is expected to fail. President Macron's 2024 snap election backfired, strengthening extremist parties. The political stalemate fuels public discontent, with rising support for the far-right and potential for widespread protests. The future remains uncertain, with possibilities including another snap election or attempts to form a new minority government.
