Dozens of newly elected far-right MPs arrived for the first time on Wednesday at the National Assembly in Paris since the results of the French legislative elections on 7 July.

The left-wing alliance holds the largest number of seats in the National Assembly, with 193 of 577, but is well short of the...

When the exit poll revealed a surprise victory for France’s left-wing alliance in Sunday’s snap legislative poll, there were sighs of relief in many corners of Europe. Centrists had feared that the far-right’s potential emergence into government in France - the European Union’s second most powerful economy - would sow economic and political instability and undermine the bloc’s stalwart support to Ukraine. But with a hung parliament and no clear route to a governing coalition, the political gridlock in Paris still casts uncertainty over France’s ability to wield its influence in Brussels. Final...

Heralded from a Viennese hotel last weekend with the clear intention of becoming the largest right-wing group in the European Parliament, the alliance began drawing parties from the orbit of the Identity and Democracy (ID) group, such as founder party the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ) and later last ...

"The National Rally today achieved the most important breakthrough in its entire history," RN leader Jordan Bardella said in a five-minute speech delivered a half hour after the exit poll showing his party was projected to come third behind the left-wing and centrist coalitions was released.

Prominent members of the Greens, part of the ruling coalition in the neighbouring country, were among the first to react on social media platforms.
