There’s scepticism over how well the surprise winners of France's parliamentary election will work together.
The left wing New Popular Front coalition beat out the centrist Ensemble party and far-right National Rally, who had been hopefuls after a successful first round of voting just over a week ago.

She says she'd have very little confidence in them, adding they're made up of such a wide range of left-wing opinions.
