00:00French Prime Minister François Bayrou
00:03is fighting for his political survival
00:06but after a marathon day of consultations
00:08here in Paris
00:09his chances are looking increasingly slim
00:12The Prime Minister met with party leaders
00:14across the political spectrum
00:17the goal to shore up
00:18as much support as possible
00:20before Monday's crucial confidence vote
00:23in Parliament
00:24but the meetings are doing little
00:26to change the big picture
00:28most opposition groups have already said
00:30that they will vote against his government
00:33in order to topple it
00:35and even among his own allies
00:37cracks are starting to show
00:39with multiple Conservative MPs
00:41that are demanding drastic changes
00:44to the Prime Minister's highly unpopular
00:462026 budget plan
00:49The strongest words this Tuesday
00:51came however from the far right
00:53national rally leader Jordan Bardella
00:55who declared that the miracle did not happen
00:58and that this meeting won't change
01:00the national rally's position
01:02He also demanded for snap elections
01:05to be held as soon as possible
01:07The consultations will continue
01:09throughout this week
01:10but it's an uphill battle
01:12for François Bayrou
01:13unless there's a traumatic turnaround
01:15the Prime Minister looks like
01:18he is set to lose the vote on Monday
01:21a defeat that would topple his government
01:24but also plunge France
01:26into yet another phase
01:28of political uncertainty
01:29It's like Let's go
01:33take over us
01:35to this Twitter
01:35and to see each other
01:37that we're being on the left
01:38of tomorrow
