How long will new French PM last and what to expect in France this Christmas?
Description
France has a new Prime Minister, just in time for the New Year, but how long will he last for in 2025? France does have a PM but will it get a new government in time for Christmas? A lot has happened in French politics since last week and there’s a lot more that will happen before the end of the year so we’ll break it all down for you.
Away from politics we’ll find out about some foreign residents who’ve been caught with fake French language test certificates. And we’ll run through what to expect in France this Christmas from strikes to topless firefighters.
And we’ll hear how glitches on the French immigration admin website ANEF have been causing a “crisis” for international residents in the country.
It’s another jam-packed episode of Talking France coming up.
And we're appealing to all our listeners this Christmas who haven’t become members.
