FRANCOIS BAYROU: CENTRIST HAS TO HAUL FRANCE OUT OF POLITICAL CRISIS

President Emmanuel Macron yesterday named centrist leader Francois Bayrou as prime minister, handing him the daunting task of hauling France out of months of political crisis.

Bayrou, the 73-year-old head of the MoDem group which is allied to Macron's party, was appointed nine days after Michel Barnier's government was ousted by parliament in a historic no-confidence vote following a standoff over an austerity budget.

"The president of the republic has appointed Mr Francois Bayrou as prime minister and tasked him with forming a government," the French presidency said.

Bayrou is the sixth prime minister of Macron's mandate after last week's toppling of Barnier, who became France's shortest-serving prime minister and lasted only three months.

He is also Macron's fourth prime minister of this year.
