French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou lost a confidence motion in parliament, forcing a third change in government in just over a year and reviving uncertainty over how the country can tackle its mounting debt burden. 

Parties across the political spectrum in France’s lower house joined forces Monday to overwhelmingly issue the rebuke to Bayrou, who called the motion in a failed attempt to rally support for his unpopular budget reforms. Just 194 lawmakers voted in support of the prime minister and 364 voted against.  
 
President Emmanuel Macron will accept Bayrou’s resignation on Tuesday and name a new premier in the coming days, according to a statement from the president’s office. The new government will still have to find a way to pass a budget, an exercise that has now toppled the last two prime ministers.
