BBC reported on June 26, 2024 that both the UK and France recently faced snap elections with their ruling parties at risk of falling from power, with France's situation appearing more severe. The French President Macron's risky move to dissolve parliament and call for early elections after losing to far-right leader Marine Le Pen sparked concerns about the future of France's political system, potentially leading to violent unrest regardless of the election outcome. The risks identified include financial troubles for the future French government, violent protests, and institutional collapse, with scenarios of either a far-right government or a paralyzed parliament being the most likely outcomes.
