  On 5 September 2024, Michel Barnier was appointed as prime minister by Macron, heading a Parliament divided nearly evenly between the leftist New Popular Front, which holds the plurality of seats, Macron's centrist to centre-right Ensemble, and the far-right National Rally.
  
  While the NFP has announced it would move a motion of no confidence against any government not led by them, the National Rally announces that it will wait for the general policy statement of the new government before deciding whether to support any motions of no confidence or censure.
