Vincent McAviney: Europe Correspondent on the shaky state of the French government, Emmanuel Macron

French President Emmanuel Macron is due to address his nation this morning following yesterday's ousting of Prime Minister Michel Barnier.

Correspondent Vincent McAviney told Ryan Bridge that Macron's future is increasingly uncertain.

He says Macron doesn't have a Prime Minister or a government and can't hold fresh elections until the middle of next year.

Barnier is staying on as acting PM, including for this weekend's reopening of the Notre-Dame Cathedral.
