In France the first opinion poll since a snap election was called projects a win for the far-right National Rally. However, the party is forecast to fall short of an absolute majority.

Across France, there've been protests against the far right after their win in Sunday's European Parliament elections. Most were peaceful but there were some clashes with police. French President Emmanuel Macron dissolved the lower house of parliament after the European election results, which saw his centrist coalition suffer a resounding defeat.

Meanwhile, the leader of France's conservative "Republicans" party says he is willing to form an alliance with the far-right National Rally. If it happens, it would mark the end of the mainstream conservatives' long refusal to work with the far-right.
