France's Socialist Party sealed a deal on Friday to join the French left's first broad coalition pact in 20 years, in a bid to deprive newly re-elected President Emmanuel Macron of a majority in June's parliamentary elections. The pact, which the Greens and Communists already approved earlier this week, sees La France Insoumise (LFI) in the driving seat for the first time, in a deal that is shaking up French politics. FRANCE 24's French Politics Editor Marc Perelman gives his analysis.
