President Emmanuel Macron's party and its allies won a comfortable majority in the French parliament, securing 350 out of 577 seats in yesterday's second-round vote. While the victory wasn't the landslide some polls had predicted, and turnout was a record low for the vote, it does bolster the young president's legislative agenda. The victory for the year-old movement sees much of the French old guard swept from parliament. Nearly a year after the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, negotiations began this morning on that divorce in Brussels with confusion remaining on what the U.K. wants from the breakup. The EU and U.K. teams have a lot of ground to cover, but they have at least agreed on a timetable for talks ahead of today's meeting, with the exit-deal basics due to be complete by December this year, before talks on future trading arrangements can begin.
