Political Upheaval In The U.K. And France (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

First came the electoral shocker in Britain. Conservative prime minister Theresa May, rebuked at the polls. British voters turning their backs on the driver of the Brexit, opening their arms to the UK’s Labour Party. Then came France this weekend. Old parties of the right and left scorned. Voting that looks to give 39-year-old newly-elected president Emmanuel Macron a huge majority in the French parliament for his brand new centrist party. This hour On Point: the UK and France turn politics upside-down. -- Tom Ashbrook
