Paris (Reuters) – French President Emmanuel Macron's centrist alliance would lower power bills, soften inheritance tax and link pensions to inflation if it wins a snap election, the prime minister said, seeking to counter the threat from the far right and a left-wing bloc.
Macron's ruling Together alliance is the underdog in the parliamentary vote, which Macron called after suffering a heavy defeat at the hands of the far-right National Rally (RN) in this month's European elections.
