Opposition deputies have called for an enquiry into French President Emmanuel Macron's past support for online transport giant Uber when he worked for a socialist government. This follows media revelations accusing the former economy minister of making "secret deals" to bend legislative rules.
The 'Uber Files' investigation is based on a leak of tens of thousands of documents to Britain's Guardian newspaper from an anonymous source, and has been coordinated by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists.
