French government considers forcing through budget bill after tax on rich vote
Left-wing and centrist MPs banded together on Tuesday and voted to make a temporary tax on the rich a permanent levy to help reduce France's crippling public deficit, dealing a major blow to the minority right-wing government. In response, the government is considering using a controversial measure to adopt its entire 2025 budget without a national assembly vote.
