France is grappling with further political turmoil after Lecornu, the country’s latest prime minister, stepped down after less than a month in the post. The move came the day after Lecornu revealed his new cabinet. Some online are claiming that the ministers appointed in his short-lived government will receive three months’ salary, after being in post for a matter of hours.
