French far-right leader Jordan Bardella said on Sunday he was ready to be Prime Minister if his National Rally (RN) party, who looked set to have won the first round of France's parliamentary elections, finished with an absolute majority after next week's second round.

"I will be a "cohabitation" Prime Minister, respectful of the constitution and of the office of President of the Republic, but uncompromising about the policies we will implement," Bardella said.
