Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.
The random article for Thursday, 12 March 2026, is Bayrou government.
The Bayrou government (French: gouvernement Bayrou) was the forty-sixth government of France. It was formed in December 2024 after President Emmanuel Macron appointed François Bayrou as Prime Minister on 13 December, replacing caretaker Michel Barnier (who had been removed from office by a motion of no-confidence).
François Bayrou was the fourth prime minister to hold the office in a single year, the most in the history of the Fifth Republic.
The government included members of Emmanuel Macron's coalition, Ensemble, as well as The Republicans; despite its minority status, it survived a vote of no confidence on 16 January 2025 thanks to abstentions from the National Rally and the Socialist Party.
The government was defeated in a confidence vote on 8 September 2025 in the National Assembly, with 364 deputies voting against confidence and 194 deputies voting in favour of confidence.
