Pakistan`s Supreme Court on Friday (12 July) granted jailed former prime minister Imran Khan`s party around 20 seats in parliament reserved for women and minorities, months after national elections marred by allegations of pre-poll rigging. In February polls, candidates loyal to Imran Khan won the largest share of seats - despite being forced by an election commission ruling to contest as independents. They were kept from power however by an alliance of military-backed parties. "Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf was and is a political party which secured and won general seats in the national and provincial assemblies in the general elections of 2024," said the majority decision read by Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah. "It is declared that lack or denial of an election symbol doesn`t in any manner affect the constitutional or legal rights of a political party to participate in an election."

France`s political parties scrambled on Friday (12 July) to break a parliamentary deadlock brought on by an inconclusive snap election, as the outgoing prime minister vowed to prevent any government with far-right or hard-left members. A runoff on Sunday (7 July) left the National Assembly without any overall majority, but a broad alliance of Socialists, Communists, Greens and the hard-left France Unbowed (LFI) won the most seats, with 193 in the 577-strong lower chamber. Voters from different camps joined forces in the second round to shut the far-right National Rally (RN) out of power in a "republican front", allowing President Emmanuel Macron`s followers to claim second place with 164 seats and leaving the far right in third at 143. With each of the three blocs controlling roughly one-third of the chamber, political leaders are admitting it may be a long slog to find a government able to survive a no-confidence vote.
