French PM set to survive no-confidence vote in parliament

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou faces his first vote of no confidence in parliament Thursday, with the motion unlikely to pass. The speech sparked condemnation from most of the opposition in parliament where Bayrou is well short of an absolute majority, making his government highly vulnerable to a no-confidence vote that, if successful, would force it to resign.
