French election: Shock as poll shows far-right defeat

Exit polls predict that Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally party has failed to win the French parliamentary election.
They had won the first round of voting - and were widely predicted to win the second round.
But they appear to have been beaten into third place by a left-green coalition.
