Exit polls are predicting a shocking turnaround after the second round of voting in France's general election.

The New Popular Front, France's Far Left coalition, looks set to take a shock victory after exit polling indicated it would win between 175 and 205 seats.

The country's far-right party, the National Rally, has lost its heavy first-round lead and by the exit polling's most generous estimates is only expected to come third.

Incumbent President Emmanuel Macron's gamble to call the snap election appears to have failed as polls indicate his centrist Ensemble Party will come second.
