Gérard Larcher has been re-elected president of the French Senate in the first round of voting, winning 203 of the 302 votes cast. He was greeted with a long ovation when the results were announced. Commentators note the veteran centre-right figure, nicknamed "Gégé", comfortably saw off his left-wing rivals to keep the upper chamber's top job.

Why now: The French Senate has just held its presidential election, and Larcher's first-round win over the left is the main political news of the day.
