PARIS, Dec 9 (Reuters) - France's social security budget faced a knife-edge vote on Tuesday that could trigger a fresh political crisis and leave a 30-billion-euro ($35 billion) hole in funding for healthcare, pensions and welfare.
Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu has no majority in parliament and his scramble to win Socialist support - including suspending President Emmanuel Macron's pension reform - has alienated centrist and conservative allies, leaving the bill's fate uncertain.
