The French Prime Minister has no defined length for his stay in office. The President is elected for five years and picks the Prime Minister within the parliamentary majority. The Prime Minister has to answer to parliament which can ask for him to be removed. In French politics, it is common for the Prime Minister to protect the popularity of the president by taking responsibility of unpopular policies, and afterwards offer his resignation to the President.
