When they were blocked near the palace etc. a group went out to the highway to shut it down...police had not expected that
This is a mixed protest.
It started over the gas tax, but now includes a wide variety of groups, from FREXIT supporters to ANTIFA pro-communists.
Many are similar to what we saw in Sweden where the citizens want social programs only for citizens, not diluted to pay for the migrants.
Some want a more democratic and capitalistic system, but they are a very small minority.
This is not “anti-Macron” as the title says....it is anti-everything and pro-anarchy. This is how despots get to power, by rising up on the backs of diverse agendas to lead everyone to stability.
