Macron is taking the high ground and playing the victim card but it looks like a messy situation he caused with his policies.
President Emmanuel Macron says his fuel policies are needed to combat global warming.

Glad he said this...now people far and wide will know just how far Leftists are willing to go for their religion of Climate Catastrophism.
It’s a result of socialism.
Thank God they are not doing this to their Muslim immigrants.
Macron has a 25% approval rating.
Chemical Warfare?
So fascist.
What? No eggs?
Elections have consequences.
I don’t understand these French people protesting like this. They seem to think the country belongs to the people and that they should have a say in fuel policies. Don’t these idiots know the policies are to help save the world?
(Just exercising the left side of my brain)
a Sunspot denier....
More power to them!
Total BS. From a sunspot denier...
The French elected their government and Macron. They must want hire fuel prices.
Vive La France!
They need to go straight to all the universities and to the fake news stations and start there...
This is getting interesting over there. I understand that it has spread to Brussels also.
It appears to myself that some radical infiltrators have got into the fray now in France.
The problem here is that their assembly doesnt have the power to remove the president of the country. They can remove the Prime Minister. There is where Macron will lay the blame, being the little coward he is.
As I watched some of the videos, and noticed that in some confrontations that the police have been standing aside and letting the protesters through. Might be that there are some in the police that are starting to side with the protesters?
If so, then it will get ugly real fast.
The last time anarchy reigned in France a dictator took over. That resulted in a good many of the male population being killed in his wars.
I just saw a phone vid of a guy sitting on a balcony pointing what looked high powered rifle with a scope on it.
He was in silhouette but wasn't wearing riot gear or helmet.
Who knows who it was, but the set up is reminiscent of the Kiev Maidan in 2014.
Lots of calls for Macron to step down...
1. Climate is primarily determined by location.
2. Over time, climate will change. There are multiple factors for this. It's a long term thing and there is we may delay it, but we can't stop it.
3. Whether we are getting more output from the Sun, or less, no amount of money in the world can change that.
4. All 'policies' on 'climate change' are just attempts to steal money.
5. These world leaders have the power and money to hire the best scientific minds. They know that lower temperatures will be a problem. That's why they want your money. They are preparing for the future. Food storage, underground housing, armed protection, medical facilities, food production,etc.
The next worldwide revolution is three missed meals away.
“Paris Is Burning”
France, all of Europe for that matter, has always been insanely expensive. So, there has to be more to it than this.
And Macron was lecturing Trump, poetic justice.
