Protests in France: Trade Unions Intensify Pressure on Government
BREAKDOWN – Trade unions call for a nationwide strike on November 5.
Maintain pressure on the government at all costs. After Saturday's demonstrations "against the high cost of living", where 410,000 people took to the streets throughout France, unions and "yellow vests" have already called for new mobilizations. “These demonstrations will be repeated every week,” Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the leader of La France insoumise, warned on Saturday at the head of the Parisian demonstration procession.
The “yellow vests” retained the date of October 31. They are calling for rallies and sit-ins in front of the National Assembly and French town halls, to denounce what they describe as the government's “authoritarian drift”. “There is anger in this country that is not heard,” explained the coordination of the “yellow vests”.
