The national debate launched by Macron? "Smokiness". As January 6, the date of its first edition, the call for a "women's march" has spread throughout France. In Bordeaux 120 people, according to the prefecture, women and men, took the start of the parade. "On Sunday, there are fewer CRS to pick us up," joked Genevieve Deyres, said "Zezette". "Unfortunately, we do not talk about our movement (editor's note, the" march of women ") because we are pacifist," said this retired woman of 63 years. "We're only talking about the breakers, it's a pity that we have to be broken so we can be heard". For her, the national debate launched by Emmanuel Macron to get out of the crisis, "it's smoking, we will not participate."
"Forte, educated, mother, Marianne, angry," chanted the protesters, Sunday. AFP photo.
A movement that continues to mobilize. In Toulouse, about 130 people, including some men, marched in the calm Sunday morning, the day after a record procession that gathered some 10,000 people. This affluence "means that people are unhappy because despised, hurrying like lemons," said Michelle, a retired shopkeeper who has participated in all protests since the end of November. "Too many taxes, too much contempt from our rulers," she said, yellow vest on the back.
