The Manif for all makes its last preparations. On Sunday, she will march in Paris to protest against the revision of bioethical laws, and more particularly against the opening of the PMA to all women. At his side will walk about twenty other associations, gathered in the collective "Marchons children".
"Remember the good memory of the Senate"
The departure will take place at 1 pm Place Edmond Rostand, in the sixth arrondissement. This choice owes nothing to chance. "It is to remember the good memory of the Senate, because the text will arrive in a few days," says Europe 1 Albéric Dumont, the Manif for All. Despite the strong opposition of the right, the National Assembly had voted in first reading, on September 27, the opening of the PMA to all women. In mid-October, it will be the turn of senators to look into this text. "In politics, nothing is ever played," says Albéric Dumont.
200,000 expected protesters
Via the street of Vaugirard, the boulevard Raspail then Montparnasse, the procession will join the place of June 18, 1940, where will be held a rally. This route was chosen because it is "driveable", understand accessible to strollers and wheelchairs. Throughout the course, the Manif for all will move to the rhythm of thematic songs: Papaoutai , signed Stromae or Talk to my father , Celine Dion.
The police headquarters expects 200,000 participants in Paris, an estimate "honest", according to Albéric Rostand. The Manif for all has so far identified 115 buses from all over France. Two TGVs were also chartered especially for the occasion, one from Marseille, the other from Montpellier. Four hundred grouped departures must also take place from Bordeaux.
