- Demonstrations have erupted with protesters worldwide pushing for better pay, hours and conditions
- International Workers' Day celebrates labourers and the working classes with organised rallies each year
French riot police were set on fire today after being targeted by protesters armed with Molotov cocktails and other missiles amid May Day workers' rights parades across the country.
At least 108 police officers were injured in violent clashes with demonstrators who have taken to the streets to continue their protests against President Macron's widely unpopular pension reforms.
Footage showed petrol bombs hit police in Paris, while bike stands were also set on fire. One officer suffered burns to their face and body and was taken to hospital, state broadcaster France Televisions reported. . . .
They won't do much as blink when their freedoms are robbed, but they'll chimp out for their gibs.
This is how socialism maintains its parasitic hold on the West.
French protestor KD sucks.
Wait, now which protestors are we talking about? French Youth, French Nationals, Parisians, or frogs?
Edit: it's May Day. They are French Communists.
Macron brought this on himself. He's like baby Turdeau. He sleeps with a grandma and isn't fit to lead. Le Pen should be in charge if the French knew what was best for them.
I like to see the rebellion but I don't support communism. Those red shirts should be black and I would prefer seeing pictures of Hitler and SS men with swastikas on banners that are red, but for a different premise of course.
Le Pen is mightier than Le Sword.
Meanwhile in London, Communists took to the streets to rally in support of worker and trade union rights.
And the FBI / CIA are there to subvert the protests, just like what happened with the Yellow Vests.
Red flags waved in the streets of London, under Union Flags hung out between buildings, as a procession moved through the capital. Demonstrators also carried banners featuring images of Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Vladimir Lenin, Josef Stalin and Mao Zedong.
Yup. It's a (((color revolution))).
1) As long as macron himself doesn't get torched he doesn't care, that's a fact "come get me" he said to the yellow vests 2) French essentially riot for a broken nail while they have AIDS+cancer+ebola, but the broken nail is just too much
Well at least they're doing something, still better than apathy and at the same time they do it at the wrong place/wrong targets for "some" reason...
Hence why I don't have much faith in those people
Besides, most of those rioting voted for macron against lepen, and the reform they're are protesting against now, was in his program... So there's that...

I agree, unless it was a stolen election. I'm not sure if they are paper ballots counted same day or what.
Election tampering can't be ruled out, at the same time electronic voting machines aren't the norm, far from it, while there are some last time I checked. It's mostly the way the fifth republic has been reorganized over the years that makes it difficult for third parties to break through, but most importantly, the "beaver vote" (vote "barrage" against fascism™) is still very strong. Lots of beavers in france.
Yes, stolen elections and co-opted protest movements.
