MANIFESTATIONS
Several demonstrations against the vaccine pass project took place on Saturday across France, mainly in calm, a few days after Emmanuel Macron’s controversial statements on the unvaccinated, whom he wants to “piss off”.
Paris has seen several demonstrations, the most important of which brought together a few thousand people at the call of the Patriots of the pro-Frexit presidential candidate Florian Philippot, according to an AFP journalist. They paraded, in the rain, from the Place du Palais Royal to Place Vauban behind the Invalides.
In Lyon, a small crowd of demonstrators of all ages and little masked gathered in a good-natured atmosphere on Place Bellecour, in the city center. Among them some “yellow vests”, tricolor flags and a red from the CGT.
In Bordeaux, between 500 and 1,000 people, according to the police, and 9,000 according to the organizers. In the East, 1,250 demonstrators marched in Colmar and 1,900 in Mulhouse, according to the Haut-Rhin prefecture. They were 1,500 in Strasbourg, according to the Bas-Rhin prefecture.
