Macron UNDER PRESSURE: France RIOTS as police fire teargas at Yellow Vest protesters


EMMANUEL Macron is under pressure again after thousands of furious masked Yellow Vest protestors descended on to the streets of Paris on May Day to protest against the French President’s policies.

French police fired tear gas to push back masked demonstrators in central Paris on Wednesday. Witnesses said riot police used tear gas to disperse a group of hooded and masked protesters that had converged at the front of the traditional May Day union march. Furious protesters wearing hoods or yellow vests responded by throwing projectiles at the police.
(...)
Labour unions and so-called Yellow Vest protesters were on the streets across France just days after Emmanuel Macron outlined policy proposals including tax cuts worth around €5 billion.

More than 7,400 police and gendarmes have been deployed across Paris with orders from the centrist president to take an “extremely firm stance” if faced with any violence.
(...)
Many in the grassroots movement, which lacks a leadership structure, have said Mr Macron’s proposals do not go far enough and most of what he announced lacks details.

The Macron government has been forced to make significant and costly concessions in a bid to quell the chaotic protests.

The EU’s damning silence on the gilet jaunes protests


Patrick West
5 February 2019

(...) Since the gilets jaunes first emerged in November, more than a dozen people have been grievously injured in weekly protests – losing their eyes, or having their hands and feet mutilated. According to the government’s own figures, at least 1,700 people have been injured in the months of conflict.

‘They shoot at the population with a weapon of war,’ said Jérôme Rodrigues, a prominent figure in the movement, who suffered a serious and permanent eye injury in Paris last month. ‘Is that what France is like today? We just want to fill the fridge and we end up losing an eye.’ YouTube and Twitter abound with videos of police brutality, with one much-viewed piece of footage which appears to show French police smashing a protestor’s head on the pavement.

Aïnoha Pascual, a Paris lawyer who has represented several of the injured by rubber bullets, including one who has had part of his hand ripped off, and another left partially deaf and with facial injuries, told the Guardian that she has never seen so many injuries during protests. ‘These weapons are a very real problem. In the 1980s, if one person was hit in the eye at a demonstration there would be a huge reaction, yet now there is no reaction from government.’
(...)
Elsewhere, France 3 reported on Friday that an investigation has been launched in Toulouse after officers were caught on tape saying they wanted to ‘shoot’ violent gilets jaunes protesters. In the footage, recorded at a police command room during a rally in the city on January 12, one officer is heard saying: ‘There’s one on the ground there.’ Another comments: ‘What a bunch of bastards!’
(...)
The EU has failed to denounce Spanish state brutality because the Catalan independence movement could destabilise or even tear apart the Spanish state. This could have knock-on effects in Europe, giving succour to Flemish and Scottish separatist movements, and destabilising the EU itself.

The EU has similarly failed to speak out against the French state because the gilet jaunes not only imperil the stability of the pro-EU French government, but because most of their numbers are openly hostile to the EU. They are often pictured bearing placards calling for ‘Frexit’. They are symbolic of a Europe-wide revolt against a perceived remote and privileged elite, which they feel the EU embodies.

The gilets jaunes represent the pan-European, left-behind ‘somewhere’ people, the deplorables who resent what they see as a neoliberal, pro-immigration, big business-friendly ruling class – also personified by the EU. The EU’s silence over the maltreatment of people who live inside its borders in France will only cement this perception.

Macron laughs off widespread rumours of sexual affair with French radio boss


Presidential candiate Emmanuel Macron shocked supporters on Monday night when he publicly dismissed longstanding and widespread rumours he was having an affair with the president of France Radio Mathieu Gallet.

The rumours had been swirling around Macron for a long time but the presidential candidate shocked his supporters by meeting them head on.

On Monday night he made a surprise appearance at a meeting of supporters in Paris, during which he gave an hour long speech.

And for the first time Macron spoke of the rumours that have long since been spread on social media and talked about among journalists that he and France Radio chief Mathieu Gallet have been having an affair.

"I am who I am, I have never had anything to hide," he said.

"I hear people saying that I have a secret life or something. It's not nice for Brigitte (his wife) and because I share all my days and nights with her, she asks me how do I manage it," Macron said.

French police watchdog to investigate 'truncheon rape' video


French investigators are looking at several videos that appear to show police violence during May Day demonstrations in Paris, including one showing an officer push his truncheon inside the trousers of an arrested man.

The man attacked with a telescopic truncheon had been plucked from a crowd of protesters, many of whom were chanting "everyone hates the police".

Paris police chiefs have asked the IGPN, the body that investigates police abuses, to investigate the incident, which happened when the arrested man was pinned down by other officers.

They are also looking at two other incidents caught on video. One shows a helmeted officer hitting a protester while the second shows another officer hurling a paving stone at protesters.

On Friday, French Interior Minister Christophe Castaner told journalists: "If someone is at fault, there will be a sanction, legal and administrative sanctions."

Low turnout for 'festive blockade' of Paris Airport


Only 30 'yellow vest' protesters turned up at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport for the group's planned 'festive blockade' on Saturday, in what by mid-afternoon was looking like a subdued 'Act 25' for the movement.

The protesters carried signs saying 'Mum, I'm going to miss my plane', and others bearing slogans protesting proposals to privatise the airport's owner ADP. But a heavy police presence ensured they caused little real disruption to passengers.
(...)
France's Interior Ministry estimated that just 23,600 demonstrators took to the streets on the weekend of April 27th, a fraction of the 300,000 who took part in the first protests on November 17th.

By the way, folks, here's yet another prominent jewish politician in France – Vincent Peillon, a former education minister:

Quote:
Vincent Benoît Camille Peillon (French pronunciation: [vɛ̃.sɑ̃ pɛ.jɔ̃] ; born 7 July 1960 in Suresnes) was Minister for Education in the French Government. He is a longstanding French politician and since 2004 has been a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for North West France (allied with the Socialist Party and the Party of European Socialists).

Vincent Peillon, Leftist With Jewish Roots, Will Run for French President


Cnaan Liphshiz
December 13, 2016

(JTA) — Vincent Peillon, a former education minister of France, announced his candidacy to lead France’s Socialist Party, where he is already receiving key endorsements from the party’s left wing.

Peillon, a lawmaker in the European Parliament whose mother is Jewish, announced his candidacy Sunday to succeed President Francois Hollande and run as their party’s presidential candidate in the election in April. Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo pledged her support for Peillon Monday, according to the French daily Le Figaro.
(...)
Peillon, who rarely talks about his Jewish roots publicly, signed a petition by the left-wing Jcall group, which is the European counterpart of J Street. In 2009 he celebrated the bar mitzvah of his son Elie at a Paris synagogue, according to Jacques Benillouche, a columnist for Slater and Tribune Juive. His other son is named Isaac. Peillon is married to Nathalie Bensahel, a journalist who has written about France’s anti-Semitism problem.

Paris newspaperman sparks homophobia row after refusing to sell magazine with men kissing


6 May 2019

(...) One kiosquier, as they are known in French, is accused of refusing to sell customers a magazine because a picture of two male water poloists kissing passionately in a swimming pool.

Mediakiosk, the company that manages all kiosks in Paris, has shut down the one in question on Place de la République, suspended its manager, and launched an enquiry into whether or not he is guilty of homophobia.

(...)
The customer, named as Grégory Tilhac, said he asked the kiosquier for a copy, the man said he had none, but then admitted that he had not taken them out of the cardboard box they had arrived in.
“Are you homophobic?” Tilhac asked, according to an account he later published on Facebook.

“Yes,” came the alleged reply.

“Unabashed homophobia in all its horror,” wrote the customer, whose account was widely relayed on Twitter and soon came to the attention of the mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo.

She tweeted that it was “unacceptable” and vowed to do all she could to battle “homophobic acts and words”.

Mediakiosk, which runs the kiosk, told France Info radio that it would conduct an inquiry into what happened and would question the kiosquier on Tuesday, but said that the kiosquier in question had rejected the allegations.

Deputy Paris mayor Olivia Polski said he had been suspended.

France's 'yellow vests' protest in dwindling numbers, some clashes

Guillaume Frouin

NANTES, France (Reuters) - French police fired tear gas in skirmishes with masked demonstrators in Lyon and Nantes on Saturday, the 26th straight weekend of “yellow vest” protests against President Emmanuel Macron and his economic reform agenda.
(…)
Six months after the grassroot rebellion erupted over the high cost of living and Macron’s perceived indifference toward the plight of working class France, the movement is losing momentum.

Saturday’s apparently low turnout nationwide will be a relief to Macron, little more than two weeks out from European elections. The far-right, polling neck-and-neck with Macron’s party, is billing the vote as a referendum on his first two years in office.

The prolonged unrest has forced the president into costly policy concessions and put the brakes on his reform timetable, including an overhaul of the pension system this year.
(…)
With his authority challenged by the “yellow vests”, Macron launched his fight back last month, promising after weeks of national debate to cut taxes and apologizing for his sometimes sharp tongue.

Even so, in Nantes on Saturday, protesters said Macron’s proposals did not go far enough and lacked detail.

“The ‘grand debate’ was a smoke screen. Today they’re smoking us out with tear gas,” said one 43-year-old protester who identified himself as Mickael. “But we won’t cave in. Yes we’re fewer than at the start, but when the others come back, we’ll still be here and we’ll still be angry.”

Saturday’s protest in Paris, which has seen some of the worst street violence in decades during the “yellow vest” uprising, was calm. In driving rain, protesters marched under umbrellas, waving placards reading “Macron, clear off”.

The leaders of French people who are sick and tired of globalist jew-lackey/Rothschild banker Emmanuel Macron

Quote:
Origin of protests

Éric Drouet and a businesswoman named Priscillia Ludosky from the Seine-et-Marne department started a petition on the change.org website in May 2018 that had reached 300,000 signatures by mid-October and close to a million a month later.
Quote:
Priscillia Ludosky (born 4 November 1985) is one of the founders of the yellow vest movement. On 29 May 2018, she published an online petition about the need for "lower taxes on essential goods, the implementation of the citizens' initiative referendum, lower pensions and salaries of senior officials and elected officials". In September 2018, she sought more attention for the petition, eventually attracting national attention from Le Parisien.

Éric Drouet reached out to Ludosky in October 2018. The two joined their different causes and called for their first protest on 17 November 2018. The pair, along with other activists, would meet with a number of government officials to express their concerns.

When VNN members write about people, organizations, movements or events that are good for whites and bad for anti-white, globalist jews, you show up to badmouth them. Gee, one could almost suspect that you have a nefarious agenda on this forum...

Anyway, the yellow vest movement doesn't have any official leaders, it doesn't have a traditional leadership structure, so it can't be controlled by a handful of people. (Any mainstream newspaper article about the yellow vests will tell you this.)

Most of the protesters are white French citizens who are tired of being bled dry by the Rothschild banker Macron and his jewish masters:

Quote:
Why are France's yellow vest protests so white?


(...) Despite suffering from high living costs and difficult access to benefits, minorities have been reluctant to join the yellow vest movement, with few seen in demonstrations.

Their absence noticed by newspapers and TV stations across France.
(...)
Yet a study by sociologist Herve Le Bras suggested that yellow vest protesters are overwhelmingly from rural areas, where there are few minority groups.

"It's a white movement," said Rafik Chekkat, a law expert and editor of the website Etat d'Exception.

"The question of minorities and their specific concerns are not central to yellow vests."
(...)
In one instance, white yellow vest protesters forced a black woman out of her car and insulted her in front of her children, telling her to "go back to [her] country."

"It's white France that's suffering," said Jean-Yves Le Gallou, a self-proclaimed yellow vest member and far-right politician.
(...)
Minorities have been reluctant to join a movement that might very well turn against them, said Sopo.

...and many of them are openly calling out the jews:

Antisemitism among Yellow Vest protesters demoralizes France’s Jews

Manifestations of anti-Semitism in the context of ‘yellow jacket’ protest in France


(...) Results show that French Jews—the largest Jewish community in Europe with a total around 500,000—exhibit the highest level of concern over anti-Semitism (95 percent).

While the survey was conducted in May and June, an additional anti-Semitic element has come up over the last weeks as a result of the so-called “yellow jacket” social-protest movement against taxes imposed by the French government. The movement has led to extremely violent clashes between protesters and police, especially in the center of Paris.
(...)
Social media networks have also been plagued with anti-Semitic sentiment in the last weeks. An anonymous source wearing a mask claimed, “it was the rich Jews who brought Macron to power so that he would be their puppet, and they are the ones who are pulling the strings. They caused him to nullify taxes on the assets of rich people, and they are responsible for the entire economic situation.”

France's 'Yellow Vest' protests take an anti-Semitic turn


Banner hung on main road calls Macron 'whore of the Jews'; Paris synagogues shuttered for first time as spike in emigration inquiries is reported

French Jews have become a focal point for the "Yellow Vest" protests across France, with an increase in anti-Semitism by demonstrators.

A video circulated on the social networks of French musician Stephen Ballet, who lives in Istanbul, inciting protesters to "understand that the real enemy is the Jews." Ballet, an esteemed musician with a racist reputation, last week uploaded a YouTube video which garnered 36,000 views before it was blocked. In the video, Ballet claims that lighting Hanukkah candles in front of the Eiffel Tower "while the French are dying of hunger" is a deliberate provocation by Jews against the French people.

Former French president Sarkozy set for trial over 2012 campaign


PARIS (Reuters) - France’s Constitutional Council cleared the way on Friday for former president Nicolas Sarkozy to be tried over alleged illegal financing of his failed re-election campaign in 2012.

Sarkozy had appealed to the council invoking the “double-jeopardy” principle because he had already been convicted in 2013 and ordered to pay more than 360,000 euros for breaching campaign-finance rules.

But in its decision on Friday, the council ruled that the penalty Sarkozy was ordered to pay in 2013 was for different violations and different amounts than the fraud he and 13 co-defendants are now being investigated for.

The case now hinges on the country’s top appeal court, the Cour de Cassation, where Sarkozy, 64, has lodged a separate appeal. If that too is rejected, the case will return to prosecutors who will decide whether he should be tried.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-f...-idUSKCN1SN1CJ

Actually, the jew Sarkozy should be tried – and convicted – for war crimes, but of course that will never happen since we live in a jewed society.

Cannes filmmaker urges Macron to watch tale of French police violence


Sarah White, Johnny Cotton

CANNES, France (Reuters) - Filmmaker Ladj Ly urged French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday to watch his thriller about a chaotic police patrol, in the running for the top award at Cannes, as an insight into France’s “yellow vest” street protests.

Set in a Paris suburb, “Les Miserables” tells the story of three policemen who scramble to cover their tracks and keep the peace after their arrest of a local teen spirals out of control and is recorded by a passing drone.

Ly’s pulsating debut, selected for the main Palme D’Or competition, comes six months into a wave of sometimes violent French street demonstrations against high living costs and the perceived indifference of the ruling class.

The protests have drawn attention to police tactics including their use of flash-ball riot control guns.

“Today, with the ‘yellow vests’, you feel like people are just discovering all this police violence,” Ly told a news conference after the movie’s premiere on Wednesday.

Aide to French far-right party leader pictured wearing Orthodox Jew costume


May 17, 2019 8:41 am

(JTA) — An assistant to the general-secretary of France’s foremost far-right party was photographed grimacing while dressed as an Orthodox Jew and extending claw-like fingers at the camera.

Labeled by the French media as an “anti-Semitic caricature,” the image from 2013 of Guillaume Pradoura, which surfaced on social networks this week, exposed the National Assembly – formerly National Front – to fresh criticism of anti-Semitism in its ranks.

Pradoura is the assistant of Nicolas Bay, ranked No. 7 by the National Assembly on its list for this month’s European Parliament elections.

Bay dismissed criticism over the picture, saying “it was a disguise, a mere joke made in bad taste made privately,” Kobini, a news site, reported Thursday.

Jean-Marie Le Pen, the party’s founder and father of its current leader, Marine Le Pen, has multiple convictions for denying the Holocaust and inciting racial hatred against Jews. His daughter has kicked him out the party and vowed to stop expressions of anti-Semitism in its ranks.

Far-right wins French vote in EU election, but Macron limits damage


PARIS (Reuters) - Marine Le Pen’s far-right Rassemblement National rode a wave of nationalist sentiment to win the most votes in France’s election to the European Parliament on Sunday, but the margin of victory over President Emmanuel Macron’s party was narrow.

An Elabe exit poll showed Rassemblement National, formerly known as the National Front, securing 23.6% of the vote, a little over one percentage point ahead of Macron’s La Republique En Marche list on 22.4%.

While the result is a defeat for Macron - who has put Europe at the heart of his presidency and personally invested time in the campaign - it was a far better performance than previous incumbents.

Former president Francois Hollande’s party won just 14% of the vote in the last European election in 2014, coming third.

Belgian far-right party triples voter share, becomes 2nd largest


May 26, 2019 3:44 pm

(JTA) — Belgium’s far-right Flemish Interest party has more than tripled its electorate, emerging as the country’s second largest in Sunday’s federal elections.

The party, whose founders included collaborators with Nazi Germany and whose lawmakers have a rich history of anti-Semitism, won about 15 percent of the national vote – its best result ever. It had fewer than four percent in the 2014 elections.

Separately, in neighboring France the far-right party of Marine Le Pen, National Rally, has retained its position as the largest French party in the European Parliament after winning 23.2 percent of the vote in those elections, which also took place on Sunday.

The Flemish Interest party in 2014 declared its support for a ban on slaughter of animals without stunning, which means a de facto ban on the production of halal meat for Muslims and kosher meat for Jews. This year, two of Belgium’s three states banned slaughter without stunning.

The Flemish Interest party, and its predecessor, the Flemish Bloc, have been kept out of power-sharing coalitions by other parties in reaction to the party’s history with racism.
