YELLOW VESTS PARIS VIDEO STREAM WEEK 51 11/2/2019
The Yellow Vests seeing what's going on in other parts of the world like Chile and Catalonia and what you see sometimes in the midst of the protests are flags from those nations. A core of activists continue to protest and President Emmanuel Macron continues to move forward promising more of the same.
His next "neo-liberal" "reform" will be pensions creating a unified system in France to lower benefits and cut business costs on paying for them.
Macron promises to move forward even if the idea is unpopular.
He does not face the voters until 2022.
The latest polling puts him in the 27 to 29 percent area in a first round election. But right there with him at 27.5 to 29 percent support is National Rally leader Marine Le Pen.
Far behind but with a firm base of the support is the left-wing leader of "France Insubordinate" (LFI)
Jean Luc-Melenchon with 12.5 to 13 percent support.
The "Anchors A Way" video stream is live now with video from Toulouse set for 9 am Eastern US time....
