FRANCE YELLOW VESTS WEEK 69: PENSION BILL MOVED BY DECREE THROUGH NATIONAL ASSEMBLY, CORONAVIRUS RISES IN FRANCE
Last Saturday afternoon even as Week 68's protests wrapped up in the streets of France, Premier Edouard Philippe appeared in the National Assembly to invoke Article 49.3 of the constitution.
This allows for legislation to be passed unless a censure motion can pass in opposition to it.
The move to overcome a huge volume of amendments to the "reform" of pensions expected to cut benefits for working people who retire.
Two separate censure motions appeared and were voted on Tuesday as thousands protested in the streets of Paris. One from the "Right" that got 141 votes and one from the "Left" that picked up the support of 91 members of the National Assembly. The government's majority in the assembly prevailed with the opposition split into two separate camps.
The coronavirus on the rise in France with 613 cases and nine deaths recorded as of late Friday with the activation of the "white" plan to allow hospitals to be cleared of non-essential patients and visitors in preparation to handle virus patients.
