PROTEST SIGNS AT YELLOW VESTS PROTEST IN PARIS SATURDAY                                                                        11/12/2022

Thursday was another day of workers striking in Paris led by workers in the subway system.  

Workers demanding government action to address inflation with higher salaries for working people.

The "Moderate" government of President Emmanuel Macron found another issue to distract people on the "Left" who might be sympathetic to this protest.

The government deciding to accept a boat of migrants in the Mediterranean Sea after it was refused by Italy.

Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin taking the opportunity of announcing acceptance of the "Ocean Viking" into the port of Toulon to slam the new "far-right" government of Italy.

In addition France suspended a plan to take in 3,500 migrants currently in Italy.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni saying Darmanin's criticism and action was "aggressive, incomprehensible and unjustified".

Meloni speaking of the need for a unified European policy on migrants.

(Perhaps the Macron government did this to arouse and distract Left-Wing opinion in France from the workers protest)

National Rally leader in the National Assembly Marine Le Pen describing the decision to allow the ship with 236 migrants on board a step in the wrong direction.
