Posted on Leave a comment

Violent clashes between the police and yellow vests since the start of the movement have caused many injuries including the loss of eyes and hands and led to claims of police violence. Here are the latest statistics.

Less than three months since it kicked off, the Yellow Vests movement has turned into one of the longest and most violent social protests in modern France.

Here’s a look at the numbers.

Yet another Yellow Vest Organiser Jailed For Simply Attempting to Organise Protest in France!

Posted on Leave a comment

A 28-year-old Frenchman has been sentenced to six months in jail after he published a Facebook post attempting to organize a ‘Yellow Vest’ blockade of a local petrol refinery, according to local reports.

Hedi Martin was arrested in Port-La Nouvelle, southern France on January 3, shortly after publishing the post on Facebook, la Dépêche reports. In his post, Martin called for a ‘Yellow Vest’ blockade of the petrol refinery in the coastal town, urging people to “stand up to the CRS [riot police],” according to WSWS.

Macron The Dictator Reinforces His Hitler Comparison By Arresting Yellow Vest Leader And Insulting Protesters!

Posted on Leave a comment

Shouts of “dictatorship” were heard as one of the leaders of France’s anti-government Yellow Vest movement was arrested in Paris late on Wednesday, after authorities charged him with organizing and leading an unauthorized protest.

Eric Drouet was detained by police as some of the movement’s supporters gathered in the capital’s Place de la Concorde, near the iconic Arc de Triomphe monument. People left candles in remembrance of the movement’s wounded in clashes with police.

Drouet was detained while reportedly en-route to the memorial. Footage of the arrest shows several French riot police escort him away from the crowds while supporters chant his name while he is being led away.

After that, several other protesters were grabbed from the crowd and led away by police while remaining Yellow Vests sang the national anthem.

Tweeting his support for the man, left-wing politician Jean-Luc Melenchon called the arrest an “abuse of power,” and the target of p

Yellow Vest Ireland: Promise and Potential

The Yellow Vest movement finally reached Ireland this on Saturday 15/12/18, with approximately 200 people taking to the streets of Dublin in hi-vis yellow vests, protesting among other things, the government of Taoiseach Leo Varadkar, and his regime of nanny-statism and extortionate taxation.
