French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe has announced a six-month suspension of the fuel tax hike which triggered massive unrest across the country, saying the measure is aimed at stopping the violence and restoring public order.
The French government will suspend the fuel tax rise for six months to calm down the Yellow Vest protests, Prime Minister Edouard Philippe said in a televised speech on Tuesday. He stressed that no tax should endanger public unity and “the violence must stop.”
Philippe said the protests represented “the anger of the France that works hard and struggles to make ends meet.” Despite the concessions, he slammed rioters who assaulted police, saying they will be found and put on trial.
The fuel taxes will not rise until they are debated by all stakeholders and the French people. He also promised to increase the minimum wage by 3 percent next year and direct the government to focus on improving living standards.
This is not going to save Macron
He is just as arrogant and ignorant as Jr Jackass
The French rioting is not only about his fuel tax increase
But It is the final straw for the frogs
He will not shut down their borders and will sign the UN Compact against the will of his people
This will not end well for Macron but he is too arrogant and stupid to realize it
It will come to the same here in Canada when the people finally wake up and have had enough of the Royal eye brows
I hope PM Dipshit is watching, but I doubt it. He is too busy preening in the mirror trying to look just right to hug those one million new migrants once he signs the Compact.
Take a good look at the two men in that photo above. Both Socialist trying to usher in Communism and create their feudal states.
Trudeau has sabotage oil pipelines and refused to build them blaming others. Macron is doing the same thing by increasing fuel prices so high that they are unaffordable for the French people.
that needs to be done here
