c'est La Vie !

this is what the French have done for a couple of centuries - protest , often violently , it's their hobby
at present it's about Macron puting the ridiculously low retirement age up - all credit to him for having the guts to do what needed doing

it's just the French way to be greedy ....they want their early retirement and someone else to pay for it

so don't try and spin this and say the people re not wanting to support Ukraine - that's not true at all

and ....Xi has been told , politely but firmly , if he wants a relationship with Europe ,,,,,DO NOT support russia with weapons
