The approval ratings for Macron have never been this low. His electoral power rests on a very narrow base of wealthy French people and university-educated individuals from the upper middle class. He lost the parliamentary elections two years ago, but due to the way French democracy works, a president can simply remain in power, even if a majority of left- and right-wing French people reject his policies. The political support for Macron has only become narrower in recent years – and the sense of powerlessness among the French has grown even greater, notes French economist Bruno Amable, author of the book L’Illusion du bloc bourgeois (2017). #Frankrijk #protesten #geweld (translated)
