Didier Maïsto believed that the police unions bore a heavy responsibility. He criticized them for defending police misconduct on television and for supporting Emmanuel Macron and his governments. According to him, during the Yellow Vests movement, the unions should have called on the police to lower their shields and not to strike people who were struggling to make a living from their work. Maïsto also stated that repression did not solve political problems and that the police had, in turn, become victims of the executive. He called on their unions to defend them by refusing to provide coverage for the protests, believing that this decision would hasten the end of "Macronism" and gain the support of the people. #Syndicats #Police #GiletsJaunes (translated)
