We all feel anger and shame this evening.

Louis Boyard harshly criticized Emmanuel Macron's speech, which he described as a lack of respect towards young people. He believed that the youth could not accept mobilizing for three weeks to receive, in his opinion, eight minutes without a concrete response. The deputy called on the president to end his strategy of delay and repression, and to respond quickly to the demands of the youth. He mentioned price caps, a raise in salaries, and 10 billion euros for the youth, as well as decent living, working, and studying conditions. He deemed it irresponsible to postpone these measures or to defer them to a new consultation. #Jeunesse #Mobilisation #Respect (translated)

Nathalie Arthaud stated that more than 500,000 people had protested in the country, compared to 260,000 on October 6. She criticized Lecornu for only talking about rioters and thieves, while the media, according to her, focused on the destruction. She wrote that this coverage would not silence the young people, workers, and retirees facing difficulties in living and revolted by injustice, inequalities, racism, and police violence. According to her, the government had been trying since the beginning of the student mobilization to hide a social anger that it did not want to address, but which was overflowing. Arthaud called for organizing mobilization in companies, where workers are gathered and produce wealth, and to meet there the following day to formulate demands. #Manifestation #ColèreSociale #Injustice (translated)
