Restrictions on protesting imposed by the prefectures in France are raising growing concerns about the rule of law, as mobilizations to denounce the high cost of living and demand better working conditions are planned for Saturday, October 24. #LibertéDeManifester #ÉtatDeDroit #Mobilisation (translated)

Ilan Gabet wrote that the Union of Magistrates had referred the Council of State to challenge a recommendation from Emmanuel Macron to the prefects regarding the prohibition of unreported demonstrations by unions. According to him, the appeal argued that trade union freedom did not grant unions exclusive rights to demonstrate, which also belonged to individuals without affiliation to any organization. He also reported that Emmanuel Macron had recommended the absence of demonstrations in the following days, particularly on Saturday, and that the prefects would propose alternative routes to trade union organizations while prohibiting as much as possible gatherings organized without them. #LibertéDeManifester #Syndicats #Démocratie (translated)

Emmanuel Macron announced that only demonstrations organized by unions would be allowed, a statement that has sparked outrage among legal experts who believe it infringes on constitutional principles of the freedom to protest. #LibertéDeManifester #EmmanuelMacron #DroitPublic (translated)

Seydi Ba wrote that the text would not only target individuals who have committed damage, for which compensation is already provided by law, but also the protesters. According to him, they could be required to pay up to 10,000 euros if violence broke out in a march, even if they did not participate, and family benefits could be seized, imposing the penalty on their family. He estimated that the government was thus trying to empty the streets through the law and denounced a serious and unconstitutional violation of the right to protest, which he presented as a new slide. #LibertéDeManifester #DroitsCiviques #RéformeLégislative (translated)

Quand on casse, on doit en payer les conséquences. C’est le sens du projet de loi « casseurs-payeurs » présenté ce matin en Conseil des ministres. Manifester est une liberté fondamentale. Mais trop souvent des casseurs profitent des manifestations pour commettre des violences #CasseursPayeurs #LibertéDeManifester #ViolencesEnManifestation #Iln'yapasdementionsexplicitesdepaysdansletweet.
