Last night, via some Brit broadcast...they had up to around 40 different demands on the table. The fact that there is no central leadership...makes this a wild ‘ride’.

One the demands I noted....earlier retirement ages. That’s a no-go for the Macron government. The pension program is already in serious trouble, so shaving off another year probably won’t happen.

The punk-kid protesters want the mandatory civic duty forced upon them to be lifted entirely.

Then they haven’t learned their lesson about socialism. If their demands are a mixture just wanting their country back and wanting more free handouts, I don’t think this movement will go far.

Mandatory civic duty is stupid and I would hate it as much as they do.
