There have been no meaningful concessions.

Crushing higher taxes were merely postponed another six months. They won't work any better then they the do now. And raising the minimum wage will do nothing effective. Nobody is hiring.

Demonizing "the rich" and taking all their money is not going to help either. There isn't enough.

France has run out of "other people's money" to pay for their socialist extravagance. There simply is not enough loot remaining in their economy to buy off the different factions which have been promised benefits. The factions are not taking kindly to being shorted. Too many people's lives depend on continued payments from the Government.

“Too many people’s lives depend on continued payments from the Government.”

There is always hell to pay for anyone that ever tries to take away bennies.

The lesson here is, before you give out goodies, make absolutely sure you can afford to do so, FOREVER, because taking them back may cost you your neck.
