Only authorised union protests will be allowed in French towns and cities on Saturday, President Emmanuel Macron has said, after demonstrations across the country turned violent last weekend.
Speaking as some cities including Lyon and Nice imposed complete bans, Macron said "illegitimate" protests would not be allowed but unions would be offered alternative routes so that businesses could be protected.
Big demonstrations against the high cost of living and school conditions were overshadowed last Saturday by riots and looting that saw business and historic buildings destroyed.
Interior Minister Jean-Didier Berger said police deployments would be increased by 20% compared to last weekend, after the government was accused of being blindsided by the scale of the unrest.
France's justice minister said on Thursday that 217 people had been jailed over last weekend's disorder after being convicted in fast-track trials, with that number expected to rise.
GĂ©rald Darmanin said 2,700 people had been arrested across France and more than 1,000 have appeared in court.
Half of those detained had no prior criminal record, he said, according to Le Figaro newspaper.
Macron met intelligence services and ministers on Thursday, to prepare for the next national day of protests on Saturday.

Well that was easy enough! Who would have thought?
Next message: Burning Buildings Down is Prohibited...
Arson will be limited to ugly buildings we didn’t like anyways.
Good luck with that froggy.
Protestors thugs are leftist foot soldiers
…except those buildings “authorized” for burning
EU Democracy.
Macron said "illegitimate" protests would not be allowed but unions would be offered alternative routes so that businesses could be protected.
OTOH:Macron says no one in the French government understands what is happening, but he is demanding an investigation... [then does a 180 and] says high fuel prices driven by President Trump’s war against Iran... is certainly the cause of the protests that have mysteriously turned violent for some unknown reason. Macron further notes those protests are righteous, justified and he agrees with them.
I’m certain that when the muslim invaders hear Macron’s demand, they will totally sit out the weekend’s rioting, looting, and destruction.
No really, Macron already them on double secret probation, and after that it will be…. Uh.. Triple secret probation, and nobody wants that.
UBBDB is now formed
United Brotherhood of Burning Down Buildings
The muslim union?
Good luck with all that.
We’ll see what the moslem hordes have to say about this.
General Secretary Ceausescu has authorized official protests to be led by the National Confederation of Socialist Trade Unions.
