Paris Protests LIVE: Massive Protests in France as Macron Faces Anger Over Budget Cuts
France was hit by a nationwide strike on September 18 as unions and citizens protested government austerity measures. Several trains stopped, schools and pharmacies closed, and hospital staff went on strike. The unrest followed Prime Minister François Bayrou’s resignation after proposing €44 billion in cuts, including pension freezes and scrapping public holidays. His successor, Sébastien Lecornu, faced immediate opposition as demonstrations spread from Paris to Marseille and Lyon. Protesters demanded “tax the rich” and called for Macron’s resignation. The government deployed 80,000 security forces, using tear gas in major cities. Unions set a 24 September deadline for further action.
