Eleven weeks into protests, the Yellow Vest movement shows no sign of abating. The unyielding demonstrators rallying against President Emmanuel Macron’s reform agenda now plan to stage their first night protest in Paris.
Calls for the protests in the French capital to continue into the night have appeared in many Yellow Vest groups on Facebook. Some of the groups also vowed to stage such rallies on a regular basis until the end of national consultations on the issues raised by the demonstrators.
“We’ll gather every night from this Saturday onwards, and we’ll keep coming till at least the end of the national consultation [Grand Debat],” one Facebook post read. “We’ll make Place de la République our giant ring road.”
The organizers promised that there would be no “violence” or “threatening behavior” during the night rallies, adding that the nocturnal marches would be held by “pacifist citizens” denouncing “violent and undemocratic repression” of the Yellow Vest movement by French law enforcement.
