In each of his terms, French President Emanuel Macron drove the French people to take to the streets refusing his policies on fuel taxes in 2018, and on pension reform in 2023, said British daily “The Guardian”.
Macron had predicted, in 2016, a revolution in his memoir-cum-personal manifesto against outmoded institutions holding back France, but he did not know that he is the embodiment of such “outmoded institutions”, according to the Guardian.
The newspaper described the recent protests as “the largest protests in the history of the Fifth Republic”, following the retirement reform.
Macron used the No-Confidence Vote to bypass the National assembly because he was sure that the 49.3 law will not be approved, following the loss of the majority.
“Marine Le Pen and the far right may well be the principal beneficiaries of that” because of the normalization between French people with the Far Right, and the “trust deficit in French Politics” said the British paper.
