The pension age in the UK will be 70 very soon. The English accept anything! Power to the people. Well done France!
Power influenced by the people, not to the people.
I retired at 50 and claim sick pay. I wasn't planning on working till I were 67 before I could retire. You have to use the system the way the government use the system, and that's lie, cheat, steal, and break every promise
i saw a guy aged 80 working in asda so it's happening now
70 is freakin insane! So 70 yo scaffolders and plasterers?
@@karimtabrizi376 sure he didn’t just want something to do?
My mum is one of the WASPI women who got years of pension STOLEN.
Unbelievable that we all just accepted it really.
👍
im in agreement. It is unacceptable that your mum wasn't appreciated by the govt! the minority of wealthy elite do not care about us & it would take a miracle to get people to fight for change now, sadly.
We? Millions of Real Heroes GB FF stood up were beaten up by the clones let down by cowards
If it was happening to men there would have been more protest.
Barely a word about this in the mainstream. Wouldn't want to give the rest of us ideas.
Not in Sweden. The media is trying to cover it up. Almost nothing about all riots in France last years
Really proud of the French and I’m not French they fight for what they believe in
I don't know if they translated the anthem that the demonstrators sing for you, but understand that it is also addressed to all the workers in the world.😁
The text is short but simple: We are here, we are here, even if Macron does not want us, we are here, for the honor of the workers and for a better world, even if Macron does not want to, we are here."
Merci ;)
Yeah! France leader of freedom of speech 😂😂😂
They're kicking off because remain just bankr upped them🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
they want you to fight each other
you have to go after the people "in charge"
burning each other and the buildings will do nothing
go after the royal family

Find something to get upset about that actually matters.
The police need to side with the people and walk off the job.
I like how the French want to:
- keep retirement age at age 62
- keep on drinking alc at noon while at work
- keep the same living standard besides demographics and increased costs for the elderly
- keep the right to have as many labor unions as they want and each of em can negotiate independently with the same employer (yep, look it up).
- want fishing rights in British national waters but don't want to give a single thing
- they want the German Tank technologies and don't want to include the German manufacturer as equal partner (lol)
- they still want control over the former French colonies in NorthAfrica but don't care about reconciliation and fair historical accounts what happened then.
- they want the Chinese and Russian state to be closer partners to France and Europe than the U.S (yes...almost 50% of em voted for LePen on exactly that issue).
It's not about pension it about WEF controlling the French government
@@user-xi2mu8uj1r look at your “country” first, you’re government isn’t a good exemple. Don’t talk about the French people, talk about our government, 2 différents things. You can give lessons once you understand it.
@@user-xi2mu8uj1r Actually nothing wrong with that last point.. Russia as an enemy was created by the U.S to force Europe into “needing” the U.S.. Russia wanted to be part of nato in the 90s, they were allies in two world wars, they are a European nation, since when were they the bad guys? If Europe have Russia they don’t need the U.S and the U.S go from a global power to a regional power.. Nothing wrong with wanting to get away from a nation who are obsessed with war in the name of “democracy”, a nation who claims to be the land of the free but has a bill of rights that gives it’s people far less rights than the average nation.. Wars happen constantly to keep the U.S on top, the scumbags can rot ffs.

No matter what stereotypes there are on France. We can't deny that France has always been the inspiration of moving forward. Wish them the best from Poland.
Thank you! ❤
It is however an impression cause we are just used to disagree about every decision (good or bad) and have a serious lack of education. Which does not help to move forward actually...
Stereotypes are made up by mass media. Do you think the world is ok? We do it for justice and progress.
True the stereotype that says "french people are cowards" it's definitly false
Thank you
Amazing to see people rising up and fighting the corrupt criminal government.
It's not the government. It's rich people. The government is firmly against this. This is Macron pimping for rich people.
They really aren’t fighting the government, they r judge rioting. This energy needs to be political in form, with some protesting. The fat cats in the government, the riots don’t touch them.
Interesting to note that U.S. corporate media has instead focused its sight on public shootings and racial crimes. 🥱They're employing the same cards. Not a hint of the French uproar.
Corrupted by juice.
Don't call these animals "people". And don't call thefts and davastations "rising up". Shame on you France, again! 😒
Retirement age is going up globally, but life expectancy is now on a rapid decline. The figures of people not making retirement is staggering. People are being worked too hard, and work related stress is astronomical. Can’t blame the French rebellion , can you?
Of course not! Everything you state is true! Facts! Most people do not even make it up to 62! They get sick BEFORE they turn 62, worn out bodies! The French PAY for their retirement & the Pension Fund is HEALTHY!!! It is said they want to get their grip on that huge capital & promote private Insurances...The French are not stupid! They know what is going on behind the scenes of corrupted Politicians :(
Pity people in our country aren't as militant as the French,Stop being so apathetic British people!!!✌️🇬🇧
Indeed, my dad passed away earlier this year aged 69, thankfully he worked at Dagenham Ford so he retired at 55.

Remains going well.
Have any of these protests achieved anything? No? 😂😂😂 The government won and this is all a mass tantrum.
You're responsible for your own actions and violence, as the lowest form of communication, only begets violence. Try using democracy to vote out your opponents, and if you can't then maybe you're not in the majority opinion.

But you're weak les rosbeefs.
Funny this reporter says militant protesters are causing violence seconds before the cops fire teargas towards him, also noticed he said property damage is violence but not the police brutality and antagonising.
Yep, mostly peaceful when it's attacking our heritage. Mostly extremist when attacking the very people who are causing the strife to begin with.
Channel 4 news, garbage bin of journalism.
Thank you for your comment. Yesterday a man had his hand litterally shredded by a police grenade, and a man said his teenage daughter may be loosing one of her eyes because of another grenade. Since the start of the movement several people had to suffer an amputation of an eye, a hand, and testicles, as the result of massive levels of police violence. Students in Brittany said they were sexually assaulted while in police custody. Their testimony is terrifying. But the media just prefer to look the other way, and the perpetrators never have to suffer any consequences for their crimes. This is also a massive part of what make demonstrators so angry these days against the government. There's zero trust in the police.
Oh, but setting a cop in fire is totally fine, right? You know they're humans too, right?
You go France. Long live the revolution!🇫🇷

@Rhys Mayes good police are few and far between these days . Nazis were also "working" . I'm not condoning setting ANYONE on fire but we are coming to a time when morals should choose your side over who pays your wages.
VIVE LA RÉVOLUTION … VIVE LA FRANCE 🇫🇷 …AUX ARMES CITOYENS FORMEZ VOS BATAILLONS …
then again, the problem is not the age going from 62 to 64. it's how the government passed the law : without a vote, without a consultation. they decided so, without asking the people. they simply said "that is the law now." in the country of Human Rights. now, we are as angry as ever, against a system that is unfair to people who keep labouring their lives away, and we are angry at that very system deciding for them. how on Earth is it fair ? how do we trust people who have a comfortable pay and retirement, to decide for people who will serve them until they literally die ?
these protests are not against the age going from 62 to 64. they are against an unfair system that favours privileged people and how they decide on OUR future. we, the people who provide them for food, light, water, electricity, and any sort of service they wish for.
and you know what I find funny ? both national and international medias are depicting the protests as extremely violent. this was absolutely not the case. I literally just came from this Paris protests and it was peaceful, joyous, engaged. from 2pm to 6pm, people were shouting slogans, singing, dancing, sharing. there was an incredible feeling of humanity in this shared anger towards a government that stays blind and deaf to its people. reducing the demonstrations to "explosions in Paris" is a lie, a blatant lie. shame on them. you are being shown only half the truth and I'm sorry this is the only side medias will ever show.
merci monsieur!
C'est pour ça que les manif sont un bide monumental si tu t'arrêtes de manifester a 18h après 4h de marche...
thanks, i was thinking that just 2 years wasn't really that bad but that explains it
Both are problems ! I can’t imagine a firefighter doing his job at 64 !
the law was passed in acordance with the provisions of the French constitution.if the Parliament was against it then they could have striked down the government and have a general election..they didnt.basically the deputies wanted the law to pass just not by them🧐
This is clearly not about pensions.
I'm asking the same!....i'm from Argentina and i would lile to know!!!
C'est uniquement la retraite
Hurra for the French people!!!! ❤ In Denmark the retirement age is 71 😂 in the Nordics people just accept almost everything they are told to by the authorities.
Depends on when you were born.
They accept almost everything, they are wrong.

We need to be more like the people of France here in the UK. They go beserk because the pension age was increased by two years, mine was increased years ago to 66, my sister's was increased to 68! There was not a whimper from the people of this country, if the French were subject to the rip-off price increases in our food and fuel that we have been allowed to happen here, there would be a revolution in France - but historically apathetic Britons do sod all, and the government knows it too.

Everything we got in France has been through revolutions… time and time again the people had to revolt, sometimes it was violent indeed, in order to have their rights respected. I am afraid we are going that way again… Macron has woken up all the frustrations, all the pains of the past years, showing only disdain, repeatedly, for the lower classes. As a total maniac, he is unable to give back to calm the situation, and each passing day adds to the anger…
The people of democracy can't get their rights by democracy but by violence!!!

@@Captain.Pugwash All candidate are against France . France is a strategic position and have to be destroy
@@Captain.Pugwash Voting is not the alpha and omega of democracy...
Besides, representative democracy is only a sub-delegation of democracy. It is not directly the people who write their laws and have them passed.
There have been enough philosophers (at least in France) to lay the foundations of democracy, the philosophers of the Enlightenment. Rousseau, Montaigne, Montesquieu, Tocqueville and so on...
To vote for a person is not to vote for a program, and to vote for a program is not yet to lead the city ourselves.
So when a single individual decides alone to dispense with the vote of the National Assembly, it's even worse.
We cannot leave our authoritarian excesses unanswered.
For some odd reason the new retirement law does not effect the French police, probably just a coincidence...
Il faut bien qu'ils aient des chiens de garde pour nous matraquer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Diviser pour mieux régner.
Sans armée et sans police, Macron est seul, c'est le dernier rempart qu'il lui reste.
That's a lie, they will have 2 more years like everybody else. Thing IS they go from 52 to 54, ten years less than the rest of us
Completely false… they also gained 2 years from 52 to 54 don’t say completely false things in the comments, you spread misinformation.
@@whod74 there is a lot of difference between 54 and 64.

So here in the U.S. we haven't had that kind of demonstration against retirement and economy in many years. We do protest against anti abortion and we do anti racism demos. But economic issues no. I think perhaps that should change. I hate violence and I also hate the violence our lawmakers the world over perpetrate onto us to kiss up to corporate greed. France has the money, the U.S. has the money, the problems are that the rich guard against the masses. Does that sound familiar?

The legal retirement age is France is 67 (it used to be 65) except for people who started to work early and cumulated enough years of pension contribution to retire at 62, now they’ll have to wait until they reach 64. The workers who started early generally worked in strenuous and physically demanding jobs and arrive at the end of their career physically diminished, these are the people who are been asked to continue to work for whatever little savings Macron thinks the state will do. These new French laws and the retirement regulations are misrepresented in the UK, it’s quite tiring actually. It’s not what it looks like.
If you have planned for your retirement and have a decent Employers and or Private pension, the State Pension is just something extra.
We never stop ! This law should be withdrawn and Macron go away. Thank you for your support

I'm not sure the reporter is up to the task. He lacks a real curiosity about what The People are assembling for. He could try talking to them
Doesn't want to ask about vat, who controls the vat. Doesn't want to ask why governments want to decrease pensions or who is behind said pension reforms. Doesn't want to ask the majority why they are sick and tired of the minority and who is in control.....
He gets paid to not ask the real questions.
Finally people power.
May 1st, 2023. A spiral of violence 😢 I have never seen such rage , such anger before … They went crazy , breaking , burning , robbery but also batons and detention
It is disheartening to see the streets of a prominent European nation turn into a site of conflict and unrest. The recent protests in France have transformed some of its thoroughfares into what could be mistaken for a warzone. The scenes of violence and chaos are a stark reminder of the deep-seated social and economic issues that have fueled this unrest. It is clear that the citizens of France are passionate about their causes and are willing to take to the streets to make their voices heard. However, it is important that these demonstrations remain peaceful and respectful, allowing for constructive dialogue and meaningful change to take place

Vous avez raison aussi..courage et soyez prudent retraite a cette âge là. Il y a un problème quand. Courage soutien de France..😮
Keep repeating the line that this is about a retirement age and maybe it will become true ? The world knows this is about much more. Viva France ! Power to the people ! Support from Canada, keep fighting them !
How ridicules is this…. Hurting those who trying to help! They should be glad they have any pension & can afford to retire!
The riot squad trying to help 🤡
Yeh don’t worry about plod! All that gear is fire proof an they are well trained in how to deal with it an how to put it out.
A bit of psychological trauma here and there but hey, that's the job they signed for.
It’s all about perspective really. If our Prime Minister in Australia announced he was going to make the retiring age 64 he would become the most popular Prime Minister in our history. Pension age in Australia was raised from 65 to 72 several years ago by the liberal (conservative) party. The then Treasurer, hockey, announced it was the end of the age of entitlement and everybody born the year after he was born would not be able to draw the old age pension until they reached 72🤬
Never underestimate the power of baguette 😂
Power to the people
Viva la France ✊
*Vive
