Meanwhile, what exactly will it take for this protest to cease? It seems that all sorts of bandwagons have been hitched to it (sorry about dodgy metaphor). The fuel tax has been reduced. Some people just seem to be relishing a fight and a chance to loot places. Very sad for businesses and services relying on Christmas sales in towns and I was struck by one poster's story about her elderly nieghbour who couldn't get to market to sell her produce. Is France shooting itself in the foot? (Oh no! Another dodgy metaphor)
