The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss the increasingly violent protests that broke out in France this weekend as Macron, under the cover of a general mainstream media blackout, continues to use police force to quell the Yellow Vests.
Meanwhile the neo-liberal media failed to report on protests and strikes in Mexico, where 25,000 Mexican workers, mostly from foreign owned auto border factories, broke with their unions to demand more pay and better working conditions.
People are being squeezed by global corporations and the politicians are doing nothing to help. They won't protect jobs or pay (preferring to flood 1st world countries with the poor of the world, keeping wages down, and squeezing the poor in the 2nd or 3rd world).
The protests won't stop in France until either Macron resigns or at the point he becomes a French Nationalist. Perhaps this will end when the French Generals decide to act.
