France's Macron reeling as tough stance against 'yellow vests' backfires | Reuters

'Both yellow vests and “casseurs”, hooded youths from anti-capitalist or anarchist groups, appeared to be involved. '

'PARIS (Reuters) - Emmanuel Macron intended to start the new year on the offensive against the ‘yellow vest’ protesters. '

'Two months on, it has not found a way to soothe the yellow vests’ anger and meet their demands, which include a higher minimum wage, a more participative democracy and Macron’s resignation. '

'Macron’s government has been shaken by the unrest, caught off-guard when in November the yellow vests began blocking roads, occupying highway tollbooths and staging violent invasions of Paris and other cities on weekends. '
