They gathered to say ‘no’ to austerity and budget cuts, as well as Hollande’s policies which have been dictated by EU authorities in Brussels.
The protesters carried banners and signs saying “Austerity kills” and “They betrayed Jean Jaures (the leader of French socialists in the early 1900s).”
“These austerity policies consist of massive cuts in social spending and huge tax breaks for big corporations. That’s precisely what Hollande promised not to do,” a demonstrator told RT.
During Hollande’s presidency, the country’s tax burden has increased by 40 billion euros, unemployment has risen to 3.3 million, and government spending has reached 57 percent of GDP.
A recent survey by YouGov revealed that the president’s approval rating has fallen to a record low of 12 percent.
France has seen a wave of rallies in recent weeks, with people also protesting against police brutality and sanctions against Russia that left the products of local farmers rotting.
