    Here's another where the police appear to be joining the protesters:

    Great story, but... this footage was posted last November, and there are mixed messages of whether it was Rothschilds Bank or Banque de France, which is near Place de la Bastille.

    Here's some clearer footage that claims to be Rothschilds Bank, maybe someone who knows Paris better can confirm where it is?

    Courageous Macron Restarts the Yellow Vests Protest Movement Against Himself

    Marko Marjanović
    7 hours ago


    In a move with consequences that anyone could have predicted Macron has galvanized another protest movement against him. Call it the Yellow Vests 2.0 for now.

    Macron had been plagued by Europe’s most resilient protest movement for most of his mandate but caught a lucky break with COVID-19. The Mind Virus of 2020 allowed him to decree lockdowns which also took care of Gilet Jaunes.

    Rather than remember he owed his new-found situation as a ruler not facing weekly uprisings to an extremely unlikely gift, he went out of his way to provoke them once again by decreeing Europe’s most Draconian vaccine passport regime.

    Why would Macron pull such a self-injuring move? A few possibilities come to mind:
    • After 16 months of lording it over the French people with decree he felt they were now broken and ready to accept anything whatsoever.
    • He thought a Stalinist line on vaccine religion could serve to further divide and suppress the Yellow Vests. (Harder to go for a protest when you’re banned from the train.)
    • Merkel is retiring and he’s coveting the position of EU’s unofficial leader. Forcing through EU’s most South African “virus” regime would impress the classes he is auditioning for.
    Perhaps French speakers could contribute other reasons. Whatever Macron’s motivation for the virus apartheid, it has backfired already.

    Gilet Jaunes, welcome back!

    [...]

    Lol. He didn't think anything. He was ordered to implement this by the globalists to beta-test/test market the vaccine passport in france. Perhaps, they figured if they could get it to work in France, they could pull it off anywhere.

    I will be starving myself to death before I take the shot and poo on my immune system. Better I die from nature than lose to these clowns

    From https://muslimskeptic.com/2021/07/19...accine-centers, reported yesterday:

    French Protestors Enraged by Covid Restrictions, Burn Vaccine Centers



    Yet another French revolution is brewing. This time, it’s the Monarchs of Vaxx being overthrown.
    BBC:
    Two vaccination centres have been ransacked in France, as people protested against the introduction of tougher coronavirus rules.
    One site in south-east France was vandalised and flooded using fire hoses on Friday night, authorities said.
    A day later, another clinic in the south-west was partially destroyed by an arson attack, local media reported.
    The French can be very violent and bloodthirsty people. Now they are out marching in the hundreds of thousands.
    The incidents came on a weekend of demonstrations. More than 100,000 came out to protest on Saturday.
    Critics have accused President Emmanuel Macron’s government of violating freedoms by introducing new rules.
    The most controversial of the rules include mandatory vaccinations for health workers and health passes to access most public places.
    Mandatory vaccinations used to be a “conspiracy theory.” Now countries like France are clamping down on their citizens, forcing them to get injections that seem to do very little at preventing covid infection and subsequent death.

    Basically, France has told its citizens, get vaccinated or starve to death. And, surprisingly, people are not too happy about that.
    Meanwhile at a rally on Saturday, French politician Martine Wonner told protesters to “lay siege” to the offices of lawmakers who backed the government’s Covid policies.
    A high profile sceptic of Covid vaccines, she faces a potential legal inquiry for this. She was forced to quit her opposition group in parliament on Sunday, but said her words had been misconstrued.
    France has seen several acts of violence and vandalism against lawmakers who supported the new vaccination rules.
    How severe will the violence get against the pro-vaccination politicians in France? Will they continue to risk their lives by pushing a Pfizer and Moderna agenda?

    Investigation opened into giant Macron-Hitler billboard comparing Covid policy to Nazi regime

    The Toulon prosecutor's office has opened an investigation into a defamatory poster which conflates images of French President Emmanuel Macron and Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, amid criticism of ongoing Covid-19 restrictions.

    A billboard seen on the outskirts of Toulon and La Seyne-sur-Mer, displaying an image of French President Emmanuel Macron dressed in a Nazi uniform and sporting Adolf Hitler’s trademark toothbrush moustache, has caught the attention of the city’s prosecutor, according to local media reports.

    A report in France Bleu on Tuesday morning stated that the Toulon prosecutor’s office had now opened an investigation into the defamatory posters displayed in the Var department.

    The investigation has been entrusted to the departmental security of the Toulon police force and targets the owner of these signs, who initiated the display. According to reports, last week one of the two posters simply displayed the word ‘Honte’, meaning ‘Shame’.

    The billboard also features the letters LREM – an abbreviation for Macron’s La Republique En Marche party – squeezed into a white circle, replacing the swastika, on the infamous red background adopted by the German Nazi party.

    Responding to the news on Twitter, one person called on the culprits not to be sent to jail but to be forced to copy Hitler’s famous ‘Mein Kampf’ in all languages with a quill pen.

    France’s leader has experienced a substantial backlash since enforcing mandatory vaccines for certain groups, including health workers, and introducing vaccine passports for entry to leisure and cultural venues. According to a poll by public opinion agency IFOP for Le Journal du Dimanche (JDD) newspaper, Macron’s approval went down by 13 points among people aged 18-24, although support grew among retirees.

    On Saturday, as many as 114,000 people rallied across France to protest what they believe is an unjust intrusion into their private lives. Protesters chanted “Liberty!” and demanded that Macron resign.

    Sadly not, Gwin Ru... you can't rely on the BBC to tell the truth...

    I went through to the link and I didn't see that quote in the story, but when I went back to check I got 'bad gateway'. They've obviously realised that putting out a news story about the fight against the tyranny is a bad idea and have taken it down!

    (Update - just tried the link again and it worked... strange...)

    Looking again, the second link is to the Guardian; surprising to find such a story there, though. They may be left-leaning but they're still MSM.

    'Hands off my natural immunity': French protest against COVID health pass

    Hundreds of people protested in Paris on Wednesday against the introduction of a health pass for some activities and against compulsory vaccinations for health workers as the government seeks to curb a fourth wave of COVID-19 infections in France.

    From Wednesday visitors heading to museums, cinemas or swimming pools in France will be denied entry if they cannot produce the health pass showing that they have been vaccinated against COVID-19 or have had a recent negative test.

    Some of the protesters waved banners that read "Freedom to choose" and "Hands off my natural immunity!"

    "They want to force us to be vaccinated at any price. No, no, no", Nathalie Labedade, a care home worker, told Reuters.

    The health pass, previously only required for large-scale festivals or to go clubbing, will also be needed from the start of August to enter restaurants and bars and for long-distance train and plane journeys.

    At the Louvre museum in Paris, the head of security, Servane de Landsheer, said the first morning of health pass checks had gone well, with most visitors having the document and those who did not agreeing to get a quick COVID test.

    "I was really angry... I had no idea," said Nelly Breton, 51, after being turned away from the Louvre as not enough time had elapsed since her vaccination for her pass to become valid.

    "But then I calmed down and understood there were health reasons," she said, adding that she would now look for a pharmacy to get a rapid COVID test.

    TOUGH NEW RULES

    With the highly contagious Delta variant now dominant in France, tougher measures are essential and new lockdowns cannot be ruled out, Prime Minister Jean Castex told TF1 television, adding that vaccination was the only way out of the crisis.

    The introduction of the health pass - a QR code on your smartphone or on a piece of paper - is part of a wide-ranging bill which parliament will vote on this week.

    The bill introduces some of the toughest anti-COVID measures in Europe, including mandatory vaccination for health workers and 10 days of self-isolation for those who test positive.

    The sharp rise in infections makes the draft law necessary, the government says. Health Minister Olivier Veran said some 21,000 new COVID cases had been registered in the past 24 hours, up from around 4,000 new cases a day at the start of July.

    Some 96% of those who tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday had not been vaccinated, Castex said, adding that he hoped the number of people receiving their first shot would hit 50 million by the end of August, in a total population of 67 million. The figure stood at about 38.1 million as of Tuesday.

    The new health pass, in particular, has proved hugely contentious. More than 100,000 people joined rallies across France last weekend against a pass they say infringes their liberties. More protests are expected in the coming days.

    Police sources fear the rallies could escalate into the kind of large-scale protests staged by the anti-government 'yellow vest' movement, which caused major disruption for about two years before being curbed by the COVID lockdowns.

    Holders of the health pass can remove their face masks once indoors - in a loosening of precautions criticised by epidemiologists - unless local authorities or the business itself decide otherwise.

    Businesses which fail to check that their clients have the health pass could eventually face fines totalling thousands of euros, but the government said there would be a grace period, to give everyone time to adapt to the new system.

    Regional prefects will be able to take further measures on a case-by-case basis, such as requiring businesses to shut earlier than usual or imposing the wearing of face masks outdoors - as has happened in recent days in areas with surging infections.

    French hospital goes on INDEFINITE strike to protest Covid-19 vaccination mandate

    The staff of the hospital in Montelimar, in the French department of Drome, have gone on indefinite strike to protest the new rules demanding they take a vaccine against Covid-19 by mid-September or face losing their jobs.

    The strike against “forced vaccination” was announced on Thursday by the CGT-GHPP trade union, and affects some 200 doctors and 1,500 nurses in the southeastern French city.

    Hundreds of them gathered outside the hospital on Friday, denouncing lockdowns and vaccine mandates and chanting “liberté!” (freedom).
    The French legislature is finalizing the proposal that would require all medical professionals in contact with the vulnerable to be fully vaccinated by September 15, or else lose their salaries and even their jobs.
    “We are against mandatory vaccination and vaccine coercion,” Elsa Ruillere, local union representative, told Sputnik France.

    “There is no choice between tests or vaccination: vaccination is compulsory. No, we don't agree. We want to have the choice like the rest of the world and we do not want compulsory vaccination.”

    Ruillere says her union supports “free and informed consent” and is not against vaccination on principle but is against coercion. Some of the medical workers said they are waiting for the French-made Sanofi-GSK vaccine, promised for December.

    “We are well aware of the evolution of the virus. We do not take it lightly,” Ruillere said. However, she and her striking colleagues point out that even with the rise in positive tests for the Delta variant of the coronavirus, there is no commensurate rise in hospitalizations.
    “Yes, we turned ‘red’ but that's in fact due to the positive tests. In terms of hospitalizations, we are fine at the moment, we did not need to reopen beds, we have far fewer hospitalized people than before and fewer people in intensive care,” she added.
    Another union gripe is the lack of public debate, since France’s National Assembly seems to have simply proceeded on the advice of the High Health Authority (HAS), which called the vaccination mandate “justified.”

    There have been widespread protests in France since mid-July, as the government of President Emmanuel Macron imposed the vaccination mandate on health workers and introduced a health pass requirement to access public venues with more than 50 people in attendance. The pass requirement will extend to cafes, restaurants and shops starting August 1.

    There has been a 150% increase in coronavirus cases over the past week in France, attributed to the Delta variant. The government says 96% of those infected are unvaccinated.

    As a gesture it's very powerful.

    They're welcome to come over to Britain and do the same at Chequers, preferably in the banqueting hall during dinner, with guests present

    The French parliament has approved a bill to further tighten requirements for mandatory Covid-19 vaccinations and health passes in response to the Delta variant. The new constraints come amid mounting protests in France.

    The new restrictions in Monday morning’s bill mean that French health workers will be obligated to receive the vaccine. The need for health passes will also be imposed across more areas of society, leaving fewer social activities and transport options available for those who are opposed to the jab.

    Monday’s bill means that the health pass – a vaccine passport or a negative test – will be required in bars and restaurants, on long-distance train journeys, and on flights.

    Prior to the measures approved on Monday, President Emmanuel Macron had already applied the health pass to museums, cinemas and swimming pools, following the spread of the Delta variant in early July.

    The bill still needs final approval by France’s Constitutional Court – a body to whom many protesters are appealing for the protection of their ‘droits de l’homme’, or human rights.

    On July 24, protests across France intensified in opposition to Macron’s health pass, which many claim is a coercive move to force people into taking the vaccine. There were 160,000 people protesting across the country on Saturday, chanting “liberty, liberty!”

    Signs that read ‘Down with the dictatorship’, in reference to Macron’s measures, were also seen.

    The demonstrations, which have been active since the start of July, are rapidly growing in strength, with the recent protests boasting some 50,000 more people than those held a week ago.

    One of the major protests on Saturday, organized by French nationalist party Les Patriotes, took place at the Trocadero Square in Paris and appealed for more freedom and human rights.

    Similar protests kicked off around Europe on Saturday, namely in Rome and Athens, where people opposed the vaccine.

    According to the official data, 60% of adults in France are now fully vaccinated.

    Well... it might be tied to that Interim Head of State, AKA Kim Goguen, who mentioned that P3 (cf. Fulford) threw the towel... other than that, I have no other frame of reference to rely on for that bit of info. (to be verified, as you wrote )
