16\08\2019 France alert

Alert
Around 30 constituency offices for MPs belonging to La République en Marche (LREM) party have been damaged by anti-government protesters and vandals since the start of June. The attacks are in largely in rural areas and are linked to the rising levels of anger over recent trade deals. Cases include a mountain of farm manure that had been dumped outside the office of the MP for Haute Garonne, Monique Iborra, and Romain Grau office bing arsoned while he was inside.

The party’s leader in France’s National Assembly, Gilles le Gendre, suggested it was an indictment of the current state of modern French politics.
