On Saturday, 50 to 60 marches are expected across France, including several rallies in Paris against a bill on the presumed legitimate use of weapons by law enforcement officers. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez announced that around 70,000 police officers and gendarmes will be deployed, against around 146,000 protesters last Saturday according to the authorities, as reported by BFMTV.
Between 30,000 and 60,000 people are expected in Paris this Saturday, 14 November, according to an intelligence memo seen by BFMTV. Three separate mobilisations are due to converge in the capital: one opposes the bill on the presumption of legitimacy of the use of weapons by law enforcement officers, another takes the form of an international march against violence against children, and the Gilets jaunes will gather for the fifth episode of the movement against the cost of living.
Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez announced that around 70,000 police officers and gendarmes would be deployed, the same arrangement as for the previous three Saturdays, a figure he said he wanted to refine. Last Saturday, the protests focused on youth and against the cost of living had brought together around 146,000 people across France according to the authorities, including 46,000 in Paris, a lower level than on previous days.
Protests against the cost of living had brought together 550,000 people across France on 17 October, according to our earlier dispatches. This Saturday comes four weeks later.
