A sixth consecutive Saturday of protests by the yellow vests movement is beginning in France. In Paris which has seen violence in recent weekends, some demonstrators gathered Montmartre and in the centre of the city. The anti-government protests started over planned rises on fuel taxes but also focus on wider living standards. This protester called on President Macron to deal with the high cost of living. The government doesn't want to help all its citizens get out of penury, help them live a dignified life, dignified, because the salaries, salaries must be salaries. You can't live on them, stop with your one hundred euros, two hundred euros. It's nothing. It's nothing. The cost of living is way up high. Bring it down so that France can succeed. A tenth person has died linked to the demonstrations after a driver crashed into the back of a lorry at a yellow vest roadblock near the southern city of Perpignan.
法国连续第七个周六的“黄马甲”抗议活动开始了。在最近的周末,巴黎发生了不少暴力活动,游行者聚集在蒙马特尔以及城市中心地区。反政府抗议者以计划汽油税上涨为由发动游行活动,但是他们同样关注的是生活水平的巨大差异。抗议者要求总统马克龙处理生活成本过高的问题。政府并不想帮助所有民众摆脱贫困,或是帮他们过上有尊严的生活,人们的薪资必须是实实在在的薪资。而现在的工资已不足维持生活,一两百欧元的薪资根本微不足道。生活成本现在变得太高,只有下调才能让法国变得强大。由游行导致的第十起死亡事故发生,在法国南部城市佩皮尼昂的黄马甲路障附近,一名司机与一辆货车追尾。
