Around the country, the ministry estimated that it was up from last week — at 32,300, compared with 28,600.
The movement, which began November 17 last year, tapped into widespread discontent with high taxes and diminishing living standards in working class provinces — and anger at Macron, seen as too friendly with the rich and powerful and out of touch with French concerns. A defiant Macron promised a crackdown on troublemakers that "want to destroy the republic, at the risk of killing people."
The Interior Ministry said Macron has requested that Prime Minister Edouard Philippe and Castaner meet Sunday to come up with a response to the violence.

MJ’s kids are considering suing the accusers from Leaving NeverlandFollowing the airing of the explosive documentary Leaving Neverland, Michael Jackson’s kids — Prince, Paris and Prince Michael Jackson II, aka “Blanket” — are considering filing a lawsuit against alleged sexual abuse victims Wade Robson and James Safechuck. I don’t blame them. They were why I didn’t like the thought of the doco. Was always going to hurt them. They don’t deserve that they already lost their dad. Are you guys done with milking Michael Jackson stories yet? He was a filthy rock spider that abused boys, and some paedophile sympathizer says 'I don't blame the offspring for wanting to sue the very children their father abused, because their abusing father already died' are you serious. What's wrong with people?!

Politicians ‘get a raw deal’ when they switch policy position: Tognini | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Gemma Tognini says politicians ‘get a raw deal’ when they switch positions on an issue or policy. \n\nFormer prime minister Tony Abbott has backed down on his calls for Australia to pull out of the Paris climate deal, saying the government no longer has an ‘emissions obsession’.\n\nMs Tognini says changing stance on an issue like climate can seem ‘like a sign of weakness, especially considering the seat of Warringah’. \n\nMr Abbott will be challenged by independent candidate Zali Stegall in the upcoming federal election, with the former Olympian focussing on climate change as one of her main policy platforms. SharriMarkson TonyAbbottMHR I hope you mean that trolls not people with an opinion will be blocked.

Barnaby Joyce is 'cunning' and Australian's 'shouldn't be fooled': Conroy | Sky News AustraliaFULL INTERVIEW: Former Labor minister Stephen Conroy has described Barnaby Joyce as 'cunning' and a 'retail politician' after the former Nationals leader.\n\nIt comes after Mr Joyce referred to himself as the 'elected deputy prime minister', saying he would feel ‘no guilt’ about taking over the leadership position if it became vacated.\n\nMr Conroy says the former deputy prime minster 'isn't just sabotaging the Coalition', he's also compromising their 'attempts to present a united front' in the lead up to the federal election in May.\n\nHe says people shouldn't be fooled by Mr Joyce 'hiding behind' the excuse of coal-fired power, likening the stoush to Tony Abbott helping to bring down Malcolm Turnbull with talks of the Paris Agreement.\n\n\nImage: News Corp Australia Shagger, legend. I think Barnaby knows his days in parliament are coming to an end so he wants to cause as much havoc and chaos before he departs after the election.
