yellow vests are spreading and we can only hope it happens here, though if it does disney will take it over and re-brand it to make some fat man a lot of money;
We are the Little Folk—we!
Too little to love or to hate.
Leave us alone and you’ll see
How we can drag down the State!
A Pict Song, Rudyard Kipling
Belgium has joined the list of
countries that are rebelling against their elected leadership. Over the
weekend the Belgian government fell over Prime Minister Charles Michel’s trip to Morocco to sign the United Nations Migration Agreement. The agreement made no distinction between
legal and illegal migrants and regarded immigration as a positive
phenomenon. The Belgian people apparently did not agree. Facebook
registered 1,200 Belgians agreeing that the Prime Minister was a traitor. Some
users expressed concern for their children’s futures, noting that
Belgian democracy is dead. Others said they would get yellow vests and
join the protests.
The unrest witnessed in a number of
places is focused on some specific demands but it represents much
broader anger. The French yellow vests initially protested against
proposed increases in fuel taxes that would have affected working people
dependent on transportation disproportionately. But when that demand
was met by the government of President Emmanuel Macron, the
demonstrations continued and even grew, suggesting that the grievances
with the government were far more extensive than the issue of a single
new tax. Perhaps not surprisingly, the French government is seeking for a
scapegoat and is investigating “Russian
interference.” The US State Department inevitably agrees, claiming that
Kremlin directed websites and social media are “amplifying the
conflict.”.......http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=180570
