"Union representatives emerging from the talks said Mr Macron gave them no information about the changes he was planning to announce on Monday evening.
Mr Macron is expected to introduce measures to reduce taxes and increase ordinary people's purchasing power."


Monday night!

Referendums in EU countries have a tendency of being ignored, overruled or "forgotten"
The Netherlands had tree the last decade. We said no tho all. Every-time it got overruled.

I think the options are:

1. Promising new elections ( Buying time )
2. Invent a national disaster natural, biological or 9/11 like
3. War. It may solve the problems as well with Brexit, poland Hungary etc...

Sorry for not being more optimistic.

But TPTB will not let 70 years of planning go without a fight.

2. Invent a national disaster natural, biological or 9/11 like

If that happens...pffffffffffffffftttt... I don't even know how to respond to that...

Let's hope not.

Maybe i was a little harsh, but i really think that there is a major problem.
And whatever he will say tonight, the problems will not go away unless one side ( local people of nations ) or the other side gives in.

Let's hope a peaceful satisfying solution!

Whatever he says, the French know they've been ripped off .

They know he is an EU stooge , and now they want their own divorce from the EU , Frexit .

They know the EU is run from next door in Germany , and they know that mini-Merkel and Macron are in the same team :

he's a traitor and the EU are treasonous foreign infiltrators

France 24 just told the speech is expected at 20:00 hour ( France Time)

That is roughly over half an hour.

My prediction. He will call for calm and the French will riot some more.

He will back down while blaming the Russians and then run away with his tail between his legs.

Thanks for the backstory about his older, pervy wife. That's quite telling, and sick.

Are the French really that "socially forward" or backward or open.

Never waste a good riot.

Interesting speech.

They really panicked and are bending the knee.

Well, not everything, but more then expected.

I Guess they do not want new elections or a civil war.

A haw -he haw ,

his only quest is for you and the people of France . Pull the other one Macron .
He started all threatening , and then said he would pay them off - something like 100 euros each month for every worker from 2019 ? Don't forget a lot of them haven;t got jobs

I would be surprised if this is enough for the protesters.

When he's told such a big fat loaded lie at the end - no I dont think it is enough . He can't say he's pro EU and then not mention it again , Then again if he had mentioned the EU , the French'd be smelling the proverbial directly

I would ask all employers who can, pay an end-of-year bonus to their employees,

How many see this happening?? I am cracking up over here!

If I owned a business in France, I'd tell Macron to go get F*&^ed and come up with some real policy. Not this socialist crap that is putting his country in the crapper already.

I just watched the speech. Milquetoast Macron.

God bless the people of France in doing what you need to do to solidify your sovereignty as a country. They've been hemorrhaging from the inside for a while now.

French President Emanuel Macron, his political career in peril and his country engulfed in increasingly violent protests, pleaded with the country's employers Monday to give their workers a bonus and also promised reduction of taxes to restore order after demonstrations have deeply shaken the nation in the past month.

My guess is he is going to stick his other foot in his mouth. I can't believe he put the new gas tax off for just 6 months. He should have said sorry and this isn't going to happen .......the people have spoken.

What is wrong with the posters here, you’re deluding yourselves

This French protest movement is NOT about the EU

It’s against a president the people perceive is for the rich

The president then announced that the “minimal wages will be … increased by €100 ($113) per month” starting in May 2019. He also pledged to cancel taxes on overtime labor and introduce special tax exemptions for people earning less than €2,000 ($2,270) per month.

Macron, who is often criticized for allegedly only serving the interests of the rich in France, also announced that he ordered the prime minister to develop proposals that would allow “enterprises and the richest members of our society to contribute” to the program of the national economy support, yet he refused to reinforce the so-called “wealth tax.”

Macron scrapped the Solidarity Tax on Wealth (ISF) that forced all French households with assets of over €1.3 million ($1.48mn) to pay an additional percentage in 2017, provoking a wave of criticism from the public and the opposition politicians. French MP and the left-wing ‘Unbowed France’ Party leader, Jean-Luc Melenchon dubbed Macron a “President for the Rich.” In his Monday, speech, Macron still defended his stance on the issue by saying that the wealth tax “did not
