⚡️🇫🇷 WATCH - Protesters in Gap, in the French Alps, set fire to a large effigy of Emmanuel Macron and danced in a circle around it during the third weekend of France’s cost-of-living protests.

A sign on the cart reads “Repose pas en paix” (“Do not rest in peace”).

Because of the violent police crackdown nationwide turnout fell to about 320,000, according to the Interior Ministry, down from 410,000 on Oct. 24 and 550,000 on Oct. 17.

Saturday’s protests were calmer than the previous weekends, though Molotov cocktails were thrown at police in Paris.
