In Paris on Monday May 1, the procession will set off at 2 p.m. from Place de la République, where we will meet Julien Cholin.
The drones used in several cities, Monday, May 1, will also be deployed in the capital, a first in this context. The unions are expecting a lot of people. A historic mobilization, “by the unity displayed by the unions, since it is the first time in 14 years that they will march side by side for this May 1st”, underlines Julien Cholin, in duplex of the place of the Republic in Paris. The mobilization is intended to be massive, “the CFDT already announces 1.5 million people throughout France, 650,000 according to the authorities who are counting on 80,000 people in Paris”adds the journalist.
“Slippery Slope in Policing Politics”
Authorities “warn against possible overflows, as we saw this morning in Nantes, which justifies, according to several prefects, the use of surveillance drones.” Their use was validated in the morning by the courts, “in Paris and in several cities of France”, specifies Julien Cholin. The CFDT sees no problem there, “if that can make it possible to fight against certain radical groups. The CGT says it is more worried and sees it as a slippery slope in the policy of maintaining order”reports Julien Cholin.
