I’m sure the Police are happy to be meeting less and less violent resistance.

No denying the evidence of MH-17, the White Helmets and lots more, but if you want to bow out, that’s fine(and sensible).  
You’re earlier comments on the French and pension reforms is correct i think. If this present situation doesn’t do it, that’ll have them in full revolt. Shame our citizens are not more like them.

This is in London today so I’m sure it’s all over the BBC already.

Nothing in the guardian(app) on yellow vests or giblets jaunes(for 2 weeks).  
Our media are like a little child, that covers their eyes and thinks no one can see them.

Funny. RT are reporting on it so maybe it’s all being staged. In London, Cardiff, Manchester, Toulon, Paris, Bordeaux, Rouen etc.  
Barry will believe it when they’re on his lawn.
