'Decisive act': Yellow vests plan Paris sit-in and protest at Chas DeGaulle airport
8 March 2019
Another weekend, another yellow vest protest in France. This weekend the gilets jaunes are promising a "decisive act" that will last three days and also feature a flash protest at Charles De Gaulle airport.
To combat any protest fatigue, organisers have devised original new methods to highlight their anti-government manifesto. This weekend there will be sit-ins and flash protests….
In Paris, rather than the usual Saturday demonstrations, there is a sit-in planned at the Champ de Mars', near the Eiffel Tower throughout the weekend.
The idea is for protesters to invade the park and refuse to budge. A Facebook event has been created to promote this, called "Decisive Act: WE WILL NOT Move!”……
At Charles de Gaulle airport to the north of Paris, yellow vest protesters say they will wander peacefully through Terminal 1 of the airport to protest against the privatization project of ADP (Aéroports de Paris).
According to the Facebook event, it is a question of walking discreetly and without a vest in the terminal, until some music plays at 1pm and they all simultaneously put on their vests…….
