Les “gilets jaunes”, yellow vests, protesters have started to entered the Saturday outdoor market, in what is normally a tranquil French town, Fontenay Le Comte. This is a part of a numerous series of protests, demonstrations and roadblocks across France; and bystanders. The protesters are campaigning against a fuel tax hike and related taxes and economic issues that are impoverishing or causing difficulties for people in the lower and middling economic bracket.
