In France, hundreds of thousands of people flooded the streets Thursday in the latest protests against President Emmanuel Macron’s measure raising the retirement age from 62 to 64. The mobilizations came as France’s top court is expected to rule today on the policy’s constitutionality, after Macron rammed it through by executive fiat. In Paris, protesters stormed the headquarters of luxury group LVMH, demanding France’s wealthiest contribute more to financing the state pension.

Fabien Villedieu: “They are looking for solutions to finance the pension system. There is a very simple solution. It is to take from the pockets of billionaires. We are here at the headquarters of LVMH. This is the seat of Bernard Arnault, who is the richest billionaire of all billionaires in France and in the whole world. If the social security funds are running out, they can come and get money here, among other places.”
