Attacking railroad workers as "privileged," the French government seeks to break labor strength as Margaret Thatcher did in Britain when attacking miners. In response French unions and labor are responding with a rare degree of unity.
There is no denying it: The last few months have been disastrous for the French left. As the gospel of neoliberalism goes up in flames across the Channel, French voters have handed over the republic to one of its true believers. These will be trying times for the French working class, and really anyone concerned with the country's collective well-being. Macron's electoral success does not equate with a broad democratic mandate for his policies.
Hackers targeted Macron's campaign using methods similar to the suspected Russian hacks in the US targeting the Democratic National Committee last year
