“Emmanuel Macron takes advantage of inflation to widen wealth gaps”

“Committed personalities, from the world of culture, science, social movements, whether we are anti-capitalists, communists, environmentalists, rebels, socialists, we will march on October 16 in Paris, against the high cost of living and climate inaction. ”, they add.
