French protest over Macron forcing through pension reform

Description

People took to the streets across France on Saturday after President Emmanuel Macron imposed an unpopular pension overhaul without a parliament vote. Macron's government on Thursday invoked a controversial executive power to force through the bill by decree, which is legal according to the constitution. The move has caused outrage among the political class as well as angry protests on the streets.
