Paris, April 16 (EFE / EPA) .- (Camera: Ian Langsdon) Workers protest in Paris, covering themselves with plastic bags as a symbol of the closure of shops, to express their discontent at being forced to cease their activity for so long as it was considered "non-essential" after the lockdown measures caused by the coronavirus pandemic.FOOTAGE OF THE PROTEST AT THE REPUBLIC SQUARE.
In response to the outbreak of a rapidly spreading COVID-19 virus mutation, over 40 countries have banned flights from the UK. At the same time, the UK government has shut down most of London and South East England in a new round of lockdowns. Over the weekend, rank-and-file Londoners flocked to train and bus stations to get out of town while they still could. But according to Business Insider, members of the monied class didn't have to battle for space on an overhead storage bin. Instead, British high society went to London's private jet terminals to catch charter flights out of the country.
Pro-independence protesters block the roads to Barcelona airport, forcing passengers to finish the trip on foot. The protest comes as Spain's Supreme Court sentenced nine Catalan separatist leaders to between nine and 13 years in jail for sedition over the failed 2017 independence bid. IMAGES
