“We want to turn this country upside down, and to do so we need everyone's participation. For us, social revolt means that none of us should turn a blind eye to injustice. On the contrary, we must spread the idea that my problem is everyone's problem and that only by working together can we change this situation. It is a day of mobilisation the likes of which we have not seen in a long time. Today marks the beginning of a process of mobilisation to turn this country upside down [...] It seems clear to me that there has been an explicit attempt to undermine this right. Among other things, a decree is being debated in Parliament, known as the security decree, and we are calling for it to be withdrawn, as it seeks to make strikes, roadblocks and the occupation of factories when they close a criminal offence. It is clear that we are facing a serious attempt at an authoritarian turn that calls into question the freedom to exist and the freedom of individuals.”
