A meeting scheduled for take stock of the organization of the Maraichin Spring which will last three days at Rochénard and should bring together thousands of people.
Thousands of people expected
Julien Le Guet, spokesperson for Bassines non merci, explains that he notably tried to discuss the prefectural decrees which prohibit any demonstration in six municipalities around La Rochénard, and which also prohibit convoys of agricultural machinery, while a convoy of tractors is to launch the demonstration. The prefecture refers “radical evolution” of the movement, one more provocation for the activists who claim to organize a festive and militant mobilization.
A meeting that did not end well, in an already tense context. This weekend, the father of Julien Le Guet discovered a video surveillance camera in front of his home, where the meetings of the collective are held. It was installed by the National Police and deteriorated the dialogue a little more. A complaint must be filed this Wednesday by Christian Le Guet.
