France pension chaos: Protesters storm Blackrock building in Paris with firecrackers. Dozens of trade unionists railing against French President Emmanuel Macron’s pension overhaul briefly invaded the central Paris building in which U.S.-based investment firm BlackRock has an office, chanting slogans and setting off firecrackers. The union action in the historical Centorial building near Paris’ Grand Boulevards area, targetted BlackRock because of its private pension fund activity, protester Françoise Onic, 51, told Reuters. “The government wants to throw away pensions, it wants to force people to fund their own retirement with private pension funds, but what we know is that only the rich will be able to benefit from such a setup,” Onic, a school teacher, added.

Protesters in France have become increasingly angry about proposed changes to the country’s pension system, and tension came to a head on Thursday when demonstrators stormed the headquarters of Blackrock in Paris. Protesters hurled firecrackers and spray-painted the office building, indicating their discontent with the investment giant’s perceived role in supporting the pension reform.
The demonstration began peacefully, with protesters carrying signs and chanting slogans outside the Blackrock building. However, shortly after, a group of protestors shattered the building’s windows and set off several firecrackers, prompting a heavy police response. The incident follows weeks of nationwide protests and strikes in France, as workers voice their opposition to the government’s plan to overhaul the pension system.
The French government aims to introduce a universal pension system, which would replace the country’s existing system of individual schemes with a single plan. The proposal has sparked widespread uproar, with protesters arguing that the changes would lead to the dismantling of France’s welfare state and make it harder for younger people to access a comfortable retirement.
Critics of the plan argue that the universal pension system would create winners and losers, with some workers seeing their retirement age increase, and others receiving less generous pension payments. Even President Emmanuel Macron attempted to calm the unrest, stating in a television interview that he would be willing to compromise on certain aspects of the proposal.
Despite these assurances, however, protests continue to rock France, with unions planning a major strike on January 24. The ongoing unrest serves as a powerful reminder of the passion that many French citizens hold for their social welfare programs, as well as the widespread anger at perceived attacks on these programs. Amid the turmoil, organizations like Blackrock find themselves in the crosshairs of a heated political debate, further underscoring the growing divide between the nation’s working class and the corporate and political elites.

Can't understand a word of it but you people have guts! Salut!!
Those are certainly more than firecrackers, buddy.
It's not about pensions. It's about the state of the country and they want this globalist take over to stop. The french have figured it out.
Saying the protests are solely about pension reform is like saying the anti lockdown protests were only anti vaxxers..
Like how dumb do the media think ppl are..
It's obvious the media are spinning this
I really hope they get all the evidence they need before they burn it down until the whole world what they're up to blackrocks a piece of s***
Seems like Radicals are everywhere. What is the Bistro owner supposed to do say no you can't come here? Destroying OTHERS property is terrorism not protesting.
Dont forget the parent Company of Blackrock is QUANT the company that owns many parasites this snake has many heads.
Can someone please translate. I would love to know what they are singing.
Felicitaciones al pueblo francés

Did Angela get to the 23rd floor to code signing machine during the distraction?
small gov, low tax, free market for all, easy small businesses – this is capitalism. it is long time gone. what we have now is corporation-ism or such mixed with socialism (gives tools for gov to do all that evil). however it doesn't really matter how we call what is out there, it is wrong and we need to unite and fight it all together. we can discuss definitions later.
Absolutely based. I'm taking notes rn.
Thank you to the FRENCH! I’d like to see us do more of this in the USA! I think a lot of us may be sick and weak over the food system here! I’ve had fatigue now for many years.
Blackrock relocates to London
Unity for all
First Credit Suisse, now BlackRock, soon Vanquard…the head is coming apart. The whole thing is about private pensions btw, not about the age of retirement.
Aiming the right target.
