emmanuel macron needs to reinvent himself. going to be a very tough task because the image of emmanuel macron is clearly damaged by this situation, by this amazing crisis that we have seen in france in more than three weeks. >> help our viewers understand the composition of the protests that we're seeing. again, these yell yow vests and they're required, french people to keep them within their cars in the event of an emergency, the yellow vests represent this movement and bruno what we're seeing, it seems to be the far right getting involved, far left getting involved, working class people getting involved, talking about economic, talking about social issues, help us to understand the composition. >> the composition is probably far left than far right but not only. not only. you need to go back to the first round of the presidential election if you want to understand what is going on. just remember on the first round of the presidential election, the far left got 20, le pen got 21, so 41% of the french vote for extreme choices

thank you very much forjoining us, describing in your view what the situation was that emmanuel macron came back to from the g20 in argentina? it seems of writing and the most extreme france has known since the right gets of 2005 where the country did end up imposing a state of emergency. you cannot call it seems of war but certainly urban devastation in some of the smartest parts of paris and the symbolism was important, the famous landmarks and so important, the famous landmarks and so it was very dramatic what was happening last night. in the aftermath has left a lot of people wondering how this country is going to pick itself up after this, i think it is the worst crisis that emmanuel macron has faced since he became president. has serious is it for his presidency quizzically ——? he was elected to do things that we re he was elected to do things that were not popular and some of them have been difficult and he had a union led protest so he has carved out and away an image of a leader who does not give into the street but i think what is so different about these is that has noth

the menu macron --emmanuel macron proposed raising the minimum wage by 100 euros a month and scrapping a solidarity tax for pensioners. he said that violence would not be tolerated but in a rare admission he indicated that he might be partially responsible for the anger that has been demonstrated on the streets. emmanuel macron said that he realized that he may have hurt some people by seeming to not care about their problems. >> 40 years of unease of on workers, of territories, of villages where public services are being reduced. they had the impression of not being heard. of not being able to follow the deep changes in our society. in the last 1.5 years, we have not been able to respond to it as we should have. i assume our responsibility in this. brent: i am joined by luke andre. -- luc andre. also, in paris, lisa louis. lisa, let me start with you. whatat have been the reactioiono emmanuel m macron's spepeech? lisa: somome have been saying tt it is a good start. we are happy that hehe has boosd ththe minimum wage. we arere happy about the changen tone. he w was a lot morore modest

demonstrators also scrawled anti— emmanuel macron graffiti. at the 620 in argentina, the french president condemned the violence, much of which, the authorities believed, was caused by extremists from both the left and right. translation: what happened today in paris has nothing to do with the peaceful expression of legitimate angen peaceful expression of legitimate anger. no cause justifies authorities attacked, businesses plundered or that passers—by are threatened or that the arc de triomphe is defiled. what began as few weeks ago was a peaceful protest by the yellow vests has now expanded into a broader display of anti—government anger. emmanuel macron will convene an urgent meeting with the prime minister and other senior officials to address the situation. but on the ground in paris, the cleanup has already begun. time for many to survey the damage and understand how a peaceful march sets a day of destruction for the city of light. france president emmanuel macron says his fuel policies are needed to combat global warming, a subject

manus: theresa may has warned emmanuel macron and angela merkel that the brexit deal is dead unless they compromise. that's after the european leaders rebuffed her request for help. meanwhile, the idea of a second referendum is being privately discussed with reddish ministers raising unprompted. even theresa may has floated it as a possible outcome. director and cio is here. i've not given you a difficult job than. by the way, we put this into the dtv library, not that anyone needs to understand the scale, but we have it in the dtv library -- gtd library. you've said a soft brexit is your preferred probability outcome, even after last week? guest: that is correct. but wewer than before, need to keep in mind any time eu is involved in negotiations, there's a tendency to go down the wire. it's like a last-minute softening of conditioning's by the eu is still possible. there are other options on the table. and then the second referendum, which is growing. manus: would a second referendum add additional market risk to sterling? would it add cross asset risk because, again, the polls are so u

how far would emmanuel macron go, do you think? he already backed down. he already cancelled the taxes he wanted to create, so there is nothing else to do on this field. is he going to reshuffle the government, to change the prime minister? it would not be enough to calm the crowd. the question now is personal, and all the problem is there. it is the third phase of the movement. there was a social phase, a political phase, and now it is an institutional phase. the president himself has become the problem. many people are pointing out that a lot of these problems that are being put on emmanuel macron's shoulders, macron resign is what protesters are saying, they were already simmering away before he came to power.m saying, they were already simmering away before he came to power. it is true, but now we have experienced his first year of mandate. he has only two choices, one choice would be to deny himself, his personality, a lot of people see him as a very arrogant character. is he going to show that he can be more humble and less disdainful to the people?

even thatis government -- emmanuel macron. even that is not clear, whether those who represent the yellow jacket movement will get to the meeting. some have said they are not going, they are receiving death threats are. death threats on the basis that they shouldn't kowtow or meet with government, that more pressure has to be put on the macron government in the short term before any dialogue is opened up. le figaro has an editorial on the front page talking about a democratic crisis, the fact we have seen protests as opposed to an narrative for a conversation between the two parties. it does look like the interior minister may be thrown under the bus by the macron government, someone under the bus by the macron government, someone who has had a longer held stance of law and order, maybe a more experienced civil servant will take over. macron needs to do something because his opinion polling is awful at the moment. to do something because his opinion polling is awful at the momentm is. i would like to say it is at trumpian leve

emmanuel macron will address them today. the president has seen his approval ratings collapse as the so-called yellow vest demonstrations continue. critics say he needs a grand gesture to stick to the substance of his mandate and convince skeptical opponents. our reporter joins us from paris. great to see you. what can emmanuel macron offer the french tonight to ease the tensions? he has already you turned on the fuel tax. maria: what we are seeing now is the fourth week of protests. the fuel tax has been scrapped. we hear from the french government there will be no more taxes in 20 19, but really, this has escalated into something way bigger. it is about emmanuel macron. it is about his policies. tonight, a lot of people in france will be waiting to hear the french president just apologize or say, look, i see what you're doing. i understand what's going on. perhaps it is a mistake i should not have made. in terms of the politics, we could see perhaps in tax deductions, we could see matches aimed at the minimum wage. at this

more precisely, against emmanuel macron. the yellow vests have very different demands, it goes from childcare to a cap on incomes, many different things, some very extreme left, some are extreme right. it is hard to pin down exactly who they are. that makes it particularly difficult for the french government to negotiate with them, or to reach out and to give in to their demands. we are also hearing reports on social media that these kind of protests are spilling out into other countries across europe. i think looking at the wider picture in france for now, emmanuel macron must be looking down on these protesters and thinking, i've got a big problem here, there's a lot of dissatisfaction with my government. are they right, though, to be dissatisfied? absolutely, it certainly is a big problem for him. he was overwhelmed by the protests. he was overwhelmed by the protests. he did not see it coming, actually. he did not see it coming, actually. he has been silent the whole week, he even said last night to one of his collaborato

emmanuel macron has a very serious political problem. he still has almost three years to go in his mandate, but he can't do anything any more. his reform programme will be put on hold, very likely, and he will express himself this monday on television nationwide, to be french, and to give an explanation of what is going on and maybe propose some concessions to the yellow vests. stefa n d e stefan de vries speaking to me earlier. scientists and delegates at a un climate conference in poland have expressed alarm, after it failed to incorporate a key scientific report. the ipcc report on the impact of a 1.5 degree temperature rise was released in october and won praise from politicians around the world. the document said the world was completely off track. the us, russia and saudi arabia objected to the conference welcoming the report. china has warned canada that there will be severe consequences if it doesn't release huawei's chief financial officer meng wanzhou. ms meng was arrested in vancouver a week ago and faces extradition to the un

president emmanuel macron wanted to come to reform. it was not done by francois hollande or czar cok nicolas sa jacques chirac. then he backed up several times he created what is called the jupiter effect. but people in the streets wanted him to be with them, he did not do that and when he tried it was not sometimes the best way to do it. he's paying for his communication mistake. he's paying for his image of a person who wants to do something but doesn't understand what's happening in the streets for people who are suffering and christiane, the middle-class is suffering. the democracy in many countries is upset. that's what's happening in france. there's a clash of two societies that the moment and in france it's not donald trump but it's almost a revolution. >> these are incredibly apocalyptic views and very strange because president emmanuel macron, he said to me when i got his first interview after he was elected, he said i have to work to reform this country for my people. i have 10% unemployment, i have 25% unemployment amongst y

emmanuel macron's personality was part of this problem. throughout the week i've heard people saying he's the president of the rich and he's arrogant. he's too detached from our needs. he doesn't even understand what it's like to live on 1200 euros a month. macron was almost apologetic when he spoke about the fact that his remarks may have hurt some voters, that some voters may believe they're not his priority, but he said they are mistaken. they are the reason why he fought so hard to be where he is today and the reason why he's fighting so hard to implement much-needed reforms here in this country. >> annelise borgess, this is a complicated issue. thank you. >>> across the english channel, london is struggling with a popular uprising of its own: brexit. the process of leaving the european union continues to be a hotly contested issue, so much so that theresa may says she's postponing a major vote on britain's withdrawal. according to may, she would have lost it. for more of what's happening, i'm joined by foreign correspondent matt bradl

the test for emmanuel macron today is to show humility and concern. economic concessions alone may not work. nt, many say,rs is a sense that the president values them. what he offered today were four concessions -- a rise in the minimum wage, tax-free over time and bonuses, and a freeze in pension taxes.' what he d't say was sorry. pres. macron: i know i have heard some of you -- y hurt some of with my remarks. i want to be clear with you -- if i sought to shake up the system, it is because i want to serve my country which i love. cy: his concessions were than anyone could have imagined wast a few weeks ago, but for some protesters, i't enough. >> he tried to make us believe he regrets his behavior, but he emdn't respond to ourds, and tonight we have lost trust. it feels like we're talking to a brick wall. frankly, we are frustrated. lucy: protters here are already booking a bus back to paris on saturday for act five of the weekly denstrations there. presidentac mron told them today that france would find a solution together, but for many, this is wha

emmanuel macron is facing a couple of problems tonight. 0ne emmanuel macron is facing a couple of problems tonight. one is that if you tackle this process a few weeks ago, he might have got away with simply cancelling the rise in fuel taxes, the trouble is since then the movement has grown and we that the movement's demands, and the second problem he faces is that it is also a very diverse movement. people have joined it bringing all sorts of grievances, so satisfying all of them is going to be very difficult, and a government spokesman today said he thought it might be an almost made—to—measure solution. so president macron‘s speech tomorrow is going to have to do a number of things, andi is going to have to do a number of things, and i think first and foremost is going to want to convince people that is really listening, that france's democratically—elected leaders feel responsible to those who are protesting and really he what they are trying to say, and that is going to mean the natural concessions, whether it is bonuses for low paid workers or lifting taxes. the problem he's g

the french president, emmanuel macron, will meet his prime minister and other senior officials today to discuss the violent protests that took place in paris. at least 110 people were injured, and more than 270 were arrested when anti—government protestors burned cars, vandalised buildings and clashed with riot police. bill hayton reports. parisiens are used to demonstrations, but this violence was of an intensity rarely seen in the french capital. smoke from torched cars mixed with water cannon and tear gas deployed by riot police. one protester was left in a critical condition as these metal gates were ripped down. demonstrators also scrawled anti—macron graffiti on structures, including the arc de triomphe. at the 620 in argentina, the french president condemned the violence, much of which, the authorities believe, was caused by extremists from both the left and right. translation: what happened today in paris has nothing to do with the peaceful expression of a legitimate anger. no cause justifies that authorities attacked, that businesses are plundered, that passers—by orjo

translation: emmanuel macron has to step down. the parliament should be dissolved and we have to return to better foundations. everything should be fair, because we're fed up. as the morning wore on, it was clear that so far, the government's worst fears had not been realised. the prime minister, edouard philippe, appeared on television to announce there'd been more than 200 arrests, and to emphasise again the exceptional scale of the police operation that's been mounted, both in paris and across the country. a combination of police saturation on the ground, smaller—than—expected numbers of protesters, the government is beginning to hope that the moment of peak danger is passing. let's speak now to the daily telegraph columnist, anne—elisabeth moutet. she joins me via webcam from her apartment in paris, which i understand is near to where the protest have been taking place? they are literally under my window is just they are literally under my window isjust behind here. earlier in the flat around half an hour ago, we had to

what can emmanuel macron do to get this to settle down? we have had people die as a consequence of the demonstrations. i don't think we wa nt to demonstrations. i don't think we want to exaggerate the violence which was very intense in paris but the numbers have been small in terms of people who died during this but to put it in perspective, he has two issues, one is the security situation and there was some talk of various options being imposing a state of emergency which france had done during the terrorist attacks so that would not be a complete novelty for france but in a way that is more difficult, how does he answer this? on the one hand he wants to remain the leader and does not want to give in and continue to do the right thing for france and trying to make it easierfor people thing for france and trying to make it easier for people to create businesses and jobs and in a way modernise the welfare state to make it more flexible but at the same time he has to give some kind of sign that he's not completely indifferent in polls backed

the french president, emmanuel macron, will meet his prime minister and other senior officials today to discuss the violent protests this weekend in paris. this morning he visited the arc de triomphe which was targetted by protesters. at least 110 people were injured, and more than 270 were arrested, when anti—government protestors burned cars, vandalised buildings and clashed with riot police. bill hayton reports. parisiens are used to demonstrations, but this violence was of an intensity rarely seen in the french capital. smoke from torched cars mixed with water cannon and tear gas deployed by riot police. one protester was left in a critical condition as these metal gates were ripped down. demonstrators also scrawled anti—macron graffiti on structures, including the arc de triomphe. at the g20 in argentina, the french president condemned the violence, much of which, the authorities believe, was caused by extremists from both the left and right. translation: what happened today in paris has nothing to do with the peaceful expression of a legitimate anger. no cause justifies tha

while the gunman remains at large, french president emmanuel macron has attended an emergency session with security staff in paris. welcome to bbc world news. about five hours ago, a gunman opened fire on a christmas market in strasbourg. and, according to the mayor of the city, four people have been killed, several others injured. the attack took place in the city centre. police say they have exchanged fire with the attacker, who was known to the security forces. the city, which is home to the european parliament, has been placed on lockdown, although meps and journalists have now been told they can leave. officials said he'd been previously identified as a national security risk. local media are reporting that police raided the suspect‘s home on tuesday morning, but he managed to avoid arrest. we will have more live from strasbourg. first, with an update, lucy williamson reports from paris. france tonight relived the terror of another attack. in the narrow streets around strasbourg's christmas market, riot police hunted a gunman who opened fire on the crowds here. his gunshots ini

emmanuel macron government for a crisis meeting today. one option on the table, a state of emergency. the president was booed as he arrived to thank the firemen on duty for the protests. fresh from the battles of the 620 protests. fresh from the battles of the g20 summit in argentina, he is facing even tougher diplomacy at home. the most popular demand at protest sites round country — macron resign. they are cleaning off the graffiti now, but the discontent sparked by this movement is harder to wipe away. president macron has cast himself as an economic reformer who stands firm against protestors, but when do protestors simply become the french people? jean will be 70 this month but he was at the protest here last night too. translation: if the protest had gone very calmly, macron would have come back from argentina and said "it's all fine, it will die down, i'll stick to my position and i won't change anything." it's sad to say but it's the reality. among the targets last night was yasmin‘s car. she's not a government representative,

emmanuel macron. let's turn to the 620 in argentina now, where the leaders have been speaking as the summit closes. the final communique has been issued and, perhaps not unexpectedly, the document is a bit of a compromise. on climate change, all of the members agreed to implement the paris agreement — apart that is from the us, which reiterated its decision to withdraw from it. there was an agreement to reform the world trade organization, but there was no promise to fight protectionism. it might have been hard to agree that, given the current trade war between the us and china. donald trump and xi jinping spent 2.5 hours locked in talks. they ended a little while ago, but without any comment from either side. this was what he said as the meeting started. we will be discussing trade and i think at some point we are going to end up doing something which is greater china and went the united states and i love very much forward to the dinner, i look very much forward to the discussion and discussions af

emmanuel macron was the economy minister who increase to that. with little consultation we are being told with the japanese and with nissan. when they were caught offguard by the arrest of carlos ghosn, it is a bit of a comeuppance if you will. shery: we heard last week carlos ghosn was denying any wrongdoing . we have more updates on his legal fate? his detention has been extended as of friday for another 10 days, so we are doing the math until december 10. prosecutors are weighing the evidence and could as well in the japanese legal system charge him or arrest him again and charge him with another crime. that would allow prosecutors to extend his detention even further. as it stands now, prosecutors would have until december 10 to indict him. given my knowledge of the japanese legal system, it is a foregone conclusion they will charge him. where we go from there is he and aguess, but former director on the nissan board remain in detention in tokyo. shery: thank you so much for that, stephen engle. the latest on nissan. the markets that are open

dan, the thing that's strike to go me, emmanuel macron did not run on higher fuel taxes, he thought the need to impose them in the name of climate change and started with rural protests from people who rely on gasoline to get to work and the -- go buy groceries. >> an amazing event and i think it really is a blow to the credibility of shall we call it the climate movement not just in france but everywhere, the press constantly run fear-mongering stories about future of the climate. emmanuel macron actually decided to do something about it, the idea is you have to pay to mitigate climate so he imposes tax on gasoline fuel in france and french people who drive their cars all of the time and we know fuel is expensive, wait a minute, we are paying higher taxes to prevent hurricanes, polar icecaps or something like that, this strikes the average person as nuts and so that has always been the dilemma at the center of a lot of the climate change proposal when they are proposing economic policies on people would there ever be pushback, guess what, there is pushback. paul: we should say, mary, v
