French farmers’ anger remains high, despite Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu’s promise of “emergency legislation before the summer”, and blockades continue on Wednesday, including at Toulouse airport. Tractors started to leave their blockade outside the National Assembly building in Paris in the early hours of Wednesday, after spending 24 hours in the capital. AdvertisementThat is not, however, the end of the protests - as the farmers were planning to leave Paris, around 40 of the colleagues, with 15 tractors, had entered Toulouse on Tuesday night and parked about 100m from the préfecture. It wasn’t the only protest planned for Wednesday morning in the Toulouse region. At 6am, a blockade linked to the agricultural protests was reported on the A64 autoroute near the Pink City.
