O primeiro-ministro da Espanha, Pedro Sanchéz, foi outro a usar as redes sociais para exaltar a vitória de Lula sobre a extrema-direita.

“Grande vitória de Lula! O que aconteceu no Brasil acontecerá na Espanha. A virada do progressismo global acaba de começar”.

Protest leaders urge French pupils to keep barricading their schools

Activists say struggle must go on until their ‘maximum’ demands are met over teacher shortages and building repairs

French children should continue to barricade their schools and take part in street protests, a student union said on Monday after the government announced a package of education measures to try to stem the crisis.

“Today we’re at the negotiating table, we’re able to negotiate with the government,” Pierre Sourzat of Les Lycéens told France Info television. “We’re in a power struggle and we still need to call for continued mobilisation to meet a maximum of our demands.”

France will lurch from crisis to crisis until it confronts its retirement timebomb | Letter

Amid widespread protests, Muriel E Cockcroft has sympathy for French youth but fears how much steam will be let out at the next convulsion

I’m writing in response to your editorial (The Guardian view on France’s protests: a polarised country is in a perilous political moment, 19 October). While the focus is on Emmanuel Macron, let us not forget the hierarchical structure of French administration, from mayors to MPs to senators to prefects and heads of region. All are part of the government, but few stood up to bring leaky school roofs and missing teachers to national consciousness. I deplore the senseless destruction of shops and state buildings. But I also deplore the fact that students had to protest to be heard. In the many administrative tiers of this highly hierarchical country, no one acted and inertia prevailed.

Centrally, the government is financially challenged but refuses to acknowledge that having a huge deficit, an ageing population and a low retirement age are perhaps connected. Modest attempts to increase the retirement age also provoked violent protests. Financial tools for individual retirement remain complex and restricted. Thus, this sclerotic system presses on until the next crisis.

Journey to ground zero of the unrest in France

A drug-selling spot in Bobigny, a 'banlieue' north of Paris.

Moktar, 21, pulls up his neck gaiter, tightens the hood of his puffer jacket and steps out of the house in the late afternoon, dressed in immaculate black from head to toe. Behind the little mustache and the thick-lensed glasses with gold-rimmed temples, he smiles — a third-year college student from a very modest Tunisian family. Friendly, sharp, with an unusually political sense for his age and skin toughened by his surroundings, Moktar grew up in one of the poorest buildings in the L’Abreuvoir neighborhood in Bobigny (population 48,873), right opposite one of the drug-dealing hotspots where traffickers, police, customers, and addicts come and go all day. “Ballon here,” reads graffiti on the wall, advertising the nitrous oxide gas sold for inhalation.

La rabia de las revueltas francesas por acabar con el malestar social

Viendo lo que está ocurriendo en Francia, me viene a la memoria la célebre frase “Un fantasma recorre Europa” con la que se inicia el preámbulo del Manifiesto Comunista escrito por Karl Marx y Friedrich Engels, publicado por primera vez el 21 de febrero de 1848, en vísperas de las revoluciones liberales y obreras que se produjeron ese año en Francia y otros países europeos. Marx y Engels utilizaron la metáfora del fantasma para describir el miedo y la inquietud que sentían las clases e instituciones conservadoras de la época ante la incipiente lucha de clases entre trabajadores y empresarios dentro del naciente capitalismo.

Could Europe’s autumn of discontent threaten the survival of the EU? | Catherine De Vries

Anger on the streets could increasingly turn against the EU itself if it can’t show why cooperation makes people’s lives better

Europe is living through an autumn of unusual discontent. What protesters from Paris to Milan to Madrid share is a deepening anxiety about the future and a growing anger at the gap between what they expect from their governments and what they feel governments are delivering, whether the issue is unaffordable housing, stagnant wages, the spiralling cost of living or failing schools.

The electoral consequences of the failure to get a grip on this public anger are already with us. Spain goes to the polls next month in a snap election called after parliament voted down key housing reforms. France begins the process of electing a new president in April, while Poland, Italy and a string of smaller states will vote before the end of 2027. The stakes could not be higher.
