A young woman holds a cardboard sign reading 'All Capitalists Are Bastards'. All trade unions unite, and thousands of people take to the streets in Toulouse, France, on September 10, against Macron's economic policies after a day called 'Bloquons tout' (Block everything). This movement launches at the beginning of the summer on social networks against Macron's policies: downsizing the welfare state to cut taxes for businesses, increasing the Defense budget and Interior Ministry, and his choice of conservative Sebastien Lecornu as the new Prime Minister. His pro-business stance angers French people who blockade everywhere in France on September 10. A gathering and a march are authorized by the Prefect of Occitanie. The Prefect decides to forbid the gathering called by the CGT union and the march one and a half hours before the beginning. Riot police charge and clash violently with peaceful protesters and CGT unionists using tear gas and pepper spray in Toulouse, France, on October 2, 2025.

It launches at the beginning of the summer on social networks against Macron's politics: downsizing the welfare state to cut taxes for businesses, rising the Defense budget and Interior ministry, and his choice of conservative Sebastien Lecornu as the new Prime Minister. His pro-business stance angers French people who blockade everywhere in France on September 10. Riot police receive orders to be without any tolerance towards blockades and use volleys of tear gas canisters. After blockading, people come to protest and scuffle with riot police in Toulouse, France, on September 18, 2025.

A protester stands near graffiti reading 'ACABlant'. Opponents of the planned A69 highway gather in the Tarn department in Maurens-Scopont for a weekend of protests called 'Turboteuf' in the domain of the Maurens-Scopont castle. After protesters try to break into the work site to reach a bridge, riot police and protesters scuffle. Riot police use volleys of tear gas canisters. The decision of the Cour d'Appel Administrative (Administrative Court of Appeal) of Toulouse greenlights the resumption of leveling works on the A69 highway. The Administrative Court of Toulouse decides on February 27 to suspend all works on the A69 project highway between Toulouse and Castres. NGE/Atosca files an appeal against this decision and asks the Court to let the works continue during the time the appeal is judged. Two senators and two MPs from the Tarn department put to vote a retroactive law to authorize the building of the A69. They say they want to bypass the decision of the Administrative Court of Toulouse. Atosca says all leveling works have begun and that more than 70% of highway structures are completed. However, the leveling works and highway structure are not close to the numbers given by Atosca. Moreover, several problems plague the work, such as water evacuation and protection of species. The main association 'La Voie est Libre' (i.e., 'The Way is Free') wants the building of the highway to be stopped until all the justice decisions on the content are given. All expropriations for farmers are not cleared. Opponents of this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be sufficient for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway will cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros without inflation) for 54 kilometers. More than 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural fields will be destroyed. This takes place in Maurens-Scopont, Tarn, France, on July 6, 2025.

Demonstrators hold a banner that reads ''free Ahmed Souab'' while chanting slogans against Tunisian President Kais Saied during a demonstration organized by the family of lawyer and former judge Ahmed Souab, alongside hundreds of civil society activists, representatives of national and human rights organizations, and journalists in Tunis, Tunisia, on April 25, 2025, to protest the detention of Ahmed Souab and to express their support for him. Demonstrators chant iconic slogans from the Tunisian revolution, including ''Labor, Liberty, and Dignity for All,'' while also calling for the fall of President Kais Saied's regime. Ahmed Souab is recently arrested by the police after making critical remarks to the press about the harsh sentences handed down in the so-called ''conspiracy against state security'' case. A detention warrant is issued against him on terrorism charges. Ahmed Souab is part of the legal team representing prominent political figures in the case, who are sentenced in the first instance to prison terms ranging from 13 to 66 years.
