Protesters hold a banner reading 'Here, Moudenc is programming the destruction of public services'. JL Moudenc is the mayor of Toulouse. As Macron states that France must be put on a 'war economy', French regions, departments, and city councils make drastic cuts in their budgets. Hundreds of people gather first in front of the town hall of Toulouse, the Capitole, to perform a die-in in red and black before gathering with other sectors behind the town hall. They make drastic cuts in all cultural arts, leisure centers, libraries, community youth clubs, and are laying off people. In Toulouse, some libraries, theaters, and youth community centers will close next year. Students and protesters say that instead of increasing military spending, they should preserve culture and social services from the deepening cuts. In Toulouse, France, on March 27, 2025.
