"not guilty"

The head banner reads, 'For public services for everyone, everywhere, recruitment, good salaries, not guilty to be ill'. Hundreds of protesters march in Toulouse, France, on May 13, 2025, called by trade unions to protest against the new budget for France in 2026. Workers for public services see the waiting period for illness leave go from one day to three, their pay while on illness leave is cut by 10%, and all their bonuses are suppressed. More than anything, they protest against the shrinking of public services such as education, health, children's protection, and public finances. The 2026 Bayrou budget plans nearly EUR50 billion in cuts to public services, except for the defense budget. The defense budget is the only one to grow in 2026. Protesters are against the defense budget and the cuts. Similar protests take place elsewhere in France. The culture sector is one of the main domains impacted by cuts.

One hundred activists from social centers gather outside the Palace of Justice to wait for the final sentence of the Askatasuna trial and then celebrate the acquittal of the charge of criminal association. In the Askatasuna trial, the most serious charge against the activists, criminal association, is dropped. The judges acquit the 16 defendants of this crime, while 16 receive convictions for lesser offenses. Additionally, ten defendants are found not guilty. The self-managed Askatasuna social center, which has been occupied since 1996, historically organizes large demonstrations in the streets of the subalpine capital, some of which result in riots. From the beginning, the social center aims to establish a strong connection with the surrounding neighborhood by focusing on issues related to the right to housing and work.
