Protesters staged demonstrations across France on Wednesday, disrupting traffic, burning trash cans, and sometimes clashing with police in an attempt to "block Everything" as a form of anger against political classes and plans to cut the budget.
Security forces were deployed to try to lift the blockade as quickly as possible. Dozens of protesters were arrested and clashes broke out with police.
The demonstration comes amid political turmoil two days after parliament toppled Prime Minister Francois Bayrou in a vote of distrust of his plans to tame the country's swelling debt.
On Tuesday, President Emmanuel Macron appointed his fifth prime minister in less than two years, choosing his close ally, Sebastien Lecornu, which sparked the anger of left-wing politicians.
In Paris, firefighters removed burned objects from barricades set up by students to block traffic near high school.

"This is the same problem, this is the same problem, it is Macron who is the problem, not the ministers," said Fred, a representative of the RATP public transport branch of the CGT union, in a protest in Paris.

The movement "Blood Everything - an expression of widespread dissatisfaction due to the absence of centralized leadership and ad hoc organizations by social media - emerged online in May among right-wing groups, according to researchers and officials, but has since been taken over by far left and left groups.
