Protesters have set out from southern France inspired by demonstrators in Canada
The Paris police authority has said it has decided to ban a so-called “freedom convoy” of motorists from holding protests in the French capital from 11-14 February.
Protesters had set out from southern France on Wednesday in what they call a freedom convoy that will converge on Paris and Brussels to demand an end to Covid-19 restrictions, inspired by demonstrators who have blocked a Canadian border crossing.
