Good to see the yellow vests..... 18:19 - Apr 20 with 1191 viewsBanksterDebtSlave

.....expressing their displeasure at corporare french elites raising 1 billion euros from their petty small change for Notre Dame!

"What happened at Notre-Dame is obviously a deplorable tragedy. But nobody died," Levavasseur said. "I've heard someone speaking of national mourning. Are they out of their minds?"

Tristan, a Yellow Vest supporter who declined to give his full name for fear of being identified by police after he was banned from travelling to Paris during weekends to attend demonstrations, prefers to stay away from the polemics.

He made an €80 donation to Notre-Dame — quite a sum for the 29-year-old, who works in construction and does frequent night shifts to put butter on his bread.

"I'm a Catholic, I'm a regular churchgoer and I felt personally touched," he said. "Tears came to my eyes on Monday night. Of course, one can ask why billionaires did not give money before to less important organisations. But who knows if they didn't?

"On the other hand, what really shocked me is Macron saying Notre-Dame would be rebuilt within five years. It's obvious he never held a trowel in his life."

I've yet to see anything about the Catholic Church sticking their hands in their pockets for the reconstruction work.

I hope devout follower Cardinal Mogg is going to be making a donation.

Not their cathedral. Only borrowing it from the French state (who don't even allow them to charge an entrance fee).

All churches in France are owned by the state who let it fall into disrepair over a number of years.

Still don't see why the church can't stick something in the pot though.

It's a bit of a weird criticism isn't it? It just looks like he's looking for something to complain about.
