Tens of thousands are expected to take to the street of Paris today to protest against the government’s bill to legalise same-sex marriage and gay adoption.
The parliament are expected to pass the bill on Tuesday. The bill was one of President Hollande’s key manifesto promises.
This latest protest is expected to see between 30,000 to 50,000 protesters converge on the streets of Paris; a similar rally in March saw around 300,000 people attend.
Protesters are angered by the way the government has pushed the bill through parliament, using a fast track procedure, which means the bill has only received 25 hours of debate.
Another protest is planned for May 26th, to demand the bill be withdrawn and a referendum called on same-sex marriage.
