Sept. 10 (UPI) -- Protestors across France have blocked roads, transit and more as the "Block Everything" movement takes hold in the wake of an ouster of the prime minister and the naming of a new one.
Prime Minister Francois Bayrou resigned Monday after a no-confidence vote in the French parliament. He had served nine months.
President Emmanuel Macron named Armed Forces Minister Sebastien Lecornu, 39, as the next prime minister Tuesday. Lecornu, a conservative protege of Macron, took office Wednesday and promised a "profound break" with past policies.
In the wake of the ouster, French people began protests and blockades throughout the country.
