This article lists major events that happened in 2018 in France.
The yellow vests protests or yellow jackets protests or Yellow vests Revolution are a series of populist, grassroots weekly protests in France that began on 17 November 2018. At first the protestors advocated economic justice; later they called for institutional political reforms.
Priscillia Ludosky is one of the founders of the yellow vest movement. On 29 May 2018, she published an online petition about the need for 'lower taxes on essential goods, the implementation of the citizens' initiative referendum, lower pensions and salaries of senior officials and elected officials'. In September 2018, she sought more attention for the petition, eventually attracting national attention from Le Parisien.
Jacline Mouraud is a French activist credited as being one of the founders of the yellow vest movement. She rose to national attention as a result of a viral Facebook video she posted in October 2018 about France's proposed eco-tax to which she was opposed. Mouraud quickly found herself on regional and national television debating French MPs. Mouraud slowly became a divisive figure in the movement, being criticized by other yellow vest activists including Priscilla Ludosky and Eric Drouet, and the French media who have accused her of sharing of "fake news".
Marine Charrette-Labadie is a French political activist who was one of eight original spokespeople for the "yellow vests" movement. Her involvement predated the 17 November 2018 protests, when she served as a local organizer in Corrèze, New-Aquitaine in advance for Act I. Charrette-Labadie announced she was retiring from the movement at a national level on 28 November 2018 at a press conference in Brives. She was the sixth of the original eight spokespeople to announce their resignation. Charrette-Labadie continued to participate in the movement at the local level after withdrawing from the national movement.
Laëtitia Dewalle is a yellow vests activist. She has served as a media representative and local organizer in the Val-d'Oise, emerging in the movement in mid-November. She has been active in most of the Acts in the movement. In speaking to the media, she has been consistent in stating that they are biased, and that the movement is non-violent; she points out that violence in the protest marches are due to left and right wing extremists piggyback riding the movement.
Ingrid Levavasseur was an early participant of the Yellow vest movement and quickly emerged as one of its most visible spokespeople. She represented activists from Louviers, Eure, making multiple appearances on various media networks including TF1 and La Chaîne Info (LCI). After initially accepting and then rejecting a columnist position at BFMTV, she lost credibility with many in the movement. Maxime Nicolle would later call her out for being an opportunist.
Women have been involved in the yellow vests movement since its inception. This is a result of women on the whole being more affected by poverty in France than their male counterparts, in part because many are heads-of-household and need to take time off from paid employment to give birth to children. Their role is greater than most past social movements in France because of the economically precarious position that many women in the country find themselves in.
