		</div><p>Yellow vest protesters and political rivals have said a sweeping “letter to the French” from President Emmanuel Macron does not go far enough to quell national anger at his policies.</p>
<p>Mr Macron’s letter explains how he is addressing the movement’s concerns through a “grand debate” in local meetings around the country starting on Tuesday.</p>
<p>The debate will focus on taxes, public services, climate change and democracy.</p>

<p>Yellow vest representative Jeremy Clement told BFM television that the letter “settles part of the problem” but does not go far enough to address sinking purchasing power.</p>
<p>Protester Jerome Rodrigues told CNews television that Mr Macron had failed to recognise “the urgency” of concerns of low-income workers and retirees.</p>
<p>Others criticised Mr Macron for ruling out a restoration of France’s wealth tax. Opposition MPs have also attacked the letter.</p>
