'Yellow vests': opposition urges cancellation of tax increases France's main opposition parties are calling on the government to suspend tax increase planned for the beginning of next year. "There must be a moratorium on taxes before any discussion" says Olivier Faure, head of France's Socialist Party. "The time for debate is over," says Republican party head Laurent Wauquiez. Both talked to journalists on Monday after crisis meetings with Prime minister Edouard Philippe following the 'yellow vest" riots. SOUNDBITES
