A week before the decisive second round in France’s presidential election,
thousands of people took part in the traditional May Day rally in central
Paris on Monday (May 1).

The demonstration was mostly peaceful, but some protesters, many of whom were
masked, clashed with police along the four kilometre route.

France goes to the polls on Sunday (May 7) to choose its next president and
many of the banners and posters were related to the election.
