France welcomes new prime minister with 'block everything' protests

France got a new prime minister Wednesday, welcomed into office by some 175,000 "block everything" protesters across the country, who blocked roads and train stations and lit fires in demonstrations against budget cuts. At least 473 people were arrested, the Interior Ministry told reporters. The protests fell on the first day in office for French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu, the country's fifth in less than two years, although they were scheduled before the previous government collapsed and Lecornu's inauguration was set.
