Participants in the march included the Union’s regional and local branches, political parties, national figures, civil society groups, intellectuals, and artists.

The demonstrators denounced rising prices and called for respect for the principles of the revolution and loyalty to the blood of the martyrs. The march was marked by a symbolic stop in front of the headquarters of the former, now-dissolved Constitutional Democratic Rally. “Free Tunisia—thieves out,” “People, rise up against the remnants of the dictatorship,” and “No freedom, no return for the Destour gangs,” chanted the demonstrators.
