About the Gilet Jaunes. I happened to be working with the Eurobarometer results (version 91.4, 2019, "Europeans’ attitudes on Trade and EU trade policy") for a piece I'm currently writing since I realized I could use some of the poll's questions as a proxy for basic knowledge of economics, calculating a general score for each European country (28 countries).
