Hundreds of protesters continued to demonstrate on 6 June against a new income tax law despite Prime Minister Hani al-Mulki’s resignation on 4 June, although turnout has fallen from a peak of around 4,000 protesters on 3 June. The protests, the most significant in the Kingdom since 2012, began on 30 May when dozens of trade unions called a general strike, eight days after the Cabinet approved tax rises on most workers and economic sectors. The protests have mostly taken place at Amman’s 4th Circle roundabout, which is near the Prime Minister’s Office, but have also occurred in other major cities, including Irbid and Karak. The King appointed former Education Minister Omar al-Razzaz to succeed al-Mulki and urged unions and parties to engage in talks with the Government on amending the tax law.
