Europe is maybe doing much more than simply buying natural gas right now: they are also trying to refill the storage.
It's pretty long to build nuclear plants but in waiting that, if the situation is really desesperate (aka putin not down) i think there's still the controversial fracking solution.
"Shale gas" production would not make Europe self-sufficient in natural gas. In the most optimistic scenario, imports can be reduced at a rate of about 60%

Squeeze hard enough and you'll have the yellow vests protesting in the streets
I don't think you really know what is going on with the yellow vest phenomena. Btw a part of these people is collecting drugs for Ukraine right now.
Others (prolly the right wing of it) are shutting their mouth.
