Paris metro and other public transport workers walked off the job Friday over a planned pension overhaul, sparking huge traffic jams and forcing many people to stay home for the one-day strike action.

I wonder if the Gilets Jaunes will be able to use this to generate synergy to boost their own efforts.

Dunno, these efforts to make people "work longer" may only generate less efficiency in the work that is done.

Cheers

Work till you die poor is the ethic.
Funny how those doing pension reform never see their own gold plated pensions reformed.

Solidarity with the strikers.

Beautiful idea. Any reforms made must also effect them.

Yea, I don't much like the French anyway so............solidarity with the strikers.

One thing though..........the infamous French Metro pick-pockets will damn near starve if this lasts too long.
