The first 'national day of protest' against pension reform on December 5th saw hundreds of thousands of people take to the streets and transport services across France come to a virtual standstill.
Now nearly two months later protest days are still being declared by some unions, but their effect has tailed off dramatically.
The trade unions CGT, FO, FSU, Solidaires, FIDL, MNL, UNL and UNEF are calling for Wednesday, January 29th, to be a “massive day of strikes and inter-professional and inter-generational demonstrations.”
