France: Strike and demonstrations against the cost of living and authorities deploy 70 thousand police and gendarmerie officers
demonstrators waving flags and flags on the streets of French towns, and public sector workers started a Thursday strike, in a new challenge for President Emmanuel McCrone after disturbances over weeks, his Government had shaken five months before the presidential election. This movement, advocated by trade unions, including the General Confederation of Left Labour (CGT) and supported by student-representative groups, is the result of the high cost of living, the deterioration of public services and education demonstrations that have erupted in France for years.
