Live: France strike set to paralyze country as protesters take to streets - CNN

was his prime minister and, like today, a wave of freezing cold weather had descended on the country.

After 2 million people took to the streets and nearly three weeks of near total paralysis, the pension reform was dropped. It hadn't been attempted since. Until now. President Emmanuel Macron has announced reforms that would put an end to the 42 retirement schemes currently in place in France.: Schemes, which include special provisions for certain professions, like rail workers and train drivers who benefit from early retirement, would be unified into a single points-based system that would give all workers the same rights.

In Paris alone, 300 of the capital's 652 primary schools will be closed because of the strike action. And 6,000 police officers will be deployed in Paris for rallies across the city, with protests on the Champs Elysees, Matignon and police stations forbidden.

56 weeks they've protested immigration, climate change taxes, globalism, etc... Now you want to show over pensions. Working class French ppl are fighting for country.

We're with you France, Democrats want to dig into our pensions and well.

Is their anyone in France that is not protesting against Macron and encouraging Macron to Resign?

Have the other outlets acknowledged it with why it is happening or just pointed out unrest? Plus, give them the credit they deserve...my fellow lazy Americans complain in their living rooms, coffee shops and wherever else including Twitter rather than doing anything.
