Toulouse: Nationwide Day Of Strike And Protest For Purchasing Power
A flag of the French communist Party. More than 7.000 people demonstrated in Toulouse called by French CGT, FSU and SUD labour unions and political parties (PCF, NUPES, etc.) during a nationwide day of strike seeking to capitalise on anger at decades-high inflation to expand weeks of industrial action at oil refineries to other economic sectors. They want to push for government measures to address inflation, workers' rights and pension reforms as inflation is shrinking their purchasing power. Protesters want President Macron to scrap his planned reforms of pensions and unemployment allowances. They push for a pay hike as inflation and energy prices are skyrocketing. They also support the strikes in refineries and nuclear power plants. Toulouse. France. October 19th 2022. (Photo by Alain Pitton/NurPhoto)
