Labour unions have called for a day of major strike action and protests across France, as President Emmanuel Macron's government plans to raise the retirement age to 64 from 62, a move which opinion polls show is opposed by 93% of workers already facing a cost-of-living crisis. Nearly all sectors unions are participating in the strike and protest, including mining and energy, health, schooling sector, transportation, truck drivers, refining workers, and bank workers.
