A woman is seen sitting at a bus-stop with French riot police behind her as ten of thousands of people march in the centre of Paris against pension reform plans. The plans by the Emmanuel Macron’s government, to increase the retirement age from 62 to 64, have been met with anger and protests. The trade union, the communist CGT and the radical left wing opposition party NUPES, have called the unlimited March strikes a make or break moment for the law and have vowed to block France entirely and as long as necessary despite potentially costly consequences on the French economy.
