French Workers Protest Proposed Pension Changes

In France, over a million working people took to the streets to protest President Macron's proposed changes to the country's pension system. Macron aims to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64 years. This has sparked a strong resistance from workers who fought hard to establish the existing pension system after World War II. They view retirement as a time to enjoy life and believe that everyone should have the right to a dignified retirement. The strikes and demonstrations in France aim to preserve the legacy of previous generations and ensure a better future for the working class. Despite facing opposition from the government, workers intend to continue their fight and have planned a new day of general strike on January 31.
