Unions hope to do at least as well as January 19

After the mobilization of January 19, in which 1 to 2 million people demonstrated against the reform, the unions hope to do at least the same. A hope reinforced by polls that attest to a growing rejection of public opinion, such as our recent Elabe study for BFMTV: 72% of the French were against the reform, according to our latest poll published on Wednesday.

The strike promises to be very popular at school and in transport. Teacher unions forecast 50% strikes among teachers, from kindergarten to high school. In the Paris region, metro and RER traffic will be “severely disrupted”, according to the RATP. The same in the rest of France for SNCF traffic.

An intelligence source expects 1.2 million protesters nationwide “in the high range, including 100,000 in Paris, with 240 processions or rallies expected.”
