What rights are we talking about here? France is not an impoverished country where corruption is everywhere. It's not.
We have the same rights in France, here we only discuss a pension regime that people are mad about because it means they need to pull the finger out of their arse to get to work and stop relying on the government.

I used to strike when I was much younger for much harder causes that created less division in the country. This one is uncalled for and stupid. The unions know exactly what they are doing by harassing a new guy in politics thinking he's weak.
My issue also is that they don't represent a majority a French people, it's always the same unions that are blocking the country and create a climate of tension and division, and don't respect the results from a direct election that took place 2 years and a half ago.
And what about the people who voted for Macron? They just need to shut up and accept it from the sounds of the unions. And that's not right, he was elected by the people so let him do his job.

[Macron is young, fresh, full of 21st century ideas,
he's trying to take us to a new era,
but those unions would rather
disrespect him and the results of an election.]

Yes they liked him when he Won.
but now the Cut backs
are splitting France
Much like the UK.

A fine job if what, expressing his opinion? I'm sure he appreciates that cherie.
