Clashes broke out between demonstrators and police in Paris as thousands took to the streets to battle the French government's pension reform
BFM television broadcast images of several dozen hardleft CGT trade union militants briefly occupying the building in Aubervilliers, northern Paris, as marches got under way in towns and cities across France.Trade unions have fought Macron's move to make the French work longer since mid-January, with rolling strikes and protests that have at times descended into violence on the fringes.
"This will be the last protest of this kind over the pension matter," Lauren Berger, head of the reform-minded CFDT trade union, said ahead of the protest in Paris. Between 400,000 and 600,000 people were expected to join the protests, authorities said, which would be down from more than a million who took part at the height of the pension protests earlier this year.
