Parisian streets are piling over with garbage amid retirement age strike
More than 5,600 tons of garbage had piled up by Monday, according to The Associated Press.“It makes me sick,” said striker Gursel Durnaz. “There are bins everywhere, stuff all over. People can’t get past. We’re completely aware.”French President Emmanuel Macron’s government is proposing to raise the retirement age by two years, from 62 to 64 years old for most people, and from 57 to 59 for most people in the sanitation sector.
On Tuesday, French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne said she was confident there’ll be a majority in parliament to pass the reform.“Monsieur Macron wants us to die on the job,” said Frederic Aubisse, a sewer worker. On Wednesday, unions are organizing their eighth nationwide protest march since January — the third in nine days — the same day lawmakers are meeting to agree on the text of the bill.Some protests against the reform have turned violent, while others are aimed at disruption, including key refineries blocked and railway transport disrupted.
