NURSES, doctors, aeroplane staff and lawyers are due to walk out on strike tomorrow over French President Emmanuel Macron’s pensions raid.

The mass action follows transport workers’ strikes that paralysed Paris on Friday. Mass opposition has already led Mr Macron to pause some of the proposals, such as raising the retirement age, as the government fears reigniting the huge Yellow Vests protests that rocked the country following his attempt to raise taxes on fuel.

But it is still proposing “reforms” that will massively raise pension contributions in certain occupations — clinic-based nurses say their contributions are set to double.
