Protesters march during a demonstration Tuesday, March 28, 2023 in Lille, northern France.
THE leader of the French Communists has refused to meet with Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne and — called for parliamentarians to march on the Elysee Palace to demand the scrapping of pension reforms.
Ms Borne has insisted she intends to press ahead with the unpopular changes, which raise the pension age from 62 to 64.
In an interview for France Inter television yesterday, French Communist Party general secretary Fabien Roussel said: “I tell the Prime Minister to hear our anger as parliamentarians.”
