Protests erupts in France over Macron’s push to raise retirement age
"PARIS (AP) — Angry protesters disrupted traffic along a busy Paris ring road Friday in opposition to French President Manuel Macron’s decision to ram a bill raising the retirement age from 62 to 64 through parliament without a vote while the government faces two no-confidence motions.
A day after Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne invoked a special constitutional power to skirt a vote in a chaotic lower chamber, the far-right National Rally and a small group representing leftist lawmakers and others filed separate no-confidence motions that are expected to be voted on early next week.
The fury Borne had faced in the National Assembly poured into the streets with citizens resolving to carry on their protests against the widely unpopular measure."
