'Out of Breath,' 'Billionaires, the Country Doesn't Belong to You': French Public Servants Rise in Revolt In Paris on Tuesday, anger is boiling over. Public sector workers are taking to the streets, united as one clenched fist, to defend their working conditions, salaries, and public services — all battered by relentless austerity policies."At the moment, politicians are attacking public services, cutting civil servants’ rights, and increasingly seeking to dismantle and erase them altogether — all to fund war efforts, for example. That’s also a key issue right now," a protester told Sputnik Africa. The wave of resistance isn’t limited to Paris: from Lyon to Strasbourg, via Orléans, Bayonne, and Grenoble, a nationwide strike day ignites the whole of France. Civil servants are raising their voices in defiance, demanding a decent future for all.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
