| The French on strike?! Johnson! Stop the presses!! Not to worry, the workers already did ... Striking workers on Thursday marched in France's second nationwide street protest this year to denounce President Nicolas Sarkozy's handling of the economic crisis. Unions and left-wing parties hope to draw more than a million people into the streets to demand a boost to wages and greater economic protection, with some 200 rallies planned across France. |
