Large demonstrations are expected to take place across France today in the latest phase of the protest movement that’s gripped the country for the last month. The action has been called by the main trade unions which are demanding pay rises to offset the effects of inflation. Democrats have been setting out their priorities for the next Congress. It follows their triumphant result in the midterms elections in the US.
