Get this they get whole month of August off in France that my birthday month if I have entire month off for my birthday oh yeah I party my brain out with my Family LOL! they also get free health care France entered a period of political uncertainty on Thursday as French President Emmanuel Macron rammed a controversial pension reform through parliament without a vote by invoking a special executive measure. With the opposition braced for a no-confidence vote and the unions threatening more strikes, France witnessed a dramatic afternoon in politics. The scenes in the National Assembly, France’s lower house of parliament, on Thursday appeared to have been lifted from historical dramas dating back to the country’s revolutionary past. “Aux armes citoyens, formez vos bataillons,” sang opposition lawmakers as the chamber echoed with the rousing cry of La Marseillaise, the French national anthem, rallying citizens to take up arms and form battalions. “S’il vous plait, s’il vous plait,” pleaded Yaël Braun-Pivet, the speaker of the National Assembly, ineffectually trying to get order in the house. www.france24.com/en/france/20230316-a-dog-day-afternoon-in-french-politics-as-macron-uses-nuclear-option-to-raise-retirement-age

Here the bad side ton of garage being left on Paris street GROSS! Paris stinks as uncollected trash mounts to 10,000 tonnes due to strikes The amount of trash uncollected on Paris streets due to a waste workers strike has surged to 10,000 tonnes, despite efforts to force them back to duty, authorities said Friday. The new estimate – up from 7,600 tonnes earlier in the week – comes after Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said that strikers were being forced back under emergency powers designed to safeguard essential services. "From today, from this morning, requisitioning is working and bins are being emptied," he told RTL radio. www.france24.com/en/france/20230317-paris-stinks-as-uncollected-trash-mounts-to-10-000-tonnes-due-to-strikes
