"Labour Day Protests in France Challenge Macron's Pension Reform"

French President Emmanuel Macron faces more nationwide protests on Labour Day as he seeks to move on from a divisive pension law that has sparked anger and social unrest. Last month, he signed a law to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64, despite months of strikes against the bill. Unions and the opposition are hoping for a mass turnout at the May Day rallies to let Macron know they continue to oppose the pension overhaul. Almost three in four French people were unhappy with Macron, a survey by the IFOP polling group found last month.
