Possible General Strike in France

21st March 2006 French trade unions and student organisations have called for a one-day general strike on March 28 to pressurise the conservative government to withdraw a new youth employment law they say undermines French labour law.

"All the unions are calling to make March 28 a day of demonstrations, strikes and work stoppages." claimed one union representative.

It is not known how this will affect travel to, from or via France at this time.
