I'd rather support the French truckers than the Daily Pail (of hate).

Just saying

Haven't seen anything in French newspapers but I haven't looked closely. We're travelling Monday so I'll be taking more notice..

Is it possible that the Daily Fail has made a mistake?

Just wondering

French truckers on strike? I had not realised it was that time of the year. Must get a move on as the ferries usually go on strike just after the truckers and before air traffic control.

Am on BFM tv which is devoted to the news. Dad listens to this all day long. Not heard a single word at all about this.

Daily mail seems to be from 2002.

Mind you, sometime soon, when the new President will start discussing new laws...you might have to face a few strikes.

I live here in France and I haven't seen anything on the French news about it. But to be honest, I didn't know they had gone back to work from the last strike. If the truckers do strike, it will be interesting to see how Mr Macron deals with it.

How are you getting on with the transients Yodeli (gypsy) ?? A question. When a male friend refers to me as "mon grand" what exactly is the inference. Is it similar to good friend, close friend ??

So who has managed to dig up 15 years old news.

It's a bit like "boy" or "matey" . More like a dad talking to his eldest. Dads might want to give advices to their sons, but after a certain age, they will have to be careful with the way they calling them, so they don t feel like little boys.

As for the gypsies...i don 't know as I m away. Gendarmes look after my house...

15 year old article?

It's not a 'Truck driver' strike, simply a strike by transporters of 'dangerous goods' as in fuel, gas, chemicals etc.

Starting on 26th for an indefinite period.

Yup. And we will go back to being the same if Jeremy and his mates win the election. I am old enough to remember the winter of discontent and the 3 day week.

The 3 day week was caused by the Tories, the Winter of Discontent by Labour. Seems neither party have a good track record

We shouldn't put up with this bullying...

All out Lads...

Great days...

The strike called for by the CGT has nothing to do with a newspaper from a foreign country .... It concerns transport of hazardous goods - gas, automotive fuel, chemicals etc. Obviously automotive fuel availability affects the motoring public more than the other materials ... Garages have on average stock for three days, and normally they restrict the amount and temporarily ban the filling of cans to make it available to all for as long as possible ...
