[LIST=1][*]Brunos. As French as it gets. Looking at the world from Hong Kong doesn't make him less "understanding how France works". If you like, discount his "understanding France" by 10% because he spends part of his time living elsewhere.
Exactly. Maybe too long in Hong Kong, but there's no excuse for not understanding the current climate if you are paying attention to what is happening in France. Sorry I didn't see anyone else claim that there would be strikes during the Euros. Hint: there are multiple dynamics at work here. It's not just what the CGT wants.

Just try to understand what these strikes are about, what the Government's position is, and what the average person striking cares about, what the economical situation is and more.
