The French are the only masters on board!...

PARIS (Reuters) - Nearly six out of ten French people are in favor of continuing the movement against pension reform even after the probable adoption of the text in the Senate, according to a BVA-Absoluce poll for Les Echos and France Info.

According to this survey, 59% of respondents say they are "in favor of unions continuing their calls for strike movements and demonstrations after the adoption of the pension reform text by Parliament".

They are 40% to think the opposite and 1% do not decide.

Furthermore, 62% of respondents ask President Nicolas Sarkozy to take a break from reforms and more than two thirds (68%) consider the economic policy pursued by the government "bad".

The survey was conducted by telephone on October 15 and 16 among 1.005 people aged 15 and over.
