Thousands of people march ‘for jobs and industry’ in the streets of Paris, on the call of the CGT, Solidaires and FSU, in a social context marked by an upsurge in redundancy plans. "Last week, there were 286 redundancy plans. We are now over 300. This represents roughly 200,000 employees in the country who risk losing their jobs, both directly and indirectly," says Thomas Vacheron, CGT confederal secretary. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
