9:17 a.m .: Bulldozer

François Ruffin denounced Wednesday the passage in force of the government which "advances like a kind of bulldozer" and wants to "return to the truncheon" its pension reform. "The law on pensions, today we will bring it in the baton, this is how it will pass", accused on RTL the deputy of the Somme François Ruffin.

"As the government can no longer train society, it dominates it and it requires coercive force," he criticized. “I'm not saying it's a fascist regime or a dictatorial regime; on the other hand, we are living in a time when the government relies very heavily on the force of the baton, "he insisted, denouncing an" authoritarian tightening ".

8:36 a.m.

At SNCF, "the service will be normal for TGV, Thalys, Eurostar and almost normal for Intercities," said management. For the TER, "some disturbances" are expected in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Occitanie and Nouvelle-Aquitaine, according to the railway group.

In Ile-de-France, the Transilien network (RER SNCF, suburban trains) will be "slightly disturbed with an average of 4 trains out of 5" in circulation, said management. For RER A and B, operated jointly by SNCF and RATP, there is a "normal service" for RER A, while on the RER B line, there will be 4 trains out of 5 at peak times and 3 out of 4 trains during off-peak periods.

The RATP confirmed the “almost normal” traffic forecasts on Wednesday, announced by its CEO, Catherine Guillouard, on Monday evening at the Parisien. "The unlimited strike is behind us," she added.

8:24 a.m .: Strike continues in incinerators

The CGT Energie voted to renew the shutdown of the three incinerators in Ile-de-France for one week, until February 3, the date on which the examination of the pension bill takes place in committee at the Assembly national. The three centers in Ivry-sur-Seine, Issy-les-Moulineaux and Saint-Ouen, which process 6,000 tonnes of waste per day produced by 6 million Ile-de-France residents, have been shutdown since Thursday evening.

Waste manager Syctom has announced that it will "put the operators of the three centers on notice to return to normal operation, ask the State to requisition staff for public health reasons and request the Prefect of Police to police intervention to clear the sites, "said his spokesman.

According to the organization, the shutdown of the ovens, which prevents the treatment of waste is an "environmental disaster" because "out of 6,000 tonnes per day of waste treated in normal times, 5,000 tonnes are currently buried". In addition, incineration contributes to district heating, and the shutdown of the ovens deprives the Parisian district heating company (CPCU) of part of its supply.

8:15 a.m .: Firefighters have obtained satisfaction

The firefighters and professional firefighters unions announced Tuesday evening the end of their mobilization started last summer, after several announcements from the Ministry of the Interior in matters of wages and pensions. These measures were announced by the ministry during a meeting with the unions in the afternoon, as several thousand firefighters and firefighters marched through Paris to demand responses from the government to their demands.

The government has notably committed to revaluing the fire bonus to 25% of base salary next summer (compared to 19% currently), and to preserve the mechanisms enabling firefighters to retire early in exchange for additional contributions. The increase in the fire premium was confirmed to the press by the Minister of the Interior Christophe Castaner during a trip to the north of Paris.

8:02 am: Hello and welcome to this new strike live on this eighth day of mobilization against the pension reform. Baroud of honor or resumption, we do not know. Anyway, we are together all day!
