According to a CSA survey for Europe 1 – CNews and JDD, 52% of French people are in favor of a ban on strikes in public transport during school holidays. This is three points more than in the last CSA survey with the same question last November.
To the question "should strikes be banned in public transport during school holidays?", the French answered 52% yes. This is what reveals a CSA survey for Europe 1-CNews and the JDD published this Wednesday February 14. According to the survey figures, 62% of people aged 50 and over consider themselves in favor of this ban. 63% of those under 35 are rather against it.
This survey comes as controllers announce a strike, particularly for better pay conditions, for the second weekend of the school holidays.

Significant differences between right and left
The results are approximately similar between the different socio-professional categories: thus, 53% of CSP + position themselves in favor of the ban and 48% of CSP - express the same opinion. Among the inactive, 53% are also in favor of this ban measure.
In terms of political sensitivities, 36% of respondents positioning themselves on the left of the political spectrum - from EELV to the radical left - are in favor of the ban and 63% are against. For the right, from the National Rally to the right-wing parties, 61% are in favor of the ban and 39% against. Among those surveyed who are sensitive to the Republicans' speech, 77% were in favor of the ban.
