10. A couple of polls show 57 to 63% of French support the strikers.

According to several opinion polls, the strike is supported by the majority of the French public, with a Viavoice poll published in Libération today showing 63% of respondents declaring themselves to be "on the side" of the protests. More generally, the poll said 45% of people were "revolted" by France's current socio-economic situation.

More than half of French -- 57 percent -- want the government to draw up a new pension reform law, an opinion poll in the communist daily L'Humanite said, while 27 percent want the bill to remain as is.
