the mobilization continues but is running out of steam

While the government ordered requisitions to lift the blockages in Port-Jérôme-sur-Seine (Seine-Maritime), near Le Havre, the employees voted to renew the strike on Thursday morning October 13. However, we note a strong breathlessness of the movement: a third less strikers compared to yesterday, Wednesday, October 12. In question ? The requisition, but also, according to a trade unionist interviewed, the duration of the movement.

The latter has now lasted for three weeks. However, the employees remain mobilized, because they expect a lot from the summary proceedings which will be filed in court this morning to contest the government’s requisitions. On the side of the depots, the rotation of the tanker trucks started this night. The trucks were able to come out this morning. The strikers present assure that they do not want to make any blockage, specifies the journalist of France Télévisions, Gilles Papin.
