Strike and demonstration day on November 5, 2026

On October 23, 2026, all staff unions in state-contracted private education called for a strike on November 5, as part of a national interprofessional day of mobilization, to denounce pay rises deemed insufficient in the face of inflation. On October 25, after the mobilizations of October 17 and 24, the inter-union body called for a strike and demonstration day on November 5 for wages, public services, jobs and industry, with transport, education and health concerned. On October 26 and 27, the Stade Rennais-Olympiakos match scheduled for November 5 could be moved forward due to the social movements, Alain Bauer estimates that the government fears this strike, and Anasse Kazib calls on railway workers to mobilize after a local strike at 98% of signallers at the Bourget classification yard. On the evening of October 27, as high school student mobilization continues, union leaderships multiply meetings with the government and employers ahead of the day of action, with FO and CFTC due to negotiate with Medef on youth employment. On October 28, the mayor of Angers, Christophe Béchu, refuses to allow the FO bus to park, the signallers at the SNCF Bourget classification yard renew their strike at 98% and call for mobilization on November 5, while Michel-Édouard Leclerc believes demonstrations must take place, and an Elabe poll for BFMTV indicates that 59% of French people support or feel sympathy
