A nationwide public sector strike erupted in France on September 29, 2026, with more than 170 demonstrations reported across 91 departments, from Paris and Lille to Marseille and Toulouse. Commenters say coverage of the unrest has been limited, with some describing the country as in turmoil while broadcasters stay largely quiet. Critics are questioning why the scale of the mobilisation has drawn little airtime.
