In this edition of Rendezvous, RFI's Philip Turle takes a look at French government plans to overhaul the country's pension system and finds out why trade unions and the opposition are unhappy about the new measures. The new measures include plans to move the current retirement age from 60 to 62 which the government claims is essential due to the fact that people are living longer lives and there are more and more old people. But the opposition argues that making people work longer will penalise certain sectors of the workforce, particularly those who started work before the age of 18 and those who have had tough working lives.
