LIVE: France pension protests - anti-Macron protests ahead of Constitutional Council decision. An elite French institution was expected to rule Friday on whether President Emmanuel Macron´s contested plan to raise the retirement age is constitutional, a decision that could calm or further enrage opponents of the change.
All eyes were on the heavily guarded Constitutional Council , which can nix all or parts of a complex pension reform plan that Macron pushed through without a vote by the lower house of parliament. Spontaneous demonstrations were likely around France ahead of the nine-member court's ruling.
The president´s drive to increase the retirement age from 62 to 64 has provoked months of labor strikes and protests. Violence by pockets of ultra-left radicals marked the 12 otherwise peaceful nationwide marches that unions organized since January.
