French protest groups and labour leaders called on 25 October for further demonstrations on 31 October and a nationwide strike on 5 November, Reuters reported.

The calls follow Saturday’s marches and a major police deployment. SUD Education said it would join the next demonstration, while the CGT would decide during the week. The planned action remains forthcoming; participation by every union is not confirmed.
