France is preparing for further political unrest

President Macron is not backing down following huge protests against a controversial pension law pushed through parliament without a vote last week.

It will lift the retirement age from 62 to 64.

Paris correspondent Catherine Field says the Minister of the Interior has just briefed the public on what to expect for upcoming demonstrations.

She says there will be 15,000 Police on patrol across the country, with rallies expected in 50 cities.
