France: opinion on several strikes

Questioned in October 2022, the French expressed a greater defiance towards the strikes in the refineries than during the march against the high cost of living. Indeed, half of them were opposed or hostile to the mobilization in the refineries, against less than a third during the one against living costs. The mobilization with the highest support level since August 2021 was the one against the pension reform, with a rate of 56 percent.
