And finally… piste-off

Striking workers at ski resorts across France who are angry over unemployment benefit reforms have called for a new day of protests.

Around 50 ski resorts have been affected over the past week because of strike action and another day of protest has been called for today.

The CGT and FO unions have said they do not know how many resorts will be affected.

Workers argue that the unemployment benefits system in France unfairly affects seasonal workers.
