The tension in the supply of fuel in no way justifies the jump in prices at some gas stations. We do not allow artificially inflated prices. I urged DGCCRF to act. Inspections take place in @hautsdefrance https://t.co/RXJWH912tA

Will the situation finally improve? A priori, it is not yet for today. Indeed, it has been almost two weeks since TotalEnergies and Esso-ExxonMobil workers have gone on strike to get a pay rise, demanding a 10% increase. A request that management does not wish to respond to that has already been agreed to a an increase of 6%.. But this is not enough for the strikers and the CGT, who want to continue the movement towards victory. But so far the talks appear to have reached an impasse, with TotalEnergies first demanding an end to the blockade of warehouses and refineries. A request to which the unions do not want to have access.

Renewed strike

Indeed, the CGT coordinator of the TotalEnergies group has told our BFM colleagues that the strike action will resume again this Wednesday. ” The conflict will continue at least until noon on Wednesday, and we will see what happens next at the general meeting.“. It also states that “there will also be meetings of all CGT organizations to decide whether the day calls for others“. Suffice it to say that motorists are anxiously waiting to see what happens next, and some are already unable to move due to lack of fuel. Sometimes, some have to wait more than two hours resorts find fuel

.

Several oil refineries have stopped

At present, the workers are still closely monitoring this strike movement, while five refineries and warehouses are currently involved, namely Normandy, Donge, La Med, Fezine and Flanders. The number of strikers is not disclosed. So far, no agreement has been reached on wages between workers and management, and the movement could continue for several more days.

According to a recent IFPEN study, a hybrid car that runs on E85 superethanol pollutes less than a 100% electric model. https://t.co/qkwv7WpVY0
