"The 366 employees of New Fabris in central-eastern Chatellerault, are occupying the plant to demand that the auto giants -- who accounted for 90 percent of their business -- pay EUR 30,000 (USD 42,000) to each worker.
"The gas bottles are in the factory. Everything has been planned for it to blow up," unless there is an accord by 31 July, Guy Eyermann, CGT union official and secretary of the company works council, told AFP.

Isn't that called Terrorism?
just a normal strike in france, seems to work in some cases i.e. the French national car museum in Mullhouse was formerly the Schlumpf collection until the workers from the closed Schlumpf textile mills took over the "secret" museum . . . . . . . . . . and that got us all access to the largest collection of Bugattis
