The French President Emmanuel Macron has defended his decision to push through a controversial plan to reform the country's pensions system. Making his first public remarks in a growing domestic crisis that has seen days of protests, Emmanuel Macron said he was prepared to be unpopular, while claiming the proposed changes, which would see the age of retirement increase from 62 to 64, are necessary. His remarks come as angry protests escalate across the country.
