This year's May Day labour celebration in France is like no other as trade unions, supporters of incumbent President Nicolas Sarkozy and the country’s far right simultaneously hit the streets of Paris five days before the final presidential vote. Falling five days before France picks its next president, this year’s International Workers’ Day, also known as May Day, stands as a high-stakes campaign event for rivaling political camps. Trade unions traditionally allied with the political left, supporters of incumbent president Nicolas Sarkozy, and the surging far-right National Front (FN) party, are holding competing rallies in Paris on the traditional May 1 labour movement celebration. The parading red flags of the leading CGT union usually dominate May Day in France, but the imminent May 6 presidential runoff between Sarkozy and Socialist Party challenger François Hollande has made for an altogether different national holiday this year. Socialists don’t know 'real work': Sarkozy’s desperate Mayday call Fifteen years after being kicked out of the Elysée presidential palace, the Socialists are hoping the march will add momentum to Hollande’s campaign and help sweep them back into power."
