Government figures showed the number of jobseekers went up by 34,000 to 2.81 million - that is up nearly 5 per cent year on year.

France has not seen unemployment levels like that since December 1999. It could prove a headache for President Nicholas Sarkozy, who is trailing in the polls and faces an election in five months.

Egypt - Turnout 'high' in election despite protests / مصر -- الاقبال 'العالية' في الانتخابات على الرغم من الاحتجاجات

Published on Nov 28, 2011 by
http://www.euronews.net/ Egyptians have gone to the polls in large numbers for the first parliamentary elections since Hosni Mubarak's downfall. Voting was extended for two hours because the turnout has been higher than expected.
