You can't beat a bit of solidarity to get your point across.

I hope no one is driving through France today!

    Gotta love the French. No 9ne has been on the this round a bout since Saturday (even though they went home for lunch), now tonight,they've re-lit the bonny and they're there 50 / 60 handed. As if Macron is gonna know they're making a handful f folk late home from work......

    Apparently "all of France" are heading to Paris on the 25th for a mass demo....

    Perhaps the French army should be making contingency plans to patrol the streets, in case it becomes necessary to shoot their own people.

    I wonder if they fancy joining us and possibly a couple of the other nations to start a Euro Super league Union? get away from all those tin pot nations.

    "Frenchman got a problem
    He don't mind throwing a brick
    Brits watch reality TV
    Where they teach you how to be thick.

    And everybody's doing
    Just what they're told to
    And nobody wants
    To go to jail.

    Brit riot
    I wanna riot
    Brit riot
    A riot of my own."

    With apologies to Mick Jones and Joe Strummer.

    NB for people under 50s or who went to public school this is not a serious political statement.

    Quite apt really seeing as the original lyrics are probably representative of those who are rioting.

    Why don’t they just shoot the rioters. It might sound a bit harsh but it will teach them a lesson to obey the government and be grateful for what they have. And to stop being naughty. :wink:

    Well worth reading this Twitter thread from Simon Kuper- some of you may have read his footie books, but now he writes for the FT and lives in Paris. Really good, putting it into context and resisting a rush to judgment

    Are there two different protests going on?

    Keep hearing about the Yellow Jacket Protest but then I see hashtags for some #giletsjaunes Protest as well?

    What’s going on out there?

    Confused from Sidcup

    Just waiting for the Yellow Bellies to turn up

    Selective sterilisation/euthanasia combined with re-establishing the empire.
