Paris school protests met with violence, journalist warns
Original: I see what’s happening here in Paris: reasonable student demands met with awful violence
In Paris, student protests over schools have been met with what a Guardian opinion piece describes as awful violence, despite the students' demands being described as reasonable. British journalist Helen Massy-Beresford, who lives in Paris, writes that the debate around the protests has become angry and polarised. She argues the row offers a foretaste of how next year's French presidential election is likely to play out.
Why now: The harsh police or state response to student protests in Paris is fueling debate ahead of France's presidential election.
