France cuts subsidies for shop looters

Original: Today: "Ladri e saccheggiatori, i sussidi sono finiti": il governo francese taglia gli aiuti a chi ha devastato i negozi

The French government has announced it will cut welfare subsidies to people convicted of looting or vandalising shops during the recent riots. Housing Minister Vincent Jeanbrun said the measure was agreed with other ministers, warning that 'for thieves and looters, the subsidies are over' and that the state will hit rioters in the wallet.

Why now: The announcement follows the recent riots in France, and the hard-line response to looters is drawing attention and debate.
