The Daily Mail reports that "'Student' riots rock France as masked men torch schools and douse teachers in petrol." The "students" pictured in the article appear to all be Middle-Eastern or African, not French. The article also notes: "The Left-wing mayor of Saint-Denis, Bally Bagayoko told protesters on Tuesday 'violence can be legitimate'." As you can guess from the mayor's name, he also is African. The article adds:
Speaking in Madrid yesterday, President Emmanuel Macron slammed hard-Left politicians he accused of 'legitimising violence' in the French school protests.
Mr Macron has since called a crisis meeting in Paris to deal with the spiralling unrest. French media reported that all ministerial trips have been cancelled until the beginning of next week, in light of the heightened security situation.
Interior minister Laurent Nunez slammed the 'targeting of law enforcement officers, the throwing of projectiles, acts of violence, verbal abuse, attempted arson, and what amounts... to urban violence'.
