In Monday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley discuss why the riots and looting have unfolded across France over the past few days, and how Emmanuel Macron, the French president, has reacted. Camilla and Tim debate whether Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s proposals for closer ties with the EU make sense considering the political issues and state of unrest in some of its member countries. Our presenters also weigh up the issues French protesters have been demonstrating against and how the UK is facing similar challenges. The pair further discuss how Andy Burnham, the Prime Minister, could prevent such civil disruption taking place.
