French student protests spread as schools close nationwide
Original: French Student protests spread across France as hundreds of schools close, thousands arrested; Macron withdraws police,
Student protests have spread across France, with hundreds of schools closing and reports of thousands of arrests. President Macron is said to have withdrawn police, while the Prime Minister has proposed a €64 billion education budget in response. The scale of school closures and the concessions offered are drawing wide attention and debate within France and beyond.
Why now: The sheer scale of the protests and the government's rapid concessions, including a large education budget proposal, have made the movement a major talking point.
