...stage demonstrations in the streets without forming any clear plans for the future. That is a very paradoxical situation. May the kind of cool reforms you described continue in France and the rest of Europe. Charles Carchereux Pontoise, France Reform is possible in France, even if the sound defeat of the Prime Minister's youth job bill seems to suggest otherwise.
