In 1968 I took a school trip to Switzerland. The train journey was 12 hours longer than it should have been because we had to re-route due to the student riots in Paris.

More recently the French lorry drivers took to burning British lorries and illegaly blockading ports.

As a nation it has been long known that the French are indeed revolting...

Seriously though, the riot and civil disobediance route has long been the way with the Frenchman who disagrees with what the government (or monarchy!) is doing. It does not surprise me in the slightest that the recent rioters are not first generation immigtants. The fact that they are rioting shows that they have embraced the French way of life fully!
