Josephine CorcoranI hope everyone is safe in #France. Guardian live blog is reporting continuing unrest in Marseilles and other places. It looks increasingly chaotic. Does anyone have first hand experience or is in touch with friends/relatives? How are people coping? How widespread is the rioting?
Sarah W@JosephineCorcoran outside the effected areas in a few cities, everything is normal. There has been talk of events being cancelled but thankfully this hasn't happened except in places where riots are going on.
@Sarahw Thanks for replying. It’s hard to find accurate information. The Guardian live blog is saying Saturday night was quieter. It’s also hard to understand how widespread the riots are.
Peta Morton@JosephineCorcoran @Sarahw Marseillr and Paris were still pretty hectic last night from what I can see. If you're not in the thick of it you wouldn't notice much difference.
@Sarahw @PetaMorton Thank you, I tried that - but noticed it’s being co-opted go to some extent by rightist groups in a similar way to riotsinfrance being exploited by far right groups on twtr
