French unrest analysed by press

After an 11th night of unrest across France, the papers try to decipher the reasons behind the rioting.

The Independent calls into question the French vision of a nation united by Liberte, Egalite and Fraternite.

It says the "realite," is that "France is burning because politicians ignored the problems of its immigrants."

A French journalist in the Guardian says Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy heightened the unrest by describing rioters as "vermin" and "scum."

'Deep rooted'

As papers report on continued trouble in France, the Daily Telegraph claims the unrest's origins are deep rooted.

The paper cites housing policy, high unemployment and the long-held policy of trying to fully integrate ethnic minorities into French society.

But it says in the midst of the trouble it can see the start of a political movement trying to express itself.

The Times tries to put the unrest in context, saying more than 30,000 cars have already been burned out in France this year.

'No compromise'

As the anti-terror debate is analysed by the papers, the Sun says compromise is unacceptable.

"Bang 'Em Up!" it declares, reporting how families of victims of the 7 July bombings want MPs to hold terror suspects for up to 90 days.

Elsewhere, the Morning Star says the TUC has called for a law to protect workers from bullying after figures showed 2m people had recently suffered.

And the Daily Mirror says: "Dodgy dads to be tagged" according to 'leaked' proposals to shake up the Child Support Agency.

Men's surgery

There is plenty of debate about the apparent rise in the number of men undergoing plastic surgery.

Several papers report how men are more body conscious and many view liposuction as less painful than working off excess fat in the gym.

The Independent looks to the City where it says big bonuses this year mean more and more men can afford surgery.

That may be some consolation for men reading the news in the Daily Mail that the hormone oestrogen means women are naturally better drivers.
