Why France’s Pink Plates Are Turning Heads

Spotted a car in France with a bright pink license plate? It’s not a Barbiecore trend—it’s the country’s new way to flag vehicles with temporary registrations. These eye-popping plates, rolling out in 2026, make it super easy for police to spot cars in transit, imports, or test drives. Bonus: the expiration date is printed right on the plate, so there’s no hiding if you’re overdue! Would you want to see these in your country? #Cars #France #LicensePlates

French Poll Reveals Sharia Law Support

Whoa, did you see this poll? About 1 in 3 Muslims in France think Sharia law should be the law of the land—everywhere. Plus, nearly half say it’s legit to push for Islamic values in Western politics. The Muslim Brotherhood’s influence is especially strong among younger folks, with almost a third of under-25s backing them. The numbers are sparking big debates about religion, politics, and identity in France right now. #Religion #France #ShariaLaw

#3 for the morning... Paris has surrendered (like that has never happened before... ) Paris canceled the iconic New Year’s Eve concert on the Champs-Élysées due to security threats by migrants. They won’t say it’s because of migrants, and they will never address the problem. They are at the point of no return. The Champs-Élysées has been Paris’s symbolic place for celebrations since the Liberation parade in 1944. This is the year it ends. Now the French have to watch the fireworks on their televisions. According to the Telegraph, one million people were expected to attend. The cancellation of the New Year’s Eve event comes after France bolstered security at Christmas markets over ‘a “very high” terror threatA free open-air concert at the Arc de Triomphe, video projections on the monument and the midnight festivities that once drew close to a million people. Instead, the concert has been scrapped. It will be replaced on national television with a prerecorded concert filmed weeks ago with a handpicked crowd to mimic a celebration Paris no longer believes it can safely host. A capital once famed for its public life now performs it under studio conditions. It marks the collapse of what used to be one of the simplest pleasures of Parisian life. For decades, families and friends would spill out onto the streets on New Year’s Eve. Families, couples carrying a bottle of champagne, tourists wrapped in scarves, all drifting towards the Champs Élysées to count down the final seconds of the year. It was spontaneous and cheerful, and open to everyone. That Paris no longer exists. They brought in the monsters, and now they are a country of monsters. The French are conquered. They won’t even mention where the security threats are coming from when we all know it’s due to the visitors... #backcountryperspective #france

France’s Train Drama: No Kids Allowed?!

TGV INOUI just launched a new premium train carriage in France—and it’s adults-only. Yep, kids are banned from the ‘Optimum’ class, which promises quiet and privacy for grown-ups. But the move has sparked outrage, with critics calling it discrimination against families and kids. Some say it’s a win for peace and quiet, others think it’s a step too far. Would you pay extra for a child-free train ride, or is this just unfair? #Transportation #France #TGV
