British students don’t – and I think I know why | Kitty Sayers | The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/oct/10/angry-french-students-protests-british-dont-why > I grew up in France, where all children are taught about the revolutionary roots of their nation and the responsibility of the state towards its citizens.
