"Hi, it's Leo, what does it say?"

This Thursday, May 12, as the government proposes tightening security measures, two days after the death of a school monitor stabbed by a middle school student, voices are being raised, pointing out the absence of prevention in political discourse. The Ministry of Health has just unveiled a plan for the mental health of the French population, without specifying a budget or the recruitment of school psychologists.

The town of Ballymena, in Northern Ireland, has just experienced a third night of racist riots . Vandals and arsonists targeted Romanian immigrants, while a young woman accused two young Roma men of attempted rape. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer called for calm and denounced the violence as "senseless."

Canal+ will also become the first TV studio in the world to offer virtual reality content on the Apple Vision Pro. An immersive documentary about Johann Zarco's victory is planned for September 2025.
