Le Monde: French petition against pesticide reaches two million signatories
A student-led petition in France against the reintroduction of the pesticide acetamiprid has surpassed two million signatures, increasing pressure on President Macron to reconsider a recently adopted law allowing its use. The legislation, passed without extensive debate, has drawn criticism from various sectors, including the culinary world.
The pesticide, banned in France since 2018 but still legal in the EU, is favored by farmers for pest control. A poll indicates that 64% of the public hopes Macron will not sign the bill into law and will instead seek further debate. The Constitutional Council is expected to rule on the law's constitutionality soon.

Yusuf highlights specific sections that could enable extensive censorship, urging immediate government action to prevent normalization of these practices. He also criticized the previous Conservative government for its role in passing the legislation, asserting that it threatens free speech in Britain.
