Le Monde: Seine reopens to Paris swimmers after century-long ban
Seine reopens to Paris swimmers after century-long ban
The Seine River in Paris reopened for swimming on July 5, 2025, for the first time since 1923, following a significant cleanup effort linked to the Paris 2024 Olympics. Three designated swimming zones have been established, equipped with facilities and monitored for water quality.

Officials are ensuring swimmer safety with daily pollution tests and lifeguards assessing swimming abilities. While the water quality is reportedly excellent, there are warnings about strong currents and boat traffic. The initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance urban life and adapt to climate change.

Parents hit out at school trust after girls BANNED from wearing skirts to 'promote inclusivity'
The Northern Education Trust has announced a ban on skirts in its new school uniform policy, effective September 2026, stating that trousers promote equality and practicality for students. This decision follows updated Department of Education guidelines aimed at making uniforms more affordable.

Parents have expressed outrage, with some labeling the move as "outrageous misogyny," arguing that it restricts girls' ability to express their gender identities. The trust claims to have received mostly positive feedback from students regarding the change.
