9:33 am
21. the stocks and thinks the attack on butcher consumer style is absolutely justified the fact the consumer is an organic butcher and cares about the welfare of the animals is a relevant to him. according to radical vegans the french should also do with cheese because they say dairy industry is cruel to animals. hon products should be banned as a matter of principle in the country of cuisine this causes some indignation. whether mussels from normandy or jump on the beyond many french delicacies i mean from animal products french cuisine even has you know goes world cultural heritage protection. also people like restaurant owner florian p.r.t. could be targeted by the militant feedings but he's not afraid he could lose his customers. if you try to all those people

you've only got a fair bit of it they're not going to eat less meat. and i talk about on the contrary. they'll develop a counter-reaction and say to themselves this is annoying now i'm going to eat meat more than ever. the government. never the less radical vegans are gaining ground in france they shake a purser's by which shark auctions hoping to make france a front runner in the fight against the consumption of animal products. but that. we may have fewer be considered in other countries like the ukraine or the us but i hope that ready correction comes from us here in france we don't need to be millions. we'll forceful i don't know what actions we release animals from the stables and rescue them from slaughter. stevens consume is deeply shocked that he is a butcher was targeted by these activists. related worship or was it my trade is my
9:35 am
entire life if a customer comes back and tells me that the meat was particularly good then i'm really happy it's great i'm at a loss for words but we stop at north of. the existence of butchers like assume it is completely irrelevant to activists just because starting in view of the suffering of animals he says the profession is trivial. limits professional set of morally unacceptable must disappear there are no more executioners either there were no longer needed and a profession disappeared in spite of. moderates and the rights activists in france are suspicious of such radicalism to get got here has been fighting for animal welfare for years she doesn't believe that violent action will be successful. when you throw stones at butcher shops it's suddenly all about whether you are allowed to eat meat or not. the question of how the animals are actually treated is
9:36 am

9:44 am
a role model because he managed to achieve all those things i want to do he's an inspiration. robin meets his former mentor she's from a private foundation called studio on campus that helps some 1300 youngsters from working class families graduated from high school and adopted to university life because in germany these kids don't enjoy the same educational opportunities others do. i think a lot still needs to improve when it comes to equality of opportunity and education . today a person social background still largely determines that person's opportunities in life and what kind of education they get i think a lot of potential is left untapped in this way. katherine philip mentor robin during his final stages in high school and the 1st year at university that's
9:45 am
important because studies show that students from nonacademic parents are far less likely to pursue a doctorate. in germany a person's background still largely determines that person's life chances and crew prospects more so than in most other european countries. today robbins back at his old school talking to 10th graders. they'll be deciding soon whether to remain in school to qualify for uni or to learn a trade. up many of my friends from around that decision difficult to normal. why not they all managed to achieve something as nothing let me tell you about it. mr herder that's here. he tells the students that 19 of his former classmates went on to learn a trade ideas for earned a technical diploma and only human serve got a high school diploma. it's interesting i'm interested in medicine and that's why
