paris went into e—scooters before other cities, and when paris went in, the operators were able to say what a great thing it is, "now you should do the same." well, now paris is leading the way out of them, and the great fear for the operators must be that it sets a trend in the other direction now as well. just a day after being discharged from hospital, pope francis has led palm sunday mass in st peter's square, at the start of one of the busiest weeks in the christian calendar. 0ur europe correspondent, jenny hill, reports. there was a determination about pope francis this morning, a desire, perhaps, to get back to work. but just a day after he left hospital, he cut a rather frail figure. his voice at times rather hoarse as he led the palm sunday mass. translation: | thank- you forjoining me and also for your prayers, which intensified in recent days. i truly thank you. applause for worshippers here, a prayer answered. it's the most important time of the church year. and pope francis is now expected to preside over a gruelling schedule of easter services. but his hospital stay has i

no, the forces of the surrender of paris instilled horror and despair in the hearts of the french. the french government fled the capital, declaring paris an open city, crowds of citizens rushed south from it. from a city of five million having abandoned all their property, 3 million inhabitants fled, the children left their elderly parents. doctors abandoned the patients who remained in hospitals to the mercy of fate. the metropolitan train stations were overcrowded soon the trains stopped running , the writer victor serge was an eyewitness of this biblical exodus, he recalled that the end of paris is the end of the world, such cars, covered and overloaded with suitcases, do not fit in the head. leaving through the southern outpost shops are closing collapsed empty and old europe happened what should have been happen we lived in a stuffy cul-de-sac. it seems that for many years france was in power. decay has already gone too far the french. they remembered what happened in the first world war, so when they learned that the germans were advancing, they took off and went south, and

we couldn't do that in paris, for instance. no, we suffered a lot in paris. the roof of that food that we didn't have. even when you had your ration, sometimes you just went to the store and there just was nothing left it with nothing. so that went on for quite a while. but you were much better off in the in in the country. absolutely. and christophe referenced colette, maureen, catherine, who was a friend of the museums and meets with our groups in normandy, our school groups, our students. there was a question here in, the center aisle in the green jacket jacket and i call i can see your very high energy action oriented person, which i think would be really good for a resistance worker. but you also mentioned fact that you were very young. and so most the time you thought you were immortal. was that true of most of the resistance you encountered? were they young and bold? i think it was true of the younger men. you know, the 17, the 18, 19 actor that they got a little more they got a little more knowledge about life. so they didn't quite feel that way. but

hugh schofield there in paris. thanks very much. well, - paris. thanks very much.nversation to bring you that latest news about uk nurses, and the vote they are. but antoine, just as i was reporting on talking they are to hugh schofield, our man on the ground, it is pretty clear that emmanuel macron wants to get this onto the statute books very quickly. we have heard from at least one of the union leader saying the fight continues. so, with previous presidents, this has been attempted before and it has been defeated before. 0n the streets. so, that is presumably the next major dynamic. yeah, i think it's really clear that emmanuel macron wants to move forward. and wants to go to another subject. but the main problem that at parliament colour when he tried the pension reform, the right wing party, it didn't work. and so it was forced to go through a special precedent without voting in the parliament, so it will be really complicated for emmanuel macron during the following weeks of his mandate. and i can't see the strikes in the streets going to a victory, because t
