French lawmakers are continuing their scrutiny of next year's budget as the country reels from days of violent unrest. What began as protests over the cost of living and conditions in schools has escalated into some of the worst rioting France has seen in years.Thousands of people have been arrested, businesses have been looted and buildings set alight. We hear why the boss of one of the world’s biggest airlines - Ryanair - predicts the cost of flights will increase by up to 20% next year. And the people of oil rich Alberta have decided whether to stick with Canada. Presenter: Leanna Byrne Producer: Craig Henderson Editor: Naomi Rainey
