French far-right leader, Le Pen, banned from politics for five years

There is one person who many think will be taken off the reserve bench to take her place as a candidate, and that is Jordan Bardell. Just 29 years old, he is actually the leader of the National Rally Party. He is considered very charismatic, a good speaker.

But there are question marks about whether someone who is just 29 years old really has the experience to take on the role of being a presidential candidate and indeed to become the president of France.

One thing I should mention though is that last year Jordan Bardell was seen as taking a bit of a swipe at Marine Le Pen when he said it was a bare minimum for a politician that they should not have a criminal record. Some of his allies then accused him of behaving like a Judas. Now today Mr. Bardel has dutifully condemned the verdict of the court. He said French democracy had been killed.

Well, inside France, you know, obviously the other far right figures are furious. I should mention Eric Zemmour from the Reconquest Party, who also said it wasn't for judges to decide who people vote for. There are plenty of people who are not political allies of Marine Le Pen, but who are uneasy about the idea of her not being able to stand.

I mean, it's interesting that Eric Chiotti from the centre-right politician said, the destiny of our nation has been confiscated by an outrageous judicial cabal. People are uneasy about what's happening. Outside France, I think there has been a lot of interest in this, partly because there are political allies of Marine Le Pen who are angry.

Sudanese military accused of carrying out massacre in Darfur

Most of us drive a car and most of us at some time have to get our tyres changed. Off with the old, on with the new. And then we get the bill, which includes a small charge for our tyres to be disposed of safely and recycled. Waste tyres are supposed to be shredded, then used for things like surfacing horse arenas and children's playgrounds.

But the BBC has discovered that around half of waste tyres in the UK are squashed into tightly bound rectangles called bales. It's more profitable to do this and then ship them abroad. Together with journalists from an organisation called Source Material, we teamed up with an industry insider who fitted trackers to end-of-life tyres to see where they ended up.
