It’s quite possible that some of our readers in France were caught up in the appalling events of Friday 13, almost certain that some of them knew someone who had been.
On these occasions, of course, you feel relieved if your friends and family have escaped and guilty because you know that means others have not.
France, like any former colonial power, including the UK, has a history and if there’s one thing history teaches us, it’s that you can’t escape from it.
We salute our French friends and all those around the world who are standing with them.
Thanks for this Stephen & MAA. x Ogilvy Paris
