Podcast: France's vaccine sceptics, compulsory national service, and Sarkozy to go on trial

France is the world's most vaccine-sceptic nation. How did that happen? Also, a pilot of Macron's Universal National Service to replace the military service: enthusiastic teenagers join, but not everyone shares their excitement. Plus, France prepares to put a former president in the docks, for the first time. And the story of the last public execution in France, in 1939.

 

In this episode:

- Volunteers with France's new Universal national service
