France 'will change law' over gypsy expulsions
France said it would alter some of its laws following the storm over the government’s expulsions of Roma gypsies to countries in eastern Europe.
France, locked in a stand-off with the European Union over the expulsion of some of Europe’s poorest minorities, was given until midnight yesterday by the European Commission to fully implement the EU’s directive on freedom of movement across the 27-nation bloc or face legal action.
