End free schooling for children of illegal migrants, says Marine Le Pen

Far-right leader Marine Le Pen has said foreigners in France should go through a "waiting period" before benefiting from social services and that children whose parents are in the country illegally should not be allowed free schooling.

Ms Le Pen, a candidate in France's spring presidential election, took on a prickly subject during a walk through the Paris Christmas market on the Champs-Elysees Avenue.
