New Caldeonia riots trigger state of emergency in territory as French police arrive | BBC News 

4 minutes but 10 seconds on why they are protesting.

Not even one valid question asked, as to why they are protesting the new rules

Its New Caledonia not New Caldeonia. This video was uploaded 2h ago and they didn't even bother to check if the title is correct.

Come on BBC, this is screaming out for context. Tell us why people are rioting. There was mention of it, but far too vague.

Nice typo in the title

Crazy that former colonizers like France and Britain still have colonies (territories) in this day and age!

"They are targeting buildings"??? What kind of weapons do they have in their possession?

France never learned from the algerian rebellion. Where's the liberty of kanak people?

France has broken their agreement with New Caledonia for their long term plan to independence.

Why on earth is France still controlling this land?

lets hear it for Caldeonia... BBC at its best

- Waving a white flag - Christian What could possibly go wrong?

Zelensky is preparing for what could be his last international stand-up comedy to be performed in Switzerland.

We need Peaceful and happy world for every one.

Olympic games in France must be Boycotted, just like Olympic games were Boycotted in USSR after the invasion into Afghanistan.

This what happens when we don't stand up for our rights ! Although I have a feeling there maybe local cultural issues to overcome I wish them well, as an islander myself, you don't want to be "overrun"

Give them what they want: give them full indepdence from France. But make it clear that they get no foreign aid from France, or Australia, or New Zealand, or anywhere else. Once they're under a corrupt Kanak government that casts them into poverty, just remind them that they wanted their independence.

Posted two days ago and you still haven't corrected the title...

typo alert

3:22 so you have now told everyone that there is a way in!

We can assume that Beijing is behind this. Viva le France!

You mean the Pacific Island invaded and colonised by France

Now this is a French territory. My friend Janet told me that the French were ruthless putting down a rebellion in the 1980s. (Watch out cocoa Joe?)

"No ones armed here so we have a white flag trying to persuade them not to come in" LMAO. The absolute state.

Give the indiginous peoples their land back then!

At 2:40, the good man announces “I’m a Christian.” How has he made it so easy and natural and refreshing to say so? It’s good that the BBC interviewer didn’t splutter a “You’re a what?” (as if to say, How bold you are!). There must be hope. “I’m a Christian” might catch on like “I’m Spartacus!” It’s time the West faced up to facts about what had made it and makes it great.

David looks allwhite, he'll be fine.

What are the new voting rules. Why not do the news.

One colonizer to another colonizer smh

You can tell the French that teasing me with overhyped Rolex watches isn’t going to work.

BBC you brought your repetition down during my childhood time love to listen BBC At that time no TV radio Ceylon telecast 3 languages English Tamil & Singhalese Sometimes not easy to get signals

why are the french there?

France losing their influence in Africa now in the Pacific, funny that they are blaming Azerbaijan looks like a price for interfering in other places

The Frech should leave this territory, it's absolutely crazy that these colonies exist in 2024

It shall never be well with the French Colonizers, ... Watch and see

Why should France still colonise other countries ? Those people have the wrigh to defend themselves from French colonialism..

Hopefully a majority of New Caledonia indigenous population wish to remain french… the rioters are not representing the Island population and 3 referendums wish to remain french. Decolonization would be a disaster as it wouldn’t reflect the democratic choice .

China has done this!

Why is it called Caledonia? The Latin name for Scotland.

May New Caledonia be given independence free free Caledonia

Can't spell Caledonia.

Free new Caledonia

Yes, we have a white flag in front to show we are nor armed and I’m a Christian so we have nothing to worry about. What’s not love about this plan.

Nouvelle-Calédonie sans la France n'est pas viable La France sans la Nouvelle-Calédonie n'est pas viable non plus Si le gouvernement persiste dans son erreur le résultat sera la même chose qui s'est passé avec les pays africains francophones d'aujourd'hui ou la grande majorité de la population n'a pas pu avoir accès au développement et la Français a été dégagé La Nouvelle-Calédonie n'est pas encore prête pour l'indépendance elle n'est pas capable de se défendre notamment militairement La France est un pays de caste elle ne doit pas exporter en dehors de la France hexagonale ça coutumes et sa mentalité La Nouvelle-Calédonie est un pays de tradition et c'est tradition doivent être respecter Le gouvernement est responsable avec la droite locale radicalisé il tente une colonisation afin de garder la même mise sur le minerai et les réserves de pétrole et de gaz S'il doit y avoir un avenir politique ça sera entre les kanaks et les caldoches blanc descendants des bannières qui sont des accidentés de l'histoire Ce ne sont certainement pas c'est français du continent qui vient de l'Hexagone qui doivent donner leur point de vue aujourd'hui en sachant que la plupart viennent pour l'argent et non qu'un amour pour le pécunier au contraire de tous les autres dans la majorité qui aime ce pays par le cœur Le pays est divisé en deux provinces la province Nord les campagnes n'est pas assez développé Dans le sud autour de Nouméa les français hexagonaux se concentre dans les banlieues ils vivent entre eux ne se mélange pas il possède le pouvoir économique et militaire

Bring back The kingdom of Hawaii

Leave the colonies alone!

Tik Tok has been blocked, there is no further need for alarm!

The country of Human rights 🧐🤔

Colonisation is never ending

New Caledonia is about right size for Macron to invade it.

Give them independence

Today Caldeonia, Tomorrow Corsica ... Sunday Senegal and Monday rest of the Sahara ... France taste their own medicine. ..karma is a Bltch, right?

FREE CALDEONIA !

Caldeonia.... seriously!!!! Not a single f is given.... Push push push agenda no time for typos and fact-checking anymore.

Hiding the truth from the people via tik tok.

Enough suppression! EVERYONE has rights, and NO ONE IS SUPREME!

Typo!!

To the CON artists at the 'gud ole beeb', people see through your bias towards the LIARS, as does God...

Free new caledonia🇳🇨

Inb4 they fix the typo gang

BBC inept knows no bounds.

I love how this explains zero of why anything of this is happening and interviews a white Christian man. The BBC is beyond satirical. You absolute ghouls

POWERFUL POWERFUL WATCH HERE.. "THE MAN BEHIND THE MASK "?BY PROF WALTER VEITH POWERFUL POWERFUL WATCH TRUTH ALWAYS WINS GOD SEES EVERYTHING 👀 🙌 🙏 👏 ❤️ EVERYTHING AND STILL HE LOVES US SO MUCH ❤️

OT: Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations --WOR and WLVI!

41 minutes and inept BBC still cant read.

The Palestinians came to the land of the Jews in the Ottoman Empire as illegal immigrants

'Escaping state control' I mean now the first time that has happened to French colonies when France hasn't accepted the days of colonies is gone. At least the UK saw the writiing on the wall there and granted most of its Empire independence. Vietnam, Algeria, the African countries sick and tired of French interference, just let it go France.

Its a Colony ,france should pack up and go home

New Caledeoniainie

'Bans tik tiok....' Seems they are everywhere.

Angry youth, the Influence of Azerbaijan sowing discord - elder Kanak leaders have admitted that they have lost control. It's easier to loot and burn than find a peaceful solution. Many Kanak owned and operated businesses were also destroyed in the unrest. The majority of Kanaks found reasons such as COVID and sorry business for boycotting the 2023 referendum.

I'm sure David has no clue that's he's a colonial settler in a dying French empire. Pauvre David et ses amis. 😟

Make New Caledonia Native Again ✨️

freedom caledonia.france go home

French apardheid

I can bet my left arm that putler has something to do with that.

The New Caledonians should fight for a complete independence from parasitic French settlers and exploitive government in Paris. Les Calédoniens doivent se battre pour une indépendance totale vis-à-vis des colons français parasites et du gouvernement exploiteur de Paris.

How worried are the poor white people she ask

god is in control.......REALLY?

আমার একজন ভাতিজী অনেক অসুস্থ তাই কিছু সহযুগি তার প্রয়োজন এমন কেউ ভাই বোন আছেন নি 😢😢😢😢😢

The problem is Tic Tok and Deonia ?

This is not the age of colonialism. Why western countries are silent on this while they preach on others everywhere😂😂😂

FREE CALEDONIA

ahh yes, western values

As French we find it more and more difficult to manage our colonial empire whether in Africa, America or Asia.

Free new caledonia

French democrasy

Blocking TIK TOK 😅😂
