What's it like to be Muslim in France?
A French expat has told Radio 5 live that being a well-educated Muslim in France is "harder" than in the UK.
Muslim Rachida Benamar, originally from a town near Lyon, said that she has "many more opportunities" for employment in the UK than in France.
"I would probably get a job but it would be ten times harder for me than my French counterparts who have blonde hair and blue eyes".
She said the religious extremists who committed the terrorist attacks in Paris "do not have religion, they don't have any morals, they don't have any soul" and considers it an insult to call them Muslims.
