Nude swimmers on the French Riviera join the protests against the King of Saudi Arabia
The Daily Mail ^ | 26 July 2015 | PETER ALLEN

Despite the ongoing protests, the authorities have allowed the beach to be shut off because of 'security concerns', according to a spokesman for the local prefecture.

King Salman arrived in a convoy of armoured Mercedes limousines accompanied by motorbike outriders after touching down by private Boeing 747 at nearby Nice airport yesterday.

Genevieve Delemer, another local who has signed the petition, said: 'It's an outrage. You can't just build things like that on a public beach. Who do they think they are?'

The online petition against such luxury excess reads: 'This beach, like any other public maritime domain, should be available for everyone, including residents, tourists, French people and foreigners.'

It calls on the prefecture and France's Socialist government to 'recognise the unanimous wave of indignation' and to reverse its decision to privatise the beach.

Jean-Noel Falcou, who had launched the petition, said: 'We cannot accept that there is one law for the rich and powerful and one law for everyone else'.

Is this one of those good naked/bad naked things?

Most “nakeds” are pretty bad.

Yes it is. This thread screams, “This thread is useless without pictures” which will inevitably be followed by “My eyes, my eyes”.

But when it’s good, it’s generally really good.

I’m guessing the long-standing FR rules are suspended under these circumstances.

RATS!

it calls on the prefecture and France's Socialist government to 'recognise the unanimous wave of indignation' and to reverse its decision to privatise the beach.

"Unanimous wave"?? Is this about 'democracy' again?

"Socialist"?? -- not when it brings in massive $$$$ or should I say €€€€ much faster than any 'privatised' equivalent can in such a short timeframe.

AND, the 'privatized sector' would do the same on a beach to eat up the profit, Selectively.

Besides & anyway, who would be the competitor in the private sector to match the Saudis in this regard?? - ça suffit de plaintes.

France has the largest Muslim population in Europe.

ISIS: So I was just wondering what ISIS Muslim followers in France thought about all those French people running around on the beaches with no clothes on. They can't be too happy.

Puritanical Muslims in ISIS might get so mad, they may end up shooting all those naked French people. just joking, I think.

SA doesn’t have enough sand and coastline to have its own beaches?

No offense, but you obviously have never been to a French beach: they are already topless to begin with, so naked isn’t a big reach and the only fat ones are British tourists.

Mind you, this "public beach" they are talking about looks to be not much more than 100-150 feet long. . .

On the French Riviera,"good naked" is the rule rather than the exception.
