@thealiceroberts: People are awesome. The ‘Spiderman of the 18th’, Mamoudou Gassama, is more awesome than most.
@doctor_oxford: Wonderful news. President Macron just made hero, Mamoudou Gassama, a French citizen. If he lived here, no doubt @theresa_ may would be hunting for any excuse to deport him. #Windrush #Hostileenvironment
@Shehusani: The ‘Spiderman’ who saved a child in Paris met French President Macron, the courageous people who recently stopped a suicide bomber are yet to meet a Councillor. This is an indictment on us.
@srslade: This France balcony rescue Spiderman then meeting French President and given citizenship has to be the biggest set up I’ve ever seen!
