France watches closely as British MPs vote on Syria airstrikes

A vote for Britain to join airstrikes against Islamic State in Syria would be hailed a major political success in Paris and a diplomatic boost for the French president, François Hollande.
After last month’s Paris terrorist atrocity killed 130 people in the biggest attack on French soil since the second world war, Hollande had set off on a gruelling diplomatic world tour to shore up a new international coalition for strikes in Syria.
