It could be that they were squibs, and not French. But Dean Thomas came to Hogwarts from the mudblood camps because someone realised he had a proper wizard father, and the seventh years didn't try to make HIS life horrid (Professor Carrow did, and maybe that helped him, in a way, because EVERYONE hated Professor Carrow. Even the other professors hated him.)
To a certain extent the professors here let everyone get on with it, you know, we're not really expected to run to them for every little thing but when it's so mismatched they would put a stop to it, surely, if it were Hogwarts students.
And yes, robes are a daft thing to row over, but they weren't really rowing over robes, you know, they were rowing over the fact that Ron's family has almost no money, and Finnigan's foster-father has loads, but Finnigan doesn't get to live with his parents on holidays (or even have contact with them) and Ron sees his parents all the time. Finnigan wants to believe that being rich makes up for not being a pureblood and so he's cruel to Ron about Ron not having any money.
Do you think you can persuade Justin to stay near JP? Do you think it would help? Unfortunately I don't know how much of a match Justin and JP together are if Toubon and Coty came after them together.
Those roses Justin sent you were really lovely, by the way, I noticed them when they came at breakfast.
