🇫🇷 Macron says «half of the delinquent acts in Paris come from foreigners»: its actually more

👉🏻 After the debacle of the Lola affaire involving an illegal Algerian woman, Emmanuel Macron was brought to expand on the link between immigration and crime during a TV interview, were he explained that «we can't ignore the fact that at least half of the delinquent acts we observe come from people who are foreigners».

🔎 The words of the head of state were partially corroborated by the latest official figures, which shows that 48% of suspects for delinquencies in Paris (for attacks on property and people) are foreigners.

📊 But for certain crimes, the prevalence is even more impressive: 70.4% of robberies with violence and 75.6% of simple thefts are committed by foreigners in Paris. And the figure is almost as high for the outer suburbs: all offenses combined, the proportion of foreigners implicated is 41%, while it is 57.8% in robberies committed with violence and 65.1% in simple theft.

🤪 However, the French president refused to establish an "existential link between immigration and insecurity". Macron's plan to fight against this phenomenon will therefore be to "integrate" more quickly those who "have a vocation to stay" and to "simplify" the expulsion of others.

The Muslim community in France accuse authorities of ‘Islamophobia’ as they say the state is attempting to ‘further restrict’ their religious rights.

The accusations come after some French schools banned religious clothing - abaya and qamis - from being worn to schools.

I want to tell you about tomorrow's weapon
Birthed by the world, it will be the end of it
I want to tell you, about me, about you

I see inside images, colors
That aren't mine, that sometimes scare me
Sensations that can drive me crazy

The human bomb, you hold it in your hand
You have the detonator right next to your heart
The human bomb, its you, you own it
If you let someone take over your fate
Its the end

👉🏻 Gaël Giraud is an economist, a Jesuit priest, a specialist in mathematical economics and the current Head of Research at the CNRS. Last week, he was a guest on Thinkerview, an influential Youtube channel renowned for their in-depth interviews.

🗣 On the subject of the current French head of state, he explained that Macron «is carrying out a program dictated to him by others, notably David de Rothschild, and this program is the privatization of the world, and the destruction of the social state»

🔎 Soon after, Mr. Giraud issued an apology letter on twitter to the LICRA: «I am aware that my words could be misused to feed nauseating anti-Semitic fantasies [...] I do not believe that Mr. Macron's program is secretly dictated by the political agenda of one man or one community»

France trying desperately to restart nuclear reactors, but labor union strike delaying maintenace!

France generates roughly 70% of its electricity from a nuclear fleet of 56 reactors, all operated by EDF. However, many of them have been closed down for maintenance, some due to corrosion-related issues. Currently, only 31 units are reportedly operating. EDF has pledged to restart all shutdown reactors before winter to avoid power shortages in the country.

However, since October 6, there have been strikes among EDF employees involved in repair work at 19 reactors, delaying maintenance by several weeks.

Last month, the French national electricity grid operator RTE warned that it would not rule out the risk of blackouts this winter due to prolonged strikes halting the repair.

[this announcement, as it is revealed that UK was running drills about managing extended blackouts and resulting crises … it is clear what is planned for the #EnergyCrisis]

🇫🇷🌍 1 in 4 prisoners in France is of foreign nationality

👉🏻 As of the data from July 1, out of 72,020 prisoners, the prison administration counted 53,952 French nationals and 18,068 foreign prisoners.

🏆 At the top of the list of nationalities most represented in detention are those from North Africa, with 3974 Algerians, 2093 Moroccans and 1254 Tunisians. If these last two figures are stable, the number of Algerians is in clear progression compared to 2021: they were then 2750 inside French jails.

📊 The entire Algerian community in France (569,000 nationals) commit 5 times more delinquency than the Portuguese community, which is almost as numerous and has 497 prisoners.
