A dangerous and poisonous law
They have all expressed their categorical rejection of a law that they consider to be such “a real springboard towards the nationalist ideology of the far right”describing his adoption as “betrayal of the solemn commitment made to the French” by Emmanuel Macron during his presidential campaign.
The signatories of the forum note that the immigration law, supported by the National Rally AND “without a real debate in Parliament”introduced the “xenophobic poison of national preference” and calls into question land rights, thus violating the fundamental principles of freedom, equality and fraternity claimed by the Republic.
They warn of the consequences of this legislation, invoking the law “hatred and division” Who “represents a serious threat to the fate of our fellow human beings, foreigners or immigrants, and therefore to the cohesion of our society”. Call Emmanuel Macron ” recover “, they ask the president not to promulgate this text “from all dangers”.
