From Presseurope conserning the deportation of 1000 gypsies (Roma) -

Le Monde goes on to compare the French President’s position with the one adopted by his predecessor, which was roundly criticised at the time –

"In the summer of 2010, a speech on the Roma delivered by Nicolas Sarkozy in Grenoble [in which he pledged to dismantle half of France’s illegal Roma camps] met with widespread indignation. However, today most left-wing figures have remained remarkably silent” on the issue."
For Le Monde, the feeble response is “in part” due to “political divisions in the government” and a hesitant civil society that is unsure how to react.

The polls are in. More than 50% of the left supports deporting the Roms (gypsies).
At the same time “hundreds of youths from underprivileged areas of Amiens” rioted, burning cars, pillaging a police station, and a community center.
No national origin specified, but as long as they’re not gypsies, they can stay in France and act at will.
What f’ing hypocrites!
