The reform project that will be submitted to Parliament in early 2023 is ready. It is Le Figaro who has the first. Cross interview on two pages with the two ministers who carried the text: Gérald Darmanin at the Interior and Olivier Dussopt at Work. ” One is on the right, the other on the left, recalls the newspaper. The two interested parties prefer to speak of a balance of pragmatism… » Le Figaro summarizes: firmness on one side, humanity on the other… Or more exactly better integration of foreign workers.
Creation of a one-year residence permit for jobs under pressure
The Minister of Labor develops: this device would be “ accessible to foreigners present on the national territory for at least three years “. Second condition: have a professional seniority of at least eight months. Added to this are other prerequisites such as a master’s degree in minimal » of French, it is also up to the employer to support this learning of the language.
Le Figaro wonders: is it ” a massive regularization that does not say its name ? No, answer ministers Darmanin and Dussopt: it will be case by case “. And to counter the right-wing opposition which is already denouncing a ” call for air », the two members of the government insist on the other major aspect of this reform: firmness. Gérald Darmanin unrolls some of the 27 articles: article 9 for example, which aims to facilitate the expulsion of foreigners who do not respect the values of the Republic. Or even article 10, which will make the scope of application of the “OQTFs” more flexible, these obligations to leave French territory, at least for acts constituting a serious threat to public order.
” In short, deportation after prison “, summary Le Figaro. When the Minister of the Interior speaks of a ” double jeopardy “, which he assumes fully. ” So security on one side, humanitarian on the other. The bad guy against the good guy, that would be too simple “, writes in substance Guillaume Tabard. The editorialist believes that to convince public opinion, ” move the cursor to the right “. Conclusion of Figaro : the debate in Parliament promises to be lively…
A Christmas weekend that promises to be complicated in transport
” Disturbed weekend », title soberly West Francewhen The Parisian refers to him as travelers taken hostage “. In question: a strike at the SNCF came, as explained Release, of a collective of independent agents of the trade unions. ” There are thus several thousand employees talking to each other, organizing themselves on the Telegram or WhatsApp apps. » Release sees it ” a new form of social conflict “.

Her train cancelled, she could have taken another but the bill was 350 euros! ” For seven hours by train, it’s expensive “explains Fleur, who will finally fly to Italy by plane with a company low-cost.
In Sierra Leone, the ravages of “kush”
This survey of Release on ” kush, this drug that ravages youth in Sierra Leone and in neighboring countries such as Guinea. “Kush” is an artisanal mixture of cannabis and chemicals. Rémi Carton and Paul Boyer surveyed the slums of Freetown, where this drug has the most followers.
