Duel sur la 5 : Quelle législation pour les étrangers en France ?

January 10, 1989 Guests on DUEL on the topic of immigration: Roland RAPPAPORT of the Movement Against Racism and for Friendship Between Peoples, and Bruno MEGRET, General Delegate of the National Front. This debate comes as the Pasqua Law, which allows prefects to expel illegal immigrants, has just been repealed. - Roland RAPPAPORT declares himself satisfied with this repeal: "Listening to Mr. PASQUA say that he had never failed to respect human rights, I think back to the expulsion of 101 Malians in October 1986." - MEGRET: "You are not here to defend human rights, your organization is part of the immigration lobby aiming to dissolve the national community (...) Your function is to cast anathema and call your opponents racists (...) You do not fight against all forms of racism, for example that which goes against the French in the areas of housing and employer contributions." He shows an AFPA brochure offering internships exclusively to immigrants. - RAPPAPORT interrupts him: "Do viewers know that today, people can be expelled without recourse to a lawyer? Should a 16-year-old minor living in France since birth be expelled without examination?" He shows an article from MINUTE entitled: "Always more immigrants." - MEGRET: "You are a supporter of the right to vote for immigrants in France. If there are more immigrants, there are more possibilities for conflict." - RAPPAPORT: "The borders were closed in 1974, there are no more immigrants than in 1974." - MEGRET reads a so-called AFP dispatch on illegal immigration. "There are between 10,000 and 1 million immigrants in France." - RAPPAPORT: "We must allow those who live in our country to live with dignity." - MEGRET: "Giving immigrants the right to vote is an Islamization of France." - The two men speak at the same time, BOURRET intervenes, but MEGRET reads a document without stopping while RAPPAPORT protests. - RAPPAPORT concludes by evoking the Revolution: "There were foreign deputies in the Constituent Assembly, Americans."
