    not really. Spoken directly to a couple of people looking for asylum, and I don't think they are what you seem to think they are.

    The ones that I talked to simply don't have any meaningful employment in their country. They really really want to come work to support their families.

    The guys who built my house from central america, and the african that is preparing to risk his life to journey to Europe.

    "My responsibility is that the country is not blocked nor weakened," Macron said in a presidential statement late on Monday, calling on "all political leaders to rise to the occasion by demonstrating a spirit of responsibility."

    tl;dr

    Fascists win the preliminary vote.

    Leftists unite and beat both fascists and Macronists in the second round of voting.

    Macron refuses to seat the victorious coalition.

    > "Some 3,566 people were deported in the first three months of 2023. In 2024, that number had climbed to 4,791, an increase of 34%.

    Despite that, according to government records seen by the paper, some 7,048 planned deportations did not take place.

    Legal limbo
    As of December 2023, there were 242,600 people in Germany slated for deportation. Sixty percent of them are rejected asylum seekers."


    let's import more into Europe

    the losing party got most of the ministers

    - Foreign Minister: Jean-Noël Barrot, long-time Macron ally and Minister for Europe in the previous government
    - Minister for Europe: Benjamin Haddad, former spokesperson for Macron's party
    - Minister of education: Anne Genetet, former Senator of Macron's party (she spent her entire political career on Macron's side)
    - Minister of defense: Sébastien Lecornu. No change: he was already minister of defense in the previous government...
    - Minister of energy and climate transition: Agnès Pannier-Runacher. She too was already in the previous government as minister for agriculture.
    - Minister of culture: Rachida Dati. Again, no change: she was already minister of culture in the previous government.
    - Finance and economy minister: Antoine Armand. Another long-time Macron ally, he headed the committee for the candidacy of Macron during the 2022 presidential campaign.
    - Minister of industry: Marc Ferracci. This is perhaps the most egregious: he was literally Macron's best man at his wedding.
    - Minister of Civil Service: Guillaume Kasbarian. He too was already in the previous government as minister for housing.
    - Minister of the budget: Laurent Saint-Martin, another long-time Macron ally who in the previous government headed the "Business France" agency.
    - Minister for tourism: Marina Ferrari. She was secretary of state for digital affairs in the previous government.
    - Spokesperson for the government: Maud Bregeon, she was a MP from Macron's party prior to her appointment.

    France’s Marine Le Pen questioned in court at EU embezzlement trial

    French far-right leader Marine Le Pen has strongly denied committing any wrongdoing at a Paris court as she and her National Rally (RN) party stand trial over the suspected embezzlement of European Parliament funds.

    The nine-week trial is a critical juncture for Le Pen, expected to be a strong contender in France’s next presidential election in 2027. A guilty verdict could significantly affect her political career and aspirations.

    Le Pen, 56, took to the stand on Monday in the first of three expected days of testimony in the trial, which comes almost a decade after initial investigations began.

    The European Parliament has estimated the damage from the alleged crimes to be 3.5 million euros ($3.8m).

    Le Pen, the RN itself, and 24 others – including party officials, employees, and former lawmakers – have all been accused of using European Parliament money to pay staff in France.

    The alleged fake jobs system that triggered the trial was first flagged in 2015 and covers parliamentary assistant contracts between 2004 and 2016.

    Prosecutors say the assistants worked solely for the party outside parliament. Many could not describe their day-to-day work, and some never met their supposed MEP boss.

    A bodyguard, a secretary, Le Pen’s chief of staff and a graphic designer were all allegedly hired under false pretenses.

    If Le Pen and her co-defendants are found guilty, they could face up to 10 years in prison and fines of up to one million euros ($1.1m) each.

    A guilty verdict could also result in penalties including a loss of civil rights or ineligibility to run for office, which would affect Le Pen’s goal of becoming France’s president in the 2027 election.

    The trial is scheduled to last until November 27.
