Le Figaro Nice
They are now three deputies.
Of the nine constituencies of the Alpes-Maritimes, three were conquered by the National Rally in June 2022. Lionel Tivoli (2nd), Alexandra Masson (4th) and Bryan Masson (6th) occupy prime places to parasitize one of the rare Republican bases of resistance.
They take the opportunity to assert themselves on the theme of immigration, central in a department under tension with massive arrivals in recent weeks.
And thus stand out from the positions of Eric Ciotti.
For this, they invited their boss, Jordan Bardella, on Wednesday, before his departure for Hungary on Thursday.
“They want to recover this subject because they know that it is carrier on the national level”
, mocks a faithful from LR.
The RN delegation visited the administrative detention center of Nice, at the Auvare barracks, before going to the two border posts of Menton, a constituency under the flag of the party to the flame, Alexandra Masson having beaten Alexandra Valetta-Ardisson (LREM) .
An ideal ground to reaffirm firm positions on immigration and the case of unaccompanied minors.

The immigration figures are those of tomorrow's insecurity and the crime figures of today are those of yesterday's immigration.

Even if some confusion on the procedures could have been made during the guided visit of the CRA with the commissioner of the PAF (police at the borders), Jordan Bardella hammered home his proposal "of a referendum on immigration the next day when
the RN will come to power in 2027
.
He takes no tweezers to establish a link on the security aspect, alerting the people of Menton:
"The immigration figures are those of tomorrow's insecurity and the delinquency figures of today are those of the immigration of yesterday”
, he assumed.
Last week, Éric Ciotti also mentioned the wish for a referendum on the subject.
“It is now the only solution”
, explained the president of the Republicans but also a deputy from Nice.
“There is no less reliable today in French political life than an LR
, had fun Jordan Bardella under the Riviera sun.
What is more when Mr. Ciotti refuses to vote for a motion of censure, proof that he shares the orientations of the government.
"Eric Ciotti is overwhelmed, his compass is no longer on the right
," added Bryan Masson.
Before being completed by his colleague Lionel Tivoli:
“LR adopts double language.
In the Assembly, they must be expelled.
Here, he subsidizes associations to accommodate them because we know that with Charles-Ange Ginésy
(the president of the Department, editor's note)
, they are one
, "he alluded to in reference to unaccompanied minors housed in a Campanile hotel in Châteauneuf-Grasse.
These neo-parliamentarians no longer hide their desire to send signals, as with the arrival of Jordan Bardella, to establish themselves permanently in the department.
“Insufficient and derisory” reinforcement
On the subject of unaccompanied minors, Jordan Bardella wants to reverse the paradigm of the current law.
“Today, the principle of minority takes precedence.
It must be that of the majority and that it is up to them to prove their minority
, ”he thinks.
According to him, few people are really under the age of 18.
"They are no more minor than I am an archbishop
," he says.
UAMs cost the public taxpayer too much money.
I am for distributing them... in their country of origin
!”
Faced with the observation of an ongoing migration crisis in the Alpes-Maritimes (nearly 1,900 support counted by the Maralpine Department), the Prime Minister, Élisabeth Borne, announced last Wednesday a reinforcement of 150 police and gendarmes to monitor the Menton borders.
These squadrons arrived on Wednesday.
“It is insufficient and ridiculous
, judged the president of the National Assembly, who was told that 100 to 200 migrants per day were arrested.
This subject does not interest the government
!”
He did not fail to respond to Gérald Darmanin's attack on Marine Le Pen, whom he had called
"a little politician"
while portraying
"a lazy party"
.
“Mr. Darmanin is a small Minister of the Interior
, he replied.
His pitiful record should call him to more humility.
The reality is that he has neither the shoulders nor the build, which surely explains this annoyance.
When Eric Ciotti flew to Morocco to discuss diplomatic relations with France, Jordan Bardella came to his land and on a common favorite subject.
"We must engage in a diplomatic showdown with the countries that refuse to take back their illegal immigrants
," he said.
At the Nice CRA, where the 35 places are occupied all year round, the nationalities are essentially Tunisian, Algerian and Moroccan.
The legal deadline for sending them back to their country is 90 days.
“Indispensable”
to carry out investigations and consular proceedings according to the police commissioner;
“too long”
for the boss of the RN, who wishes to shorten them since according to him
“everything is done to lengthen them”
.
“France should not be a hostess for migrants
,” he concluded.
