President Emmanuel Macron paused his unsuccessful attempts to mediate foreign crises for a while and appears to be making a serious effort to tackle mass migration in France.
That means, of course, enacting tough, no-nonsense measures that will inevitably be called ‘far-right’ in the liberal-leftist-Globalist MSM.
Macron is trying to rebound after a shock defeat in the National Assembly last week when his flagship immigration bill was dismissed by without a debate.
Now, a group of French lawmakers struck a tentative deal on a bill to significantly toughen immigration laws.
It is in many ways good news for Macron, because the migration bill is a key aspect of his second mandate.
“But it could also boost Marine Le Pen, who called the outcome ‘a great ideological victory’ for her far-right party – which the government denies. The conservative Les Republicains, who have over the years hardened their discourse closer to that of the far-right, also claimed victory.”
