Not many news this week on Roma in France. Doesn’t really mean the expulsion policies are stopped, far from that. In the Lille region, in the North, several camps were closed. The press is now asking and what next? Maybe, they should have asked that before. Still in Lille, there seems to be progress on the integration of Roma, but the paper claims it is “complicated”. Activists are going to court against the expulsions of Roma EU citizen following the camp closures. Near Paris, the commune has finally relented and accepted to provide water to a Roma camp. Finally, In Nantes, Roma are going to court because of an expulsion that did not provide alternate lodgings.
