Like any constitution, the French constitution was not written with a cultural invasion in mind. Originally designed to protect the French people, it is now being used against them. The French constitution will become completely useless once Sharia Law begins to take hold.
French court scraps large parts of hardline
immigration law as unconstitutional
France’s highest constitutional authority on Thursday rejected more than a third of the articles in a contentious immigration bill adopted under pressure from the right and far right.

The Constitutional Council ruling notably rejected measures in the bill toughening access to social benefits and family reunification, as well as the introduction of immigration quotas set by parliament.
It upheld much of the bill initially presented by President Emmanuel Macron’s government, but censured contentious additions made under pressure from the right and far right.
Among the measures rejected were those making it harder for immigrants to bring their families to France, and limiting their access to social welfare. The bill also strengthens France’s ability to deport foreigners considered undesirable.
Interior Minister Gerard Darmanin hailed the ruling.
“The Constitutional Council has approved all the government’s text,” he wrote on X, formally Twitter.
But Jordan Bardella, president of the far-right National Rally party, criticised what he said was a “coup by the judges, with the backing of the president”.
He called for a referendum on immigration as the “only solution”.
Despite the court dismissing the more hardline amendments, they could still be accepted at a later stage as part of different legislation.
Macron's 'gift' to the far right
Groups who see the law as contrary to French values — and as a gift to the increasingly influential far right — protested ahead of the ruling outside the Constitutional Council across from the Louvre Museum in central Paris. Other protests were also planned, and Paris police deployed special security measures for the day.
If the increasing influence and numbers of Musliims in France continues, French values will soon disappear for Sharia values. And, it will be the left-leaning, godless groups who will be to blame.
The demonstrators accused the government of caving into pressure from Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally party to get the law through parliament. About 75,000 people protested across France on Sunday over the legislation, urging Macron not to sign it into law.
The dispute comes amid tensions across Europe around migration and as anti-immigration parties on the far right are rising in popularity ahead of European Parliament elections in June.
Macron has moved increasingly to the right, notably on security and immigration issues, since rising to office on a pro-business, centrist platform.
Keep in mind, this is France24 and Agence France Press, both of which are far-left press.

Since nearly all the increase happened in the last 3 months of 2023, statistics for 2024 will likely quadruple again.
Anti-Semitic acts nearly quadrupled last year
in France, says Jewish organisation
Anti-Semitic acts in France nearly quadrupled in 2023 compared with the previous year, a Jewish organisation said Wednesday, reflecting a surge in discrimination since the October 7 attack by Hamas on Israel.

Citing figures from the French interior ministry and a French-Jewish security watchdog, the Council of Jewish Institutions in France (CRIF) said there were 1,676 anti-Semitic acts last year compared to 436 the year prior.
Nearly 60 percent of those acts were attacks involving physical violence, threatening words or menacing gestures, CRIF said in its report.
Worryingly, nearly 13 percent of anti-Semitic acts last year took place in schools, most of them in junior high schools.
"We are witnessing a rejuvenation of the perpetrators of anti-Semitic acts. Schools are no longer a sanctuary of the Republic," the report said.
The spike in anti-Semitism is the worst on record, according to CRIF, which has figures dating back to 2012.
The organisation cautioned that its tally reflects only acts "that have been the subject of a complaint or a report to the police".
France is home to Europe's largest Jewish community and the largest number of Muslims on the continent, although no precise figures are available as the country's census does not include religious identity.
According to CRIF, the bloodshed in the Middle East has unleashed a wave of anti-Semitic vitriol.
In the three months following Hamas' October 7 attack and Israel's subsequent invasion of Gaza, the number of anti-Semitic incidents "equalled that of the previous three years combined", according to the report.
A third of the acts glorified jihadism, according to CRIF, and a quarter were "calls to murder".
France has seen previous surges of anti-Semitism, including after a 2012 attack on a Jewish school in Toulouse and a 2015 attack on a kosher supermarket in Paris.
