Description
A ‘bronze medal’ for Emmanuel Macron, a 'gold medal' for social whitewashing for the Prefect of the Ile-de-France region Marc Guillaume, a 'silver medal for social cleansing' for the former Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin: “Le revers de la médaille” (The other side of the medal) collective is organising its "closing ceremony of the Olympics" in the form of an assessment, with the Olympic rings and the Eiffel Tower in the background.
At least ‘260 informal living areas’ (camps, shanty towns, squats, etc.) were evacuated and more than 19,000 people were evicted in the Paris Region between April 2023 and September 2024, in the run-up to and during the Paris Olympics, according to a ‘social’ report drawn up on Monday by a number of associations.
