Buses with migrants and homeless people on board arrived in Orléans from Paris, which provoked an outburst from the mayor.
Tuesday March 26, on the outskirts of Orléans (Loiret), 26 homeless people and migrants arrived from Île-de-France in buses chartered by the State due to saturation of emergency accommodation. Were they moved for the Olympic Games? Serge Grouard, various right-wing mayor of Orléans, deplores not having been associated with it. He describes the arrival of a bus “approximately every three weeks” since May 2023, without confirming whether or not this is linked to the Olympic Games.
519 people welcomed in Orléans
A hotel serves as a regional airlock for three weeks. 519 people were welcomed there in ten months. The prefecture refutes the idea of a “clean place” in Paris with a view to the Olympic Games. The associations denounce a short-term policy. Like Orléans, 10 cities across France have been designated to welcome homeless people from Île-de-France.
