France · National Assembly · 8 September 2026
M. Nicolas Meizonnet attire l'attention de M. le ministre de l'intérieur sur les importantes disparités constatées dans l'accès à l'emploi des populations immigrées en France et sur leur éventuelle prise en compte dans la définition de la politique migratoire. Les données disponibles mettent en évidence un taux d'emploi sensiblement inférieur parmi les immigrés par rapport au reste de la population, avec toutefois de fortes disparités selon les nationalités d'origine. Parmi les personnes âgées de plus de 15 ans, hors étudiants et retraités, le niveau d'emploi atteint ainsi près de 82 % pour les personnes nées de nationalité portugaise, contre environ 80 % pour les Français de naissance, tandis qu'il se situe autour de 51 % pour certaines autres nationalités. Chez les 25-54 ans, les personnes nées avec une nationalité du Maghreb présentent également un niveau d'emploi inférieur d'environ 20 points à celui des Français de naissance. Ces écarts interrogent l'adéquation entre les flux migratoires accueillis en France et les besoins économiques du pays, alors que l'insertion professionnelle et l'autonomie économique constituent des éléments essentiels d'une intégration réussie. Dans ce contexte, il lui demande si le Gouvernement entend davantage prendre en compte les différences constatées en matière d'emploi et d'insertion professionnelle selon les nationalités dans la définition de sa politique de visas et d'immigration. Il souhaite notamment savoir si ces données pourraient contribuer à adapter les flux d'immigration légale aux besoins du marché du travail français et aux perspectives effectives d'insertion professionnelle des personnes accueillies.
United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 7 September 2026
We call on the Government to seek to negotiate and establish more third-country removal schemes and to automatically deport all foreign nationals who are convicted of criminal offences and anyone whose claim has been refused, without delay. The UK is under significant financial pressure with regards to housing, welfare support, the NHS, schooling and security costs for our country. We believe illegal immigration is fuelling these financial pressures and that it is now time we put UK residents and taxpayers first. We want to ensure our children and grandchildren are protected, and that our island nation is protected too.
