“Return to Africa”: a racist tag on a bar in Toulouse before the arrival of the deputy Nupes Carlos Bilongo
A bar where Nupes deputy Carlos Martens Bilongo and parliamentarians from Haute-Garonne had to host a public meeting was tagged.
Racist tags were written on the facade of a bar in Toulouse, this Friday, on the eve of the trip to the Pink City of Carlos Martens Bilongo, Nupes deputy from Val d’Oise. This is the parliamentarian who had been taken to task in the National Assembly by a deputy from the National Rally. The latter had launched “Let him (s) return (nt) to Africa”, without specifying whether he was referring to Carlos Martens Bilongo, black, or to the migrant boats crossing the Mediterranean.
