The evening is to be held on Friday, according to a letter from the mayor sent to the prosecutor on Friday, in “the right-wing identity bar” Le Mora. It is organized by an association of the same name, already identified for “White Men Only” type evenings (reserved for white men, editor’s note) according to the town hall.
The title of the evening “refers to a Nazi slogan and a recent song created in Germany by the Afd (far-right party, editor’s note) and propagated as an anthem of the European far-right“according to Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol who judges it”incompatible with the French Republic“.

“You have a ‘strangers out’ party, at 2am the guests leave drunk, what will happen afterwards?“, he asked. “Everyone must realize that our country is at this point, we can have massacres, violence, fights, it is proliferating, Gérald Darmanin must act immediately“.
In a press release published on its Instagram page on Saturday, the bar believes that welcoming “additional immigrants is not desirable” and “patriotic ideas are more and more popular among young Europeans, we will have to get used to it“. In this press release, the organizers invited Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol to this evening “Foreigners outside”, which according to them is “open to all“.
