The caravans broke into the town of Marignane in the Bouches-du-Rhône this Sunday, June 30, early in the afternoon. Damage, use of electricity and water from the town without authorization provoked the anger of the elected official who is also a brand new RN deputy-substitute.
While the municipality of Marignane was busy organizing the vote for the first round of the early legislative elections, this Sunday, June 30, and its mayor was going to be elected deputy-supplier of the RN Franck Allisio, that same evening, more than a hundred cars and caravans set up at the Bolmon stadium in the town.
An installation forced by the travelers who broke several gates to be able to enter the stadium, according to Eric Le Dissès, the mayor and brand new deputy-substitute.
From this aerial photo (published on the front page of this paper) taken this Monday, July 1st by the communications department of the mayor of Marignane, “There are about a hundred more caravans that have settled in“.
For the elected official, this installation has consequences on the finances of the municipality “ they connected to the electricity network, we had to bring it up to standard so that there would be no problems. It’s the height of irony to have to get people involved so that they can get electricity for free, and I have to make sure that there are no problems, otherwise I’ll be held responsible.”deplores the mayor.
They arrived and the first thing they did after they settled in was hook up to the water supply and wash all their caravans and cars.

A new installation that Mayor Eric Le Dissès says “to suffer and have no power to prevent it” and he also despairs of being able to only observe “This confirms that people do what they want, where they want, when they want, they are not sanctioned.”
The mayor of this commune in Bouches-du-Rhône, which does not have a reception area for travellers, is not at his first experience.
“Caravans have been coming for years, but the problem is that around the city they settle and become sedentary, like in the Paluns district,” specifies the mayor.
The RN deputy’s substitute also indicates that he has filed an interim order with the Aix-en-Provence court to request the departure of these travelers. According to him, “This will not be effective for two or three weeks, which will seriously damage the stadium pitch. “, Eric Le Dissès also fears”as usual, it’s going to be a pile of rubbish left behind after they leave that we’ll have to clean up“.
