David Amiel, Ensemble pour la République de Paris deputy, was the guest of “8h30 franceinfo”, Sunday November 3. He answered questions from Jean-Jérôme Bertolus and Benjamin Fontaine.

Housing tax: “It was a very unfair tax”

“There will be no return to housing tax on main residences”assured Saturday November 2, with the ParisianCatherine Vautrin, the Minister of Partnership with the Territories and Decentralization. David Amiel, who is for the abolition of the housing tax, reacted to this announcement by indicating that “it was a tax which was very unfair because it was very high in poor towns, in small towns on the outskirts of large metropolises and it was very low in rich towns which had many other resources”.

Limited traffic zone in Paris: “An elitist ecology”

On the eve of the entry into force of a limited traffic zone in the four arrondissements of Paris Center, David Amiel denounces a “elitist ecology”. From Monday, November 4, an area of ​​5.5 km² will no longer be authorized for traffic to motorists wishing to cross the heart of the capital. The MP Together for the Republic salutes overall “a good measure for the residents” of the first four arrondissements of Paris. But he considers that she is still “very incomplete and very partial”seeing there a device which “only interested in nice neighborhoods”. David Amiel fears that there will be, for example “a postponement of transit” on other outlying routes, such as the A86. The parliamentarian therefore calls on the municipality to “do not forget the inhabitants of the inner suburbs and the suburbs”.

Drug trafficking: “A risk of narcoterrorism”

While several shootings linked to drug trafficking have broken out in recent weeks in different cities in France, David Amiel, MP for Paris, denounces a “ultraviolence targeted against law enforcement and institutions that feeds on drug trafficking”. If the Minister of the Interior Bruno Retailleau denounced Friday November 1 in Rennes (Ille-et-Vilaine) the “mexicanisation” of the country, the parliamentarian Ensemble pour la République evokes a “risk of narcoterrorism”. He calls like this “Bruno Retailleau to take over the measures” prepared by the former Minister of Justice Éric Dupond-Moretti, “like the creation of a dedicated national prosecutor’s office”. The member for Paris also pleads for the creation of a “true status of the repentant to support those who help the police to dismantle drug trafficking networks”.
