1/5 Dans Barbès Blues, Hajer Ben Boubaker a voulu "rendre compte de la formation d'un écosystème : comment un marché de la consommation [les nombreux disquaires du quartier Barbès, près du magasin Tati] se constitue à la marge de l'industrie musical du pays qui le voit naître. Il a fallu pour cela qu'une notabilité maghrébine faite de commerçants se crée une place spécifique au sein de sa communauté. Il s'agit aussi là d'une légitime réhabilitation.

#UK #Brexit #Immigration: "When Brexit became real, millions of Europeans resident in the UK were shoved into the same position: arrived legally, needing no documentation, but in future required to prove their status. This time, the UK issued them documents confirming their status as permanently settled.

Until December 31, 2024, when all those documents with no expiration date will abruptly expire because the Home Office has a new system that is entirely online. As ORG and the3million explain it, come January 1, 2025, about 4 million people will need online accounts to access the new system, which generates a code to give the bank or landlord temporary access to their status. The new system will apparently hit a variety of databases in real time to perform live checks.

Now, I get that the UK government doesn’t want anyone to be in the country for one second longer than they’re entitled to. But we don’t even have to say, “What could possibly go wrong?” because we already *know* what *has* gone wrong for the Windrush generation. Anyone who has to prove their status off the cuff in time-sensitive situations really needs proof they can show when the system fails.

A proposal like this can only come from an irrational belief in the perfection – or at least, perfectability – of computer systems. It assumes that Internet connections won’t be interrupted, that databases will return accurate information, and that everyone involved will have the necessary devices and digital literacy to operate it. Even without ORG’s and the3million’s analysis, these are bonkers things to believe – and they are made worse by a helpline that is only available during the UK work day."

Si on m'avait dit un jour qu'on verrait Jacques Toubon manifester notamment avec les communistes (Roussel) et la CGT (Sophie Binet) contre une loi immigration... C'est dire le rejet que suscite ce texte dans le camp républicain (photo: Edwy Plenel/Twitter X)
