November 2016, the "jungle" of Calais, the largest shantytown in Europe, was evacuated. Five years later, the exiles on the road to Great Britain are still there and camps are regularly created between Calais and Grande-Synthe. The only new thing is that the police dismantle them every two to three days to avoid the creation of a new "jungle". A tried and tested method, despite the health crisis, which "works" in the eyes of the authorities, who again expelled hundreds of migrants from Grande-Synthe on Tuesday. But it does not make the exiles disappear. Five years after the "jungle", the situation has not changed so much. On the contrary, living conditions have further deteriorated and the generalization of passages and the ensuing dramas have multiplied. The state of affairs is appalling. The dialogue between the associations and the prefecture does not find its way, while the exiles are relentlessly chased, wherever they are. A precarious situation that does not facilitate the collection of testimonies, so great is the suspicion among the candidates for exile.
