Armando Curri, the best young apprentice, reported again with his photo

Armando Curri is France's best apprentice joiner and was due to receive his award at the Senate yesterday. But he is sans papiers having arrived in France from Albania 3 years ago as an unaccompanied minor. Now aged 19 he is obliged to leave France. The president of the Senate decreed that it was not appropriate to receive him in the Palais de Luxembourg. On reflection (and no doubt under pressure) that decision was reversed later in the day. Armando was cited as an example of how young immigrants should integrate - apprenticeships being an excellent way into work. So later in the day he took his place amongst the other meilleurs ouvriers receiving their awards. To cap what he describes as the best day of his life, the threat of expulsion was lifted as the prefect of Loire granted him a titre de sejour .

Val says I like the story of a young lad done good.
