Re: Unstoppable migration?
 
I see Austria's migrant welcome has turned a bit frosty with troops now being mobilised to prevent them crossing into the country from Italy. Wasn't that long ago that Austria was being lauded by some around here as some sort of role model for migrant welfare...

The Austrian military is preparing to stop migrants coming from Italy amid sharpening rhetoric ahead of elections.
Seven hundred and fifty soldiers, including Pandur armoured vehicles, stand ready to go to the Austrian-Italian border at 72 hours notice, Austria’s defence minister, Hanspeter Doskozil, told the Kronen Zeitung newspaper, an Austrian daily, on Monday (3 July).

Yes, and they are also free to make the decision not to participate in target practice.

More foreign workers isn't the answer in the construction industry and will only serve to create a larger issue when they all leave in the future. Apart from the usual knuckle dragger groups i haven't heard a single person talking about shutting our borders and not allowing anyone in that's absolutely stupid we of course need skilled people coming in to fill shortages granted I'd prefer it to run alongside proper effective training schemes to train our own citizens to do the jobs but you can't have everything in life.

We have allowed ridiculous levels of immigration into the UK in the last 20 years numbers we won't be able to adequately support for decades and we have to get the figures back to a semblence of reality ideally without another labour government to run another social experiment and i think they got off light over that whole incident.

Agreed. We should only be allowing in those who have the skills we need but which are in short supply in the UK, together with those who legitimately want to study here on the understanding that they will return at the end of their studies if they don't fit into our skills shortage immigration policy.

This, together with a good training strategy for our own citizens, will keep control of immigration and relieve the overwhelming pressure on housing and public services.

A new vessel will shortly join the flotilla looking for migrants in the choppy waters of the Mediterranean.

Yet the Suunta — a ship crowdfunded by shadowy far-right group Generazione Identitaria — is clearly not on a mercy mission.
The extremists’ firebrand Italian leader, Lorenza Fiato, 23, says: “Migrants breed like rabbits. They literally replace the native population in some neighbourhoods. We are being replaced in our own cities.”

Generazione Identitaria — known as the Identitarians — says it wants to preserve Europe’s national identities against a migrant “invasion”.

Already steaming towards Sicily, the Suunat will later this month attempt to turn back the flimsy dinghies laden with *people escaping poverty and conflict in Libya.

A bit different to the migrant ferry service laid on by misguided charities.

Entirely predictable except in the world occupied by those who can't see beyond the ends of their noses. This situation is already a humanitarian disaster and something decisive needs to be done before it gets really nasty. I wonder how many emergency meetings the EU have had now...

Europe is "underestimating" the scale and severity of the migration crisis and "millions of Africans" will flood the continent in the next five years unless urgent action is taken, a senior European official has warned.

The dire prediction from Antonio Tajani, president of the European Parliament, came as Paris evacuated almost 3,000 migrants sleeping rough from a makeshift camp near the city centre - the 34th such evacuation in two years.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017...arns-european/

Can anyone seriously deny this? By welcoming migrants of all types (the minority actually genuine refugees) Europe has opened floodgates it's going to find very hard to close. The politicians can't keep fudging this issue.
