Quite and what the grand EU pontificators fail to accept and/or acknowledge is that a) separating economic migrants from genuine refugees is very difficult and b) that large numbers of mainly young men who've finally gained entry to the EU and then been deemed economic migrants maybe years down the line aren't going to just pitch up at the airport and get on flights back home.
You simply can't expect such people who've struggled so hard to get here not to fight exceptionally hard to stay and in sufficient numbers they'd be well able to create a substantial amount of disorder in resisting any attempts to remove them. Aside from any disorder just how many legal actions and appeals would result and how many would be deemed by the ECHR or whoever to have established grounds for remaining in the EU despite their illegal origins. This has already been going on for years - it's not exactly unknown.
IMHO anyone who seeks to give the impression that the economic migrants can/will be removed is at best naïve and worst thoroughly disingenuous. They know full well that millions of people will be allowed to remain in the EU in one way or another and many will be economic migrants who had no right to do so. The only thing in question is how big the problem will be allowed to get before effective action is taken.
