Blimey that's a first.
I'll reiterate for him. We shouldn't be letting millions of migrants into the EU. Criminals should be treated like criminals whether migrants or not. The sort of behaviour a good number of them are exhibiting is disgusting and a serious problem which is becoming a threat to our way of life. The EU in general and Merkel in particular have created a huge Europe-wide problem and are still dithering about what to do having opened the floodgates. Our support for migrants should be focussed as close to their places or origin as possible and asylum only given to the most desperate. We cannot give sanctuary to all the world's persecuted, poor or needy and must give due regard to our way of life and the needs or our people. Those who have gained entry into the EU need to be processed as quickly as possible and the economic migrants returned to their places of origin. If we fail to do this and considerably strengthen the EU's borders, countless more will follow. Realistically there's little which can be done about the refugees who've made it into the EU now. The chances of them being sent back to a pile of ruins in Syria or wherever is remote but if they are going to be allowed to make new lives here we can only hope the powers that be make a better job of integrating them into our way of life than appears to have been the case to date. Unless we get to grips with this problem it's only going to get worse and require even more drastic action sooner or later. I'd rather we didn't wait until it's too late.
I think that's it. Phew!
