Irt is if they want to keep the EU. So they can keeop getting workers from Czech, Poland and anywhere else. To hold down wage rises.

It's Germany's problem when the people who are entering the country go on benefits as automation takes their jobs.

It is if Greece needs more money.

As China's economy rises the rest of the First World falls or stagnates and all the extra benefits go to the top 1%

populist bullshit, it's not millions and you cannot throw all of them in one pot. and people with no right to being here are already being deported.
Yes, it's popular, isn't that what living in a democracy is about?



The returning rate is very low.

Mr de Maiziere said about 55,000 migrants returned home voluntarily last year, compared with 35,000 in 2015. Another 25,000 were forcibly deported.
Good luck with the rest returning.

Now that is Germany's problem. Germany 'spent more than ?20bn on refugees in 2016' as crisis outstrips state budgets That will be an annual bill to cover housing, food, heating, education, healthcare and crime.

Because of the Schengen agreement, the migrants Merkel invited in are free to move around the EU. They went to Sweden, Denmark, France, the UK, etc. Maybe Merkel should have thought of that before inviting them in. Now those countries have the same bills to pay to look after migrants.
