So Germany castigates Hungary, Czech republic and Slovakia etc for trying to impose some control over their borders, while shouting from the rooftops that anyone can come to Germany. Then they decide that actually it's all getting a bit much - so they close the border with Austria, who then close the border with Hungary. Now you can stop telling us what we should be doing, when we're not even in the Schengen zone in the first place, and you might also want to stop telling refugees they don't have to apply in the first country they arrive in, which broke EU regulations. But they're for the rest to follow, obviously, as Germany can do what they like... Optimistic as ever

After promising refuge to 800K immigrants in the first year,Germany has closed its border with Austria after taking in a fraction (40K?) . They are now proposing a financial penalty for those EU countries not wishing to take a proportion. Dream on.

Effectively the best solution is to restrict borders, and take refugees primarily from the camps, thus preventing people trying to get into countries 'illicitly' and claiming independent asylum. Realistically, the solution to the problem is better resolved on an European wide basis, than individual nationalities - Such as the suspension Free Movement going forwards which would reduce UK Immigration by 42% in the coming year, and easily allow for a significant contribution to Refugee placements (well in excess of the 4,000 a year we have agreed on, over five years).

I see your point but: 1. There is no chance that Free Movement will be suspended. 2. Those from the EU under the Free Movement scheme will, generally speaking, return home in due course. The refugees that are taken on will eventually apply for full citizenship. No way will they want to return to Syria/Afghanistan etc after the fighting. As I have said before tracking them down and deporting them will be expensive and difficult.

Germany's action's have been a disgrace, you cannot open your borders the way they have done creating a once in a lifetime mad dash that we will never see again & then shut the door. How many more have died because of Merkel's frankly mental plan? she should be arrested & tried at court.

They are now proposing a financial penalty for those EU countries not wishing to take a proportion. Dream on. See this makes sense to me. They proposed taking 800,000 refugees, not 800,000 immigrants. Effectively the best solution is to restrict borders, and take refugees primarily from the camps, thus preventing people trying to get into countries 'illicitly' and claiming independent asylum. Realistically, the solution to the problem is better resolved on an European wide basis, than individual nationalities - Such as the suspension Free Movement going forwards which would reduce UK Immigration by 42% in the coming year, and easily allow for a significant contribution to Refugee placements (well in excess of the 4,000 a year we have agreed on, over five years). It made sense weeks, if not months, ago, instead of Germany saying you're all welcome and f* the rules abour registering. Now they're swamped with too many, they resort to bullying other countries into doing what they want them to do. Germany ? Bullying other smaller countries? Surely not, I won't have it. Did anyone see the sky news footage of the Hungarians putting up security fences? Jesus H Christ it was like listening to commentary of Simon Bates narrating the erection of a death/ concentration camp FFS. When in fact all they where doing where securing points along the border were ILLEGAL immigrants where ILLEGALLY (there's that word again). The actual official entry point was still open, and yet it wasn’t being used ? interesting isn’t it, a perfectly legal and above board boarder control crossing not being used. Well in the words of one English speaking Syrian "refugee" (my arse) they didn’t want to cross legally as their finger prints would be taken. So in his words, they would stay at the fence causing as much as a problem for the Hungarian authorities as possible until they removed the fence. Now if that doesn’t make even the likes of UN special envoy for peace Mr Jamie Martin even a tad suspicious then I give up. I know why they don’t want their finger prints taken, its because there is a central bank of over 73000 known terrorist finger prints, and I would imagine a few among their contingent have let it be known that no one will have their finger prints taken, or Allah will be very cross. And at this rate there won't be anyone left in Syria by October. Dodgey as f*, and making it harder to recognise the real cases of hardship and persicution. "It's not the bullet that's got my name on it that concerns me; it's all them other ones flyin' around marked 'To Whom It May Concern.'"
