BERLIN, Sept 16 (Reuters) - Germany reintroduced temporary border checks including at its frontiers with France and the Netherlands on Monday as part of efforts to combat irregular migration and cross-border crime.
The coalition government has toughened its stance on migration following a surge in arrivals, in particular people fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East, and a rise in support for the opposition far-right and conservatives.
Well, looks like the start of EU countries waking up to the problems of immigration. Only trouble is, certainly in the UK, they class such acts as racist and anyone taking part is classed as racist.
The likes of New Zealand and Australia have been doing this for decades but not once have they been labelled as racist. The top cats in Brussels will be annoyed and no doubt issue fines.
