Are you in favor of Turkey in the EU? I am. And think a lot of the opposition for it is bigoted.
I do however dislike how say Sweden or Germany can take in tons of immigrants/refugees. Give them citizenship eventually and then those people are allowed to move everywhere in the EU. That was surely a concern for some people.
But it is also important to note that the UK government NOT the EU was responsible for the massive Muslim and nonwhite immigration into Britain. The Labour party started that project at the end of the 90s under Tony Blair. Heck someone on here once said that a leaked report from Labour showed a desire to permantly change UK demographics.
Of course what is the likelihood that Muslim who gain citizenship in Germany will want to move to say Hungary? Especially if Hungary has tougher restrictibe citizenship laws and is not friendly to Muslims?
I think it is entirely within their right to be restrictive if they so wish.
None of the migrants want to stay, or move to the EU border countries. Most are broke and or corrupt. Both in the case of Hungary, which is run by a mini Putin wanna be.
Italy just implimented mandatory fingerprinting for migrants (which means they can no longer travel freely), and they rioted. Same thing happened in Hungary a year ago. Strange that there was nothing mentioned about this in western MSM, eh? Look at the riot in Calais on the eve of Brexit.
Migrants ultimate goal is to get to Germany, the UK, or Sweden. If it takes them a few years to get status before they can move on then they will wait, while the host country feeds and clothes them. After which they could move on to the UK without issues.
What do you think would happen if Turkey joined the EU, and their millions of undocumented migrants/refugees were granted free travel anywhere on the continent?
@MicroBrew called Turkey an Islamic Trojan Horse, and that's a perfect description imo.
Brexit wasn't just about globalization, immigration or refugees. It was about opting out of Merkels insane open door policy to the third world, and all the complications that come with it.
