Russian President Vladimir Putin says Muslim immigrants and Muslim refugees should go to a country that shares the same religion as them, such as Saudi Arabia and Iran "Where their radical beliefs are considered the norm".
When he was asked by RT why Russia does not take Syrian refugees he said "Russia is for Russians, first and foremost".
Just look at what is happening in countries like Germany and Sweden.
Mass immigration from the Middle East, Asia and Africa is a disaster.

Some parts of Europe are experiencing a humanitarian crisis. Tens of thousands of migrants have been thrown into the streets. There is no European country that can provide free housing, food, money and welfare benefits to millions of illegal immigrants from all over the Arab world.


Watch Video:


The German government expects to spend around 93.6 billion euros by the end of 2020 on costs related to the refugee crisis.

Its the impact on housing, healthcare, the rising costs of welfare, schools that are brought under horrific burdens trying to teach an influx of children who don't speak the Language yet fill up the classrooms and competing for already scarce jobs with workers who are willing to take less money for the same job - these are the day to day burgeoning effects of mass immigration.
Populism has ONLY arisen because the elites of Europe have neglected their duty towards the very people that put them in power. Instead of serving the people they have falsely assumed mastery over them and the people will simply not stand for it.

The only solution to the immigration crisis is to close the borders and deport illegal immigrants back to where they came from.
Most of the immigrants who arrived in Germany are not refugees from Syria. They are Muslim immigrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East who exploited the flow of immigrants from Syria to invade Europe as "refugees." Multiculturalism has failed in Europe.

Most people are unaware of the consequences of the illegal mass immigration into Europe that lead to the changing face of Europe.

There are Western countries that do not even acknowledge that there is a lack of integration within the immigrant communities.

The Western world must close the borders before it is too late.
 
Time for a reality check as to the financial situation of Rumanians in the UK. Rumania spends over € 100,000 to educate each doctor - currently there are over 10,000 Rumanians employed by the NHS. You can do your own maths to work out the saving there for Britain ! Only 2.2% of all social security claimants in the UK are from other EU countries, and only 0.26% of children receiving child benefit are not UK based - the leading countries here being Poland and Ireland. There are 272,000 Rumanians in the UK (what minute amount of these are claiming any benefits ?) the vast majority are paying taxes and doing jobs which the British don't want to do.
how many people trained by the nhs work abroad

To put this into perspective Germany has had 114,165 applications for asylum in 2019 - this compares to 745,545 in 2016, which suggests that the refugee crisis (if it could be called that) is over. The origins of those 114,165 have been:
Syria 26,722
Iraq 9,491
Nigeria 7,499
Turkey 7,221 (mostly Kurdish)
Afghanistan 6,199
Iran 5,909
Somalia 2,430
Eritrea 2,353
Georgia 2,322
Others 2,500 (these could be from anywhere because all claims have to be processed - even Canada has refugees from the USA).

The sums which Germany has spent on this are minute compared to the solidarity tax arising out of the reunification in 1989, and we are well over the peak now. Actually the accomodation which was prepared for refugees has been twice that which was needed. Things are coming to a sad stage when you are prepared to use Putin in your propagandist cause.

Spain's Supreme Court has sentenced nine Catalan separatist leaders to between nine and 13 years in prison for sedition over their role in the 2017 independence referendum.
Three other defendants were found guilty of disobedience and fined but will not serve prison sentences.
The 12 politicians and activists had all denied the charges.
A new arrest warrant was also issued for former Catalan President Carles Puigdemont, who is living abroad.
In response to the verdicts, thousands of Catalan independence supporters marched in Barcelona before blocking some streets and access to metro stations.

Large crowds of demonstrators later clashed with riot police at the entrance to Barcelona's El Prat airport.
Footage showed people attempting to break through a police line blocking one area of the building, while in another, officers armed with batons confronted them.

Some of the 12 leaders sentenced on Monday had held prominent positions in Catalonia's government and parliament, while others were influential activists and cultural advocates.
During four months of hearings, they told the court in Madrid that they were victims of an injustice in a trial built on "false" charges.

The longest sentence of 13 years was handed to Oriol Junqueras, the former vice-president of Catalonia and the highest-ranking pro-independence leader on trial, for sedition and misuse of public funds.
The prosecution had sought up to 25 years in prison for Junqueras.

The new European and international arrest warrant against Mr Puigdemont was issued on grounds of sedition and misuse of public funds.
He fled to Belgium in October 2017 to avoid prosecution in Spain following the failed independence bid.
What has the reaction been?
Junqueras accused Spain of jailing people for their political ideals and pledged that the separatists would return even stronger.
But Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez insisted the leaders had been jailed for criminal conduct.
Mr Puigdemont said the sentences handed to separatist leaders of "100 years in total" were "an atrocity".
"Now more than ever... it is time to react like never before," he wrote on Twitter, adding: "For the future of our sons and daughters. For democracy. For Europe. For Catalonia."

Fascist country. Imagine if an English Court did that to an SNP leader. Expect the EU to stand by Spain, as it has until now

Agree this is just another reason why we need to get out asap.

Today I sat listening to an SNP mp who is trying to stop Brexit and in the next breath talks about another Scottish referendum? You couldn't make it up.
I blame May for all this for losing her majority. The Tories are so lucky that Corbyn is unelectable otherwise they would be right in it now.
