Germany: Migrant mob attacks police, by

“Integration can only work if we limit migration,” he said.
“Integration can only work if we limit migration,” he said.
This
is when you know you have too many! When police officers arrived at a center
housing migrants in order to remove an African man who had been rejected for asylum,
the officers were driven out and forced to release the deportee. But they came
back with reinforcements…. Germans are not happy.
The Irish Times, which sounds surprisingly sympathetic to
the notion that there is a limit to the number of migrants a country can
handle, has the story (I hope they get the message in Ireland!):
Germany’s
interior minister has vowed to speed up the deporting of failed asylum seekers
after a group of migrants violently forced the police to release a young
African man about to be deported.
Horst Seehofer described the incident this week as “scandalous” and “a
slap in the face of the law-abiding population”. He said the perpetrators would
meet the full force of the law. The attack made front-page news on Thursday,
adding fuel to an already highly contentious debate over how to deal with
refugees whose asylum requests have been turned down.
Berlin faces mounting public pressure to toughen its approach towards
deportation, especially of young criminals and refugees accused of harboring extremist
views.
In
a bid to speed up the often drawn-out process, the government of Angela Merkel
is planning to set up so-called anchor refugee centres that will house new
arrivals. If their asylum bid fails, they would be deported directly from the
anchor centre.
In 2015 Horst Seehofer invited Hungarian
PM Viktor Orban to Deutschland infuriating Mama Merkel! Seehofer and
commonsense: “Integration
can only work if we limit migration.”
“Anchor
centres will help us enormously when it comes to bundling and speeding up
asylum procedures,” Mr Seehofer told a press conference in Berlin on Thursday.
The new system, he added, was also “more humane” because it would provide legal
clarity to asylum seekers as soon as possible.
Mr
Seehofer, a member of the conservative Christian Social Union from Bavaria,
also promised other measures to reduce refugee flows into Germany. He said the
surge in asylum seekers during the 2015-2016 Syrian refugee crisis should not
be repeated.
More
than 1.3 million migrants – mainly from Syria, Afghanistan and sub-Saharan
Africa – have arrived in Germany since 2015, sparking significant social and
political upheaval.
The
latest controversy surrounding refugee policy was triggered by events in the
southern city of Ellwangen on Monday night. Police apprehended a 23-year-old
man from Togo who was set to be sent back to Italy, his point of arrival in the
EU. They were forced to
retreat after coming under attack from 150-200 African migrants who eventually
managed to free the deportee.
Police returned to the Ellwangen centre with hundreds of officers on
Thursday and managed to apprehend the 23-year-old.
