Where do you get the idea that Europe doesnt like immigration...

Bit out of date, but gives you the general idea.  Europe has the largest immigration for any continent.

 


Europe is starting a movement to the right, with an clear agenda of closing the borders to new immigrants. Merkel said, not long ago, that multiculturalism has failed as a political path. There's a growing antagonism against immigrants and that's what I want to discuss. I've never said that Europe doesn't have immigrants. If that was the case, there wouldn't be a problem in the first place.

To Christor:  why don't you try and open the doors to immigrants closer to the european culture, like South and Central America. The main problem here, I reckon, is the unwilliness of both sides to integrate. Most immigrants are so allien towards the new culture that they create a country inside a country, which is also bad, since it prevents the new group to profit from the culture that produce the european society in the first place.


I beleive when Merkel said multicultarism failed she meant that Europe had to do a better job of integrating immigrants into Europeon culture.
