THE ARROGANCE OF ANGLER MERKEL


THE ARROGANCE OF ANGLER MERKEL.

 
Angler Merkel, the elected Chancellor of Germany, since 2005, is on record as criticising the UK for their response to the migrant and refugee situation in the EU. She has told the Prime Minister David Cameron on a number of occasions that the free movement of labour is not open to discussion, as it is main part of the EU, and has threatened him that if the UK doesn’t take more refugees then his hopes of discussing new terms of membership will be blocked. Her man, President Jean-Claude Junker, is now trying to force the UK to take several tens of thousands of refugees, under a plan to impose arbitrarily fixed allocations, by threatening to tear up the Dublin Agreement which allows us to deport any migrants elsewhere within the EU.  As we are already the most densely populated country in the EU with great pressure on all of our public services we have to resist this to prevent a population explosion and the consequences of social breakdown. Leaving the EU is looking more likely if this type of treatment of a major net contributor continues.

 
Angler Merkel has a need to have a free flow of migrant workers and refugees into her country while we don’t. The German population appeared to grow at a steady rate until about 2003 and has shown a steady decline since then, it fell by 166,591 in 2014 and it was estimated to fall by 166,244 during 2015, before current events. While the number of deaths exceeds the number births and there is an increase in the aging population, if Germany wants to maintain its position as the largest manufacturer and exporter in Europe they need a supply of working age people to replace and increase their workforce.

On the other hand, the population of the UK has had a steady increase over the last 10 years and is currently standing at 500,000 per. year. More worrying is that immigration last year was 630,000 (ONS) that we know of and an estimated 100,000 illegal immigrants that we don’t, certainly far more than the tens of thousands that we were promised.

A PROBLEM – BUT PARTLY OF OUR OWN MAKING.


A PROBLEM – BUT PARTLY OF OUR OWN MAKING.   

 
We hear how migrants from the EU are flooding into the UK putting pressure on housing, local authorities, schools, social services, the benefit system and taking British jobs. In reality it would appear that over 60% of the migrants from the EU actually have a job offer before they leave their home. The majority of them are being invited to come here and in some cases provided the transport and accommodation.

 
It would appear that British companies, and foreign ones bases here, are advertising their vacancies and using agencies abroad to recruit their staff. They are using the “Free movement of workers” for their own benefit without considering the overall affect on our country. When the work finishes, the job doesn’t work out, the person is removed from the position or in the case of seasonal work the workforce is laid off, the first question that is asked is “where is the benefits office ? ” and they have now become the British taxpayer’s problem.

I was talking to a female Polish truck driver recently who was recruited and brought to the UK. She reckons that she earns three times as much money here, for doing the same job, as she would in Poland. After having been here for a few years she has now decided to make this her home and has recently bought a house and is try to encourage certain members of her family to make the move.

The Prime Minister David Cameron believes that by controlling access to the benefits system he can stem the flow of EU migrants into the UK and he is spending time, which I am sure could be far better spent, travelling around the EU trying to convince his counterparts of his views, to get the changes that he thinks that he needs, to convince the UK public before the referendum. He has lost sight of the only way that we are going to get control of our problems is by controlling FREE MOVEMENT.
