Italy will threaten to confiscate charity-run migrant rescue ships as she considers closing her seaports entirely to the mass influx of asylum seekers arriving via the Mediterranean route from Africa.
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) say last year a total of five million migrants flowed into industrialised countries – and those countries should be prepared for the migrants to stay.
The German government has admitted that “Operation Sophia”, which rescues migrants in the Mediterranean Sea, has actually benefitted people smugglers and their business.
Significantly less than half of all the failed asylum seekers and economic migrants, who have no right to remain, are deported from the European Union (EU), it has been revealed.
