Here is a collection of stories from Europe showing that the people of Europe do not stand behind the EU in the globalist agenda of mass migration
***
“TheGlobal Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) is a
"intergovernmentally negotiated agreement, prepared under the
auspices of the United Nations, [that covers] all dimensions of
international migration in a holistic and comprehensive manner".
The United Nations conference to adopt the compact will be held in
Marrakesh, Morocco, on 10–11 December 2018.

Italy
Adopts Hardline Immigration Law
8
December, 2018
The
Italian Parliament has approved a
tough new immigration and security law that will make it easier to
deport migrants who commit crimes and strip those convicted of
terrorism of their Italian citizenship.
Italy's
lower house of parliament, the Camera
dei Deputati, voted 396
to 99 on November 28 to approve the new law, which was sponsored by
Interior Minister Matteo Salvini. The law had previously
been approved by
the Italian Senate on November 7. The measure was promulgated by
President Sergio Mattarella on December 3.
Also
known as the "Security Decree" or the "Salvini
Decree," the new
law includes
several key provisions:
Eliminates Humanitarian Protection. A primary objective of the new law is to limit the number of migrants granted asylum in Italy. To achieve this aim, Article 1 of the decree abolishes residence permits for so-called humanitarian protection, a form of security available to those not eligible for refugee status.
Under the previous system, the conditions to qualify for humanitarian protection — one of the three forms of protection granted to asylum seekers, in addition to political asylum and subsidiary protection — were vague and subject to abuse. Migrants arriving in Italy were able to claim humanitarian protection, which lasted for two years and provided access to a job, social welfare benefits and housing.
Under the new law, the Italian government will only grant asylum to legitimate refugees of war or victims of political persecution. The new law also introduces a series of special permits (for health reasons or natural disasters in the country of origin) with a maximum duration of between six months and one year.
Extends Period of Detention for Migrants. Article 2 of the new law authorizes Italian authorities to detain migrants held at so-called repatriation centers (Centri di permanenza per il rimpatrio, CPR) for a maximum of 180 days, up from a maximum of 90 days. The extension is in line with the period considered necessary to verify a migrant's identity and nationality.
In addition, Article 3 provides that asylum seekers may be held for a maximum period of 30 days at so-called hotspots, identification facilities at the EU's external borders. If identity is not established in the 30 days, asylum seekers may also be held in repatriation centers for 180 days. In other words, asylum seekers may be held for 210 days to verify their identity.
Increases Funds for Deportation. Article 6 provides for the allocation of additional funds for repatriations: 500,000 euros ($570,000) in 2018, 1.5 million euros ($1.7 million) in 2019 and another 1.5 million euros in 2020.
Eases Revocation of Protection. Article 7 extends the list of crimes for which refugee status or subsidiary protection can be withdrawn. Asylum seekers may now lose their protection if they are convicted of crimes including: threats or violence to a public official; physical assault; female genital mutilation; and a variety of theft charges.
The asylum application may also be suspended if the applicant is in a criminal proceeding for one of the aforementioned crimes and would result in the refusal of asylum in the event of a final conviction. Furthermore, refugees who return to their country of origin, even temporarily, will lose international and subsidiary protection.
Establishes List of Safe Countries of Origin. Article 7-bis provides for the establishment of a list of safe countries of origin, namely countries which have democratic political systems and where "generally and consistently" there is no political persecution, torture or inhumane or humiliating treatment or punishment, threat of violence or armed conflict.
At least 12 EU countries already have such lists, which are used to prevent abuses of EU and national asylum systems.
According to the decree, asylum seekers from countries on the list will be required to provide proof that they face danger in their home countries. The law also introduces new categories that qualify an asylum application as "manifestly unfounded" in the case of: people who have made inconsistent statements; people who have made false information or provided false documents; people who refuse to be fingerprinted; people who are subject to deportation orders; people who constitute a danger to order and security; foreigners who entered Italian territory in an irregular manner and who did not immediately apply for asylum.
In addition to the list of safe countries of origin, Article 10 institutes the principle of "internal flight," that is "if a foreign citizen can be repatriated in some areas of the country of origin where there are no risks of persecution, the application for international protection is rejected."
Downsizes the Asylum Seeker Shelter System. Article 12 stipulates that henceforth only unaccompanied minors and those persons who qualify for international protection will be allowed to use the system for the reception of asylum seekers and refugees (Sistema di protezione per richiedenti asilo e rifugiati, SPRAR), the ordinary reception system managed by Italian municipalities. All other asylum seekers will be processed through the Extraordinary Reception Centers (Centri di Accoglienza Straordinaria, CAS) and by Reception Centers for Asylum Seekers (Centri di Accoglienza per Richiedenti Asilo, CARA). The changes are aimed not only at reasserting central control over the asylum process, but also at restricting access to all but the most basic social services.
Authorizes Revocation of Citizenship. Article 14 provides for revoking Italian citizenship from those who are not Italian by birth and convicted of crimes related to terrorism. Those subject to revocation include: foreigners who acquired citizenship after ten years of residence in Italy; stateless persons who acquired citizenship after five years of residence in Italy; children of foreigners born in Italy who acquired citizenship after the age of 18; spouses of Italian citizens; and adult foreigners who were adopted by an Italian citizen.
The revocation of citizenship is possible within three years of the final conviction for crimes related to terrorism, by decree of the President of the Republic on the proposal of the Minister of the Interior.
Article 14 also increases the waiting period to obtain citizenship to 48 months from 24 months.
Boosts Security Measures. The new law also introduces rules aimed at strengthening measures to guarantee public safety, with particular reference to the threat of terrorism and the fight against criminal infiltration in public tenders.
In an effort to prevent vehicular attacks on pedestrians in crowded places, Article 17 requires car rental agencies to increase controls on individuals who rent trucks and vans. Article 19 authorizes police in municipalities with populations above 100,000 persons to use electric tasers, while Article 24 includes measures to strengthen anti-mafia laws and prevention measures. The Italian mafia has been accused of profiting from the migration crisis.
- The German chancellor agreed measures to speed up deportation
-
- An estimated 450,000 rejected migrants are set to be sent home
-
- Scheme includes £76million of cash incentives to leave voluntarily
Angela
Merkel will offer cash handouts worth millions of pounds for migrants
to leave Germany in an effort to silence criticism of her ‘open-door’
border policy.
In
a highly-embarrassing U-turn over the ill-fated plan, which saw
1.2million migrants flock to the country, Mrs Merkel has now vowed to
send many of them home.
The
German chancellor agreed a package of measures to speed up the
deportation process for an estimated 450,000 migrants who have been
rejected asylum.
The
controversial plan, which marks a significant toughening of previous
proposals, includes a £76million scheme that will offer migrants
cash incentives to leave Germany voluntarily.
Many
will see the move as a desperate attempt for Miss Merkel to claw back
support ahead of her challenging re-election bid in September.
Criticism
of her decision to leave Germany’s borders open and welcome all
refugees during Europe’s migration crisis in 2015 has led to a
surge in support for anti-immigrant parties.....
Austria has passed a
controversial new law that restricts the right of asylum and allows
most claimants to be rejected directly at the border.
Rights groups say the law
undermines the principle of protection from war and persecution.
It comes days after
Austria's far-right came top in the first round of a presidential
election.
Austrian officials say
they are also considering building a fence at the main border
crossing with Italy.
Denmark’s right-leaning
government says it intends to isolate dozens of “unwanted”
migrants on a remote island two miles out to sea that once housed
contagious animals for research.
The island of Lindholm
spans just 17 acres and was used since 1926 for laboratories,
stables, and a crematorium for dead animals, The New York Times
reported.
Nowadays, it houses a
veterinary institute for the Technical University of Denmark, and
runs a ferry service named “the Virus.”
The Danish government
announced last week it intends to decontaminate the island in 2019
and have the facility ready to house up to 125 migrants by the end of
2021.
“If you are unwanted in
Danish society, you should not be a nuisance to ordinary Danes,”
Inger Støjberg, Denmark’s immigration minister, wrote on Facebook.
“They are undesirable in Denmark, and they must feel it!”
“They are undesirable in Denmark, and they must feel it!”
All
the signs are that politicians in the House of Commons will choose
overwhelmingly to stop the agreement May has struck after
18 months of talks with the EU.
And
so, in what seems like a desperate last minute play, May's government
(that is whoever remains loyal to her) has issued a dramatic
letter of warning to the country warning of the consequences of a
'no' vote and the case of the UK crashing out of the EU without a
deal.
This
is Project Fear 3.0 (to
be clear, Project
Fear 1.0 was
PM Cameron's 2016 warnings of national security threats, among other
things; and Project
Fear 2.0 was
The Bank of England's latest economic depression forecast)
The
government is telling supermarkets to keep as much stock as possible
in warehouses around the country.
“The problem for supermarkets throughout this process is the seasonality of fresh produce,” said Brian Connell, a supply chain consultant at KPMG.
“Some of the stuff they would want to stockpile hasn’t even been sown yet, let alone grown or harvested.”
Two
members of the Government are resigning and a Cabinet minster is
mulling whether to quit over Brexit this weekend as Theresa May’s
administration appears to be disintegrating ahead of the most
important vote of a generation.
Government
whips have given Conservative MPs until lunchtime on Sunday to set
out how they will vote on Mrs May’s Brexit deal, in a desperate bid
to judge the scale of a rebellion that threatens to bring down her
government.
Writing
in The Telegraph, Will Quince MP, a member of the Defence Secretary’s
ministerial team, announces he is quitting his government role,
saying he wants to “implore the Prime Minister to go back to the
European Union and find another way”.

November, 2018
Poland
has announced it would be following nations including the U.S.,
Hungary, and Austria in pulling out of the UN migration pact, which
it said would only “intensify” problems with illegal immigration.
Speaking
on Radio Poland Tuesday, Defence Minister Mariusz Błaszczak
confirmed the country would not be going to Marrakech next month to
sign the agreement, which he said was “not a good solution” to
Europe’s immigrant influx.
“This
is not a method that would make it possible to reduce the migration
crisis. On the contrary, it would only intensify the crisis,”
Błaszczak told the public broadcaster, adding that Poland is
cooperating with its fellow Visegrád nations to ‘migrant-proof’
external EU borders on the bloc’s east.
Populist
PM claims his country is being punished for not being ‘country of
migrants’
Hungary’s
prime minister, Viktor Orbán, claimed his country was being
condemned for choosing not to be a “country of migrants”, as he
conceded that the European parliament was set to trigger the EU’s
most serious sanction against his government.
Arriving
late to a debate in the chamber in Strasbourg on Tuesday on the
country’s courts, treatment of its Roma community and media and
academic freedoms, Orbán told MEPs that the parliament was
“insulting” his nation.
“I
know that you have already made up your minds. I know that a majority
will approve the report and I know that my speech here today will not
manage to change your opinion,” he told MEPs.
“But
still I have come heretoday because you are not going to condemn a
government but a country as well as a nation. You are going to
denounce Hungary that has been a member of the family of Christian
nations for a thousand years.”
Europe
must turn back the boats, the Czech Republic has said, warning the
current approach of resettling migrants across the continent is the
“road to hell”, and making illegal immigration worse.
Prime
Minister Andrej Babiš restated his nation’s position of not taking
any third world migrants from other EU nations after Italy asked
fellow bloc members to take a share of a batch of hundreds picked up
by Brussels border force Frontex in the Mediterranean on Saturday.
“[Like
other European leaders], I received a copy of the letter from Prime
Minister [Giuseppe] Conte, … in which he asks the EU to take care
of the 450 people currently at sea,” said the populist billionaire,
who has been described by some as a ‘Czech Donald Trump’.
