If even Sweden is closing its borders to refugees, it could be the end for mass immigration. Me for @Telegraphhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/sweden/11990885/If-even-Sweden-is-closing-its-borders-to-refugees-this-really-could-be-the-end-for-mass-immigration.html …
@MargoJMilne @fleetstreetfox only because they are being encouraged to leave safe haven in Turkey to come to Germany, Sweden etc.

@JuliaHB1@fleetstreetfox So it's OK for Turkey to have to stand the costs, but not other countries? -
@MargoJMilne@fleetstreetfox no, it's Turkey's bad luck. But that still doesn't mean we should accept millions of Syrians etc here. -
@JuliaHB1@fleetstreetfox So much for British notions of fair play, eh? -
@MargoJMilne I think your notion of fair play might be rather wider than most people's -
@JuliaHB1 That makes me sad, if so. -
@MargoJMilne funnily enough, if we share out Britain's wealth and lifestyle with anyone who wants it, it won't exist anymore. -
@JuliaHB1 You realise that immigrants *create* wealth? -
@MargoJMilne some do. Some don't. As a general rule, less educated, unskilled immigrants who don't speak the language tend not to. - 1 more reply
