Austria also wants out of the EU migrant swapping scam.
Austria will seek an exemption from having to accept more asylum-seekers under an EU relocation system, it said on Tuesday, arguing that it has already taken in its fair share during Europe’s migration crisis.
The move is a new blow to the system that would cover only a fraction of migrant arrivals to the European Union and that has barely been implemented because of opposition led by Eastern European countries including Poland and Hungary.
It also coincides with a tightening of security and immigration rules by the centrist coalition government in Austria, where a wave of arrivals that began in 2015 helped fuel a rise in support for the far-right Freedom Party, which still leads in opinion polls.
Maybe we can come up with something better than “asylum-seeker”?
__”so-called asylum-seeker” is clumsy – “self-described asylum-seeker” no better –
__”uninvited guest” sounds too Scandinavian-nicey –
Suggestions?
Invader?
Hi Eeyore,
The term invader sounds great.
Thank You.
Sounds good to me.
