A report by the German Association of Cities recounts problems of illegal working, schoolchildren being unable to speak German and a rise in organised crime since the migrants arrived.

Berlin, Hamburg, Dortmund and Hanover have seen a six-fold increase in economic migration from the two countries since 2006, which they say has left them struggling to cope.

The report says cities are facing “significant costs as a result of this poverty migration”.

It calls on Chancellor Angela Merkel to provide financial assistance to help them deal with the strain under which the migration is putting them, the Daily Mail reported.

“The social balance and social peace is extremely endangered,” the report says.

Tanker,

As a believer in efficiency, why wait a few years?

---

The forecasted “unrest” in Germany is possibly due to “rising” unemployment, with stalling economic growth and investment.

“Fascist” elements in society always like “scapegoats” to “finger” and blame for their own “failings”.

To a certain degree, that is what is happening throughout much of Europe at the moment, rather than a concerted address of the failure of the economic and cultural systems being operated within those countries.

-----------------

Fauxpage and UKIP are “breeding” on those “ blame assumptions” and their inwardly looking followers are swallowing and broadcasting them.

I wonder what colour UKIP will pick for their shirts.

Black and brown shirts seem to be coming back into fashion.

Cynic,

A short time ago, you suggested one of the powers you might like to see repatriated from EU was that relating to fishing.

The EU must have heard you.

Interesting article, but for me shows the necessity of EU in the “modern” day.

That for me is why the EU legislative system is necessary and why we need it, for without "negotiations" chaos will rule.

We could of course go back to the 30s and 40s.

(Also, interesting to look at the devaluation of Sterling (or the pound in your pocket) over the last few months.)

currencies fluctuate the whole time, sometimes wildly

eu and fishing regulation enforcement? ...... don't make me laugh!
btw, you're decades wrong! ..... try mid 70s

Cynic,

Did you read the article?

just goes to show Osbourne backed by Cameron wrong again on austerity......

Times running out for ................ Call me Dave.

Just a little C+P from above:

"Government 'to borrow £64 billion more' than planned
The Institute for Fiscal Studies said the Chancellor will borrow £64 billion more than intended during this parliament.

The increased figures is due to Osborne's original borrowing predictions being based on a more optimistic economic outlook. The IFS explain:

He will be borrowing £64 billion more in 2014-15 than he planned just two years ago. This is because he is choosing not to offset the forecast deterioration of £65 billion driven by a worse economic outlook. Announced policy measures will reduce borrowing by just £1 billion. As a result he is on course to miss his own target of debt falling in 2015.

Indeed he is now pursuing a looser policy than that permitted by the last government’s Fiscal Responsibility Act. Had he not repealed that legislation he would have been obliged to cut spending or increase taxes by around an additional £8 billion next year."

No wonder Cameron wants to go on trips abroad.

Party in disarray, country in disarray and Osborne in charge.

"The charge of the light brigade"

Judging by the standard of TANKER's English, surely he must be an illiterate immigrant.

Osbourne to go first then Cameron

They are soul mates or something like that!

'something like that' Fred.
Whatever... between the two of them they are in the process of reducing the Conservatives chances of being re elected at the next GE to nill. They will have to be removed from their positions to give the cons the slightest hope.

A good team.

They must be representing the local blind school.
