Youth unemployment in Spain is about the highest in Europe, and the low paid have been up in arms about the big jump in rental prices for a while now..I know the EU must be well chuffed with Spain's leftie government,just as they've began realise it's all been a big mistake all along and started getting tougher.

Unfortunately it gives them a stepping stone to the U.K. via the visa system or illegally across the channel.

Only because your chums in Parliament can't handle illegal invasion. Now your chums in the EU are actively encouraging it.
Should we tell Spain that if any of them invade this country illegally we will class that as an act of war and make a token reply....................Or what do you think we should do.

No idea Derwent, no European country has found a solution to the refugee problem, it’s not going to go away, not unless you revert to Trumps tactics of murdering people, do you support the antics of ICE, nothing is going to stop it. Any conflict with Iran is going to create a bigger issue, I refer back to Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq and Libya and the African countries where is ongoing conflicts.

The BBC were really good at news once, it’s just trading on it’s name now.

Why...read The Guardian and let the lot of them in and be kind. If bankrupts the country and causes civil unrest it will be purely because of racism.
