Even Sweden Doesn’t Want Migrants Anymore [due to their high levels of crime and welfare dependency]

Earlier this month, Swedish Minister of Finance Magdalena Andersson delivered her maiden speech as head of the Swedish Social Democratic Party... “If you are young,” she said, “you must obtain a high school diploma and go on to get a job or higher education.” If you receive financial aid from the state, “you must learn Swedish and work a certain number of hours a week.”

The Social Democrats now deploy the harsh language only far-right nativists of the Sweden Democrats party used in 2015... all major parties today stand for a restrictive migration policy with a strong focus on law and order

In recent years, the country has suffered from soaring crime rates. According to a report by the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention, over the last 20 years, Sweden has gone from having one of the lowest to one of the highest levels of gun violence in Europe—worse than Italy or eastern Europe. “The increase in gun homicide in Sweden is closely linked to criminal milieux in socially disadvantaged areas,” the report said. Gangs—whose members are second-generation immigrants, many from Somalia, Eritrea, Morocco, and elsewhere in North Africa—specialize in drug trafficking and the use of explosives. Crime has become the number one issue in Sweden; before she said a word about migration, Andersson boasted that her party added 7,000 new police officers, built more prisons, and drafted laws creating 30 new crimes.

foreign-born represent 53 percent of individuals with long prison sentences, 58 percent of the unemployed, and receive 65 percent of social welfare expenditures; 77 percent of Sweden’s child poverty is present in households with a foreign background, while 90 percent of suspects in public shootings have immigrant backgrounds.

All talk, no action. No deportations. No apologies for the lives destroyed, women raped, victims murdered by liberals who enforced open borders and diversity at gunpoint and as a national religion.

Use castration in addition to the normal penalties, not instead of.

It doesn’t need to be an either-or thing.

Sounds as if Enoch Powell and Jean Raspail(Camp of the Saints) were right after all.

So was our own American grand standing clown who hurt the cause (McCarthy).

Maybe Swedish women have finally tired of being raped.

They have a better chance of getting rid of herpes than illegals squatters have many friends in high places kind of like the USA.
