EU BORDER THREAT: Brussels to fine countries €250,000 for EVERY REFUGEE refused entry (Madness)
Express ^ | 5-3-2016 | Joey Millar

BRUSSELS is set to slap EU states with eye-watering fines of €250,000 for every refugee they refuse - twisting states' arms into accepting controversial migrant quotas.The financial penalty, which would see countries who wish to retain control of their own borders fined hundreds of millions of euros, is expected to be unveiled tomorrow.

With countries including Hungary refusing to accept quotas of migrants issued by the European Union, the huge financial threat has been introduced to prevent states from choosing who to accept in their countries.

The deliberately high fine of €250,000 per asylum seeker will leave countries with no choice but to accept thousands of migrants - or face huge penalties.

Poland, for example, would be forced to pay €1.5billion if they kept their borders closed to the 6,200 migrants on their quota.

It is indeed madness, as you said.

The PM of Hungary is refusing to let the hordes into Hungary. The EU is upset.

They’ll fine them, and the countries will just say “I’d rather owe it to you than cheat you out of it”. Just another extension of the Euros need to keep lying to each other.

Brussels in Belgium is considered the de facto capital of the European Union, having a long history of hosting the institutions of the European Union within its European Quarter. The EU has no official capital, and no plans to declare one, but Brussels hosts the official seats of the European Commission, Council of the European Union, and European Council, as well as a seat (officially the second seat but de facto the most important one) of the European Parliament.

Suicide, a threat from the folks that were attacked.

Madness, sheer Madness.

I wait for Obummer to threaten a fine if we don't accept terrorists here in the (formerly) good old USA.
