    Europe needs to do far more to stop these economic migrants.

    Australia put everyone coming over illegally on an island until they got processed then sent them back. Crossings went way down.

    The human right laws were not built with this level of exploitation in mind and need changing.

      They also pay about $3.5M per migrant per year, so it’s not cheap. I assume they think it’s worth it.
