Migrant Crisis - Bit of a controversial one

(1/9) > >>

Gavlah1973:
This is bound to stir up some differing opinions...... just been reading the news this morning. Due to the deal that means migrants coming from Turkey are sent back it looks like some are now embarking on a more perilous journey from Libya to Italy. Instead of the traditional route through Western Greece.
Obviously this potentially brings into play the Ionian islands due to their location. 

Do we think that we may start to see migrants arriving in Corfu sometime in the near future?

rilo57:
Dont realy see the logic in coming to corfu..much to far to take a boat to italy...we see the problem here often (Belgium) If your on the motorway E40 heading Calais  lots of them walking on the hard shoulder.causeing real problems at Dunkirke and eurotunnel terminal..

Rover:
Wow! Not going to get into any leave or stay argument, but my position will be determined by the economic repercussions of the decision, not on a perceived immigration issue.

Gavlah1973:
Mine will be both Rover

Tredegar Boy:
Perceived immigrant crisis!! I think that depends on your experience and where you live. From my experience we have a crisis.
