Merkel’s human rights speaker, Erika Steinbach, resigned over the chancellor’s immigration policy. She also left the CDU party.
Erika Steinbach, who’s been with Chancellor Merkel’s CDU for 43 years, has strongly criticized the leader’s handling of the migrant crisis. She claims conservatives have been sidelined in Germany’s main ruling party.
“Would I vote CDU at the moment? No. Would I join the CDU today? No. I can only draw the honest conclusion of leaving the CDU,” she told “Welt Am Sonntag” (WaS) newspaper.
Ministers ‘encouraged influx’
Steinbach went further, accusing the government of deliberately promoting illegal migration.
“At the Federal Office for Migration, thousands of thousands of passports have been identified as counterfeit, without the legal consequences for the respective migrants being drawn. There is a political will behind it.”
Political Will
It’s quite obvious Merkel wanted mass immigration. It’s debatable why, but German citizens have to put up with the consequences whatever Merkel’s reason.
If there was a strong candidate willing to challenge Merkel from within, Merkel would easily lose her next election. It’s possible Merkel loses anyway.
Regardless, her “Grand Coalition” has completely splintered as members of her own party are fed up. Even if Merkel wins, I doubt she lasts the full term.
Mike “Mish” Shedlock
Yawn – she announced the end of her Bundestag career already in 2015 after being there for 27 years:
Freitag, 07.08.2015 18:10 Uhr
Die CDU-Abgeordnete und langjährige Präsidentin des Bundes der Vertriebenen (BdV), Erika Steinbach, scheidet 2017 aus dem Bundestag aus. “Am Ende der laufenden Legislaturperiode gehöre ich 27 Jahre dem Deutschen Bundestag an”, sagte sie. “Das ist schon eine stattliche Zahl.” Für eine weitere Amtszeit werde sie nicht mehr kandidieren, sagte die Politikerin.
Rats abandoning a sinking ship.
How does a democratic elected speaker get away with genocide against her own people?
Who gave her this power?
She never mentioned mass muslim immigration when running. Now it is the center policy of her legacy.
East blocker Merkel was trained from birth to hate and destroy the west.
Why are people surprised?
German immigration authorities are completely incompetent and they are granting asylums in among the highest percentages of applicants from all EU countries.
.
Only Italy has higher acceptance rates for asylum seekers and the Italian motivation for high acceptance is to push asylum seekers north through EU free movement after Italy has given them asylum so that because they are legal the french border police can no longer stop them at the border like France has been doing to asylum seekers (who have not registered asylum application in Italy) trying to go north from Italy since June 2015.
.
Asylum seekers that get asylum in Italy mostly move to welfare paying european countries through EU free movement (including to UK) but asylum seekers that get asylum in Germany stay in Germany on generous welfare and bring their family too on german welfare through quick family re-unification as demanded by inane and insane EU-directive on family re-unions.
.
There should be mass firings from the german immigration bureaucrats because of incompetence and inability to do their jobs.
99% of asylum seekers asylum claims should be DENIED and sent back home or to peaceful neighboring countries (syrians) or to their own countries peaceful areas (iraqis, somalians, afganistanis) and army deserting eritreans should be sent back to Eritrea after making a deal with eritrean government that EU stops luring eritreans to desert army by giving free apartment and welfare for the rest of their lives to all eritreans who desert army service and get to welfare paying europe and eritrea will no longer punish army deserters (which they have to do now because the pull of free apartment in europe and free welfare money is too much for tens of thousands of eritreans).
.
Merkel should have been fired by german parliament immediately after she said in the summer of 2015 that there is NO LIMIT on how many asylum seekers Germany will take!
Lying once should result in rejecting the asylum application permanently and immediately but Germany and Sweden and other western european countries let asylum seekers lie about their age, lie about their family, lie about their religion, lie about their background, lie about their family, lie about their persecution, lie about everything.
.
Norway even granted asylum to a muslim who claimed to be gay and gave him Norwegian citizenship and afterwards he raped several women so obviously his gay claim was just a trick to get asylum by crying how muslim gays are oppressed in muslim countries.
.
The newest trick is converting to christianity and claiming the asylum seeker will be killed in his muslim home country if he is returned because he converted to christianity so the western country must give him asylum.
.
These people will do anything to stay on european welfare and get the free apartment and family re-unification to welfare their countrymen bragged about getting from stupid europeans through Facebook…
It’s both safe and intriguing to guess why Angela Merkel is obsessed with destroying the culture and social character of her native country by importing millions of indigent and illiterate migrants.
It’s a little more challenging to figure out the reason why our own government has turned a blind eye to millions of illegal indigent and illiterate migrants saturating American cities and consuming our taxes, jobs and public resources. Rule of law has been dismantled.
The US government’s estimate of 11M illegals in America is a croc of crap. A fake estimate. It’s more like 25-30M.
Consider this. California approved drivers licenses for illegals in 2015. In the last 2 years the state issued over 800,000 DL’s to illegals. Many more than first anticipated. Why? Because the original illegal population estimate was grossly understated.
Don’t worry so much about Germany. Look in your own backyard.
Merkel and her elite are crapping themselves as they see Europe slide down the global ranking on growth, population and future global influence. This scares the crap out of them.
Their answer, grab as many as possible from Mid-East and North Africa.
German demographics were terrible, Japan MK2. May well still be so. Deep down the Germans know demographics is destiny (unless robotics upsets that) and need the headcount to contnue to lead Europe.
Long story short – if the UK hadn’t decided to leave the EU the UK economy was being pushed to be bigger than Germany by about 2030 and the baton transferred. The fugures are out there. UK has had waves of immigration form the 1950’s and the demographics look healthier than the average EU.
Merkel/Germany/EU have little choice except increase headcount.
It won’t stop unless the indigenous vote to stop it, big time, and Europe will never be the same again if it continues.
It won’t stop until forced to do so. The mantra is “what will our grand children say if we don’t act to save the EU’s place in the world”.
They know that without more heads Germany is heading down the exit ramp of history. No matter what large corporations they have, the dependency ratio has been heading in the wrong direction for years and accelerating and Corps can up sticks and locate business where growth is.
Future projections suggested Germany would lose lead in Europe, EU suffer and the project stall. That’s OK if a friendly UK could help pick up the slack and there was talk of closer German-UK collaboration. Won’t happen now.
They have a figure in mind somewhere and when it is reached it will slow down.
Imagine if Germany stalls, exports fall etc. Not just Germany goes down the league. The EU is then toast as the paymaster is suffering.
For this reason I see agreements with Turkey (no matter what the EU says) being a necessity, a push east and some agreement with Putin. Without actions like that the EU is just a collection of stagnate smaller countries slipping down the global league tables. Demand is suffering, they need demand and heads.
Geopolitics of the next 25-50 years will be determined by the next 5 imho.
Perhaps the goal is the undermining of the social safety net and ultimately its destruction. Too much demand on limited resources.
