Migration: To open the borders or not?

Migration: To open the borders or not?

Press quote (European Voice)
08 September 2011

Hugo Brady, who follows EU migration policy for the CER, a London-based think-tank, does not believe that calls for a more rational debate are necessarily realistic. "It might be intellectually coherent to say that we need 50 million immigrants to keep Europe's economic growth going over the next decades," he says. "But Europe does not have the social and political capacity to deal with massive immigration."
