The European Commission will impose fines of hundreds of millions of pounds on countries that do not take in refugees.
Jean-Claude Junker is tomorrow expected to unveil plans to impose a penalty of around ?250,000 euros per rejected refugee, in a bid to salvage his botched migration quota scheme.
The European Commission is expected to propose on Wednesday that an emergency scheme to distribute 160,000 people around the bloc following the massive influx last summer be put on a permanent footing, with a quota system of allocations that kick in if there is another vast wave of migrants that overwhelms a country.
Stupid idea!
