British National Party leader (BNP), extreme-right, newly elected European Parliament, said Wednesday that the EU would have to sink ships of African immigrants trying to reach the continent, reports AFP.
Nick Griffin, one of the two BNP members elected to Parliament in Brussels in June, he told the BBC that the board should be thrown, instead, a rescue raft to turn back. Griffin insisted, so that only by adopting drastic measures can deter illegal immigration, before Europe be swallowed by the Third World. "
"The only measure which, sooner or later will stop immigration and prevent a large number of Africans subsaharieni to die on the road towards Europe is to act very harshly against those who arrive on the continent," said Griffin on BBC.
"Frankly, we should sink some of those ships," he insisted. "We support any initiative of this kind proposed by the responsible EU (which deals with the fight against illegal immigration) and we oppose any policies that will lead ultimately to aceeptarea illegal immigrants in Europe," added Griffin.
Over 67,000 people have crossed the Mediterranean to penetrate in Europe in 2008, half of them sosind in Italy and Malta, according to data published in January by the United Nations Agency for Refugees. BNP calls for immediate halt to immigration in Britain and "voluntary resettlement" of immigrants, who are already in this country, in their country of origin.
