Système commun en matière de retour des ressortissants de pays tiers en séjour irrégulier dans l’Union (règlement sur le retour) (débat)
Mr President, colleagues, this House has only two blocks on migration: common sense pro-Europeans and the far left. The far left never wanted a real return regulation. The far left wanted endless appeals and unused detention. The far left wanted to ban return hubs. The far left opposed unlimited entry bans for terrorists and criminals. In short, they fought to preserve a dysfunctional, paralysed system that returns almost no one. Why does the far left fight so hard to keep criminals, rapists and Islamists roaming freely on our streets? Whether social democrat, green or communist, they are all far left on migration. And many liberals have joined them. Yet common sense has prevailed. We delivered. It will now be possible to build big, beautiful return hubs in third countries. We can enforce unlimited entry bans, not just for serious criminals, but low-level criminals too, and detain criminals for as long as necessary. Illegal migrants must understand: you will never make Europe your home. The era of deportations has begun.
