Germany’s Merkel rules out tax rises to pay for refugees

The contempt of Bavaria has escalated, and on Friday, the state threatened to take the German government to court if it fails to immediate steps to limit the flow of asylum seekers in the country, threatening to take matters into their own hands if the flow did not stop.

Speaking after the Bavarian Cabinet meeting, Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said the state could consider emergency measures such as returning refugees to Austria if Berlin does not act.

The package of measures proposed by the Bavarian government also includes spending about € 489 million on a program called “Encouraging social cohesion and strengthening integration.”

Mr Seehofer’s deputy Ilse Aigner said Germany could expect as many as seven million refugees, because of relatives legally joining those granted asylum in Germany.

Governor Horst Seehofer and his conservative government have been the harshest domestic critics of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s approach to the migration crisis. Schools will be provided with 1,700 teachers, Seehofer said, stressing that “education is the gateway to integration”.

A right-wing German party plans to lodge a legal complaint against Chancellor Angela Merkel, accusing her of “people smuggling” for allowing thousands of asylum seekers into the country after they got stuck on the Hungarian border.

In a television interview Wednesday, she criticized the actions of other countries in the European Union that have been unwilling to accept refugees.

The migrant crisis has deeply polarised Germany.

Bavaria’s leaders have demanded that Berlin restrict the numbers arriving. “We need a limit so integration can be successful”.

EarActiv Germany reported that the marches, organized by the “Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the Occident” group drew 9,000 participants, while Deutsche Welle added that a previous march last week gathered together another 7,500.

“We have to understand that you can’t turn the influx of refugees on and off like a tap,” he said.

Asked regardless she can provide her keyword there wouldn’t be a tax raises in experience of the fugitive calamity, Merkel shared: “Yes, definitely”.

Merkel, the newspaper said, spoke “like a waterfall and lively like never before, which showed how critical the situation is”.
