Microsoft founder Bill Gates has called on Europe to stop demonstrating generosity towards asylum seekers to avoid an overwhelming migrant influx. He also advises European states to make Africans' way to the continent much more difficult.
During an interview Germany's Welt am Sonntag, Gates, one of the richest people on the planet, warned of the grave consequences of exceeding generosity towards refugees coming to Europe, whose numbers would only rise unless something is done.
"On the one hand you want to demonstrate generosity and take in refugees, but the more generous you are, the more word gets around about this – which in turn motivates more people to leave Africa," Gates said.
While Germany has been one of the pioneers of the open door policy, it cannot "take in the huge, massive number of people who are wanting to make their way to Europe." Thus Gates advised European nations to take action in order to make it "more difficult for Africans to reach the continent via the current transit routes."

Err, 'Native' you say?, speaking as a Celt, those fucking immigrants you're talking about above can just fuck off right back to whatever parts of the continent they came from...bloody pseudo-germans...
speaking as a Pict¹, those fucking Celts can just piss off back to the continent as well with them....
speaking as a representative of the Beaker Folk², those painted Pictish scunners for fuck off right back to wherever they came from with the Celts..
speaking as a Neanderthal³, you Homo Sapiens can just bugger off back to the continent..
¹ Yes, I know there's a school of thought that the Picts were Celts too...
² Yes, I also know there's a school of thought that the Picts were Beaker People...
³ I kid you not, I stay within a 10 minute walk of a family who, based on the facial reconstructions of Neanderthal skulls I've seen, must be more Neanderthal than Homo Sapiens..

Bloody immigrants, ruined that place. It's been all downhill since the Stone Ages. Can't buy a decent stone axe any more, just this godsawful metal that barely lasts 100 years.
