    Take the political spectrum. Everyone except the far left fringe cares about immigration and secure borders.

    You don’t have to hate immigrants or be a racist to want your country’s borders safe and illegal immigration curbed.

    The left can keep ignoring this at their own peril.

      But Germany doesn’t actually have a problem with illegal immigration. Almost all immigrants in Germany are here legally.

      There are roughly 50.000 “Ausreisepflichtige” (Persons required to leave the country) out of a population of 84 Million. That number is roughly constant over the last 10 years. Doesn’t seem to be an issue worth discussing.
