The EU could be on the verge of a new migrant crisis, with more than half a million people waiting in Libya alone to cross into Europe, Greek Migration Minister Thanos Plevris has said.
The bloc was first inundated by asylum seekers from the Middle East and Northern Africa during the 2015 refugee crisis, when a million migrants entered Europe, straining welfare systems and prompting tens of millions of European voters to turn to far-right political parties.
Greece remains one of the bloc’s main entry points, registering 48,771 arrivals in 2025, according to UNHCR data. According to the UN refugee agency, 7,589 migrants and asylum seekers have arrived in the Mediterranean country this year as of May 3, including 5,615 by sea.
Athens has introduced a number of strict measures to stem the flow over the past years, including detention for those denied asylum. Commenting on the situation on Sunday, Plevris said Greece is “the first country to criminalize illegal residence” and will not allow those denied protection to just roam free.

“Those who are not entitled to asylum will be detained,” the minister told a local broadcaster, adding that Athens will “operate within the law but will go to its limits to protect the borders.”
He also described the situation in Libya as the biggest problem faced by his country and the EU. According to Plevris, around 550,000 people have gathered there and are now seeking to enter Europe.
In February, Plevris announced that it was working with Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Denmark to create “return hubs” for rejected asylum seekers outside of the EU’s borders, with Africa being the preferred destination.
Libya became a key transit point for human trafficking and migration to Europe via the Mediterranean following a NATO-backed uprising in 2011 that led to the overthrow and assassination of longtime ruler Muammar Gaddafi. The EU has struggled to manage the migration crisis since 2015, with Greece, Italy, and Spain receiving the highest number of arrivals across the Mediterranean.
A friend of mine lost custody of his kid after his ex accused him of assault. The police investigation was thrown out for lack of evidence, but that didn't bar the family court from permanently denying him access to his daughter.

Gold has value because it's basically unique. It's almost completely unreactive so found in it's natural form, it doesn't oxidize or spoil. It keeps forever, and it also rare enough where you don't need to hold 20 tonnes to be worth anything. Platinum also has similar qualities and is a similar price.

I agree the problem is the government, but 1/6th of the money for benefits is going to immigrants. It's something like 1.3 million people 3/4 of which have never worked. They are a massive and growing drain on the economy. That's not even counting the hotels up and down the country which they have filled with foreigners. There is nothing wrong with immigration if you are picking skilled workers that will contribute, these people barely speak English and come from medieval backward countries. They aren't coming to work, they are coming for the freebies. In many cases they are criminals who have fled prosecution in other countries. Then there is the issue the councils and government prioritized social cohesion over the safety of women. So they basically let grooming gangs abuse tens of thousands of vulnerable women, committing the most vile atrocities and turning a blind eye because they didn't want to be called racist. Literally hordes of foreign pedos abusing women. It's insane, and the British people have had enough.
