"Mr President, France has decided that it does not want vast numbers of uninvited Roma turning up on its doorstep, but they were invited. This whole problem is a direct result of Directive 2004/38/EC on the right to free movement of EU citizens.
Any EU citizen has the right to live in another EU state. Like so much EU legislation, it has turned out to be an absurdity in practice. We do not just get highly educated and skilled people with a strong work ethic coming from another Member State. It means we have no protection against the entry of socially undesirable and criminal elements.
French governments have always been enthusiastic about the European Union. They are now finding out the hard way that they cannot have the EU without the Roma. The French now want to join the Italians and say ‘arrivederci Roma’. Well, they cannot. It is better to join with the UK Independence Party and say ‘goodbye European Union’."@en1
