ECJ immigration ruling continues to stir controversy in Denmark

The Brussels Journal looks at the recent ECJ ruling that will force Denmark to change several aspects of its strict immigration rules, particularly as they relate to family reunification. The article notes that the ruling, "In practice...means that a Danish immigrant now can rely on his European rights to circumvent the entire Danish immigration legislation."  Meanwhile, a poll for news agency Ritzau shows that 39.4% of Danes would vote "no" in a referendum on whether to scrap the Danish EU opt-out in justice and home affairs. 31.1% would vote "yes" and 30.5% are undecided. However, a poll for Danish daily Børsen published last week shows a majority being in favour of scrapping all four of the Danish EU opt-outs. On Friday, Danish PM Anders Fogh Rasmussen announced that Denmark will not go ahead as planned with referenda on its four opt-outs, citing the "uncertainty" created by Irish "no" to the Lisbon Treaty as the reason.

The world-famous Red Arrows have been banned from appearing at the 2012 London Olympics because they are deemed 'too British'. Organisers of the event say that the Arrows military background might be 'offensive' to other countries taking part in the Games. The display team have performed at more than 4000 events worldwide, but the Department of Culture, Media and Sport have deemed the display team 'too militaristically British.' Red Arrows pilots were said to be 'outraged', as they had hoped to put on a truly world class display for the Games, something which had never been seen before. Being axed from a British-based event for being 'too British' is an insult - the Arrows are a symbol of Britain .

 

The Red Arrows have been excellent ambassadors for British overseas trade, as they display their British-built Hawk aircraft all over the world.

The Arrows performed a short flypast in 2005 when the winning bid was announced, but their flypast at the Games was to have been truly spectacular.   It is to be hoped that common sense prevails.
