My thoughts are he didn’t see this coming:

Denmark plans to put “unwanted” refugees on a remote, uninhabited island once used for contagious animals https://t.co/noTOmcootm

Riiiiight.

Looks like the progressive liberals are going to have to find a new “ideal” country.

According to this:

A controversial plan by Denmark’s government is proposing banishing “unwanted” illegal immigrants to a remote island that once was home to contagious animals.

The deal, part of a 2019 finance bill before parliament, seeks to move the migrants to uninhabited Lindholm Island, two miles off the southeast coast of Denmark, CNN reported.

“Our hope … is that people outside Denmark will understand that Denmark is not a very attractive place to seek asylum, if you are of refugee background, mean to cause harm, or incite crime,” spokesperson for the right-wing Danish People’s Party, Martin Henriksen, told CNN.

The deal between the center-right government and the DPP would see the former facilities on the island, which included a research center for contagious and seriously ill animals, replaced by an immigration center that could initially house 100 residents.

“When you are unwanted in Danish society, you should not be a nuisance for regular Danes,” Danish immigration minister Inger Støjberg wrote on Facebook, explaining that certain migrants “are unwanted and they will feel it.”

The migrants “will be getting a new address,” Støjberg added.

They’re really not messing around, are they?

According to CNN:

According to a government statement, the new center will house migrants who have what is known as “tolerated stay” status, meaning they do not have a residence permit but cannot be deported for other reasons, including threats to their life if they are sent home; those who are set to be deported due to criminal activity or for national security reasons; and foreign fighters and rejected asylum seekers convicted of breaking certain laws.

Don’t like it? Don’t move here. It’s as simple as that.

And while many are losing their minds, Finance Minister Kristian Jensen is pushing back against complaints that “the new facility would be like a prison.”

“Many of them are restricted by regular compulsory attendance that they need to abide by, because we need to know where they are located,” he said, noting that the government is responsible for keeping track of those who have committed crimes.

“Denmark is an island,” Jensen, of the Venstre party, told CNN. “We have lots of islands and lots of Danes living on islands. None of them feel this is a violation of their rights.”

Henriksen echoed the sentiment, saying the decision is in the “best interest” of the country’s citizens.

“We are doing what we believe is in the best interest of Danes, and if it comes down to choosing whose interest to protect — then we will take care of our own first,” he said. “But it will, of course, be up to the Danish government to determine what lies within the conventions.”

He also hopes the example of putting one’s own citizens first, as President Donald Trump has boldly espoused, will be followed by others.

“I hope it will inspire other countries to do the same,” Henriksen said. “If they want any advice they are always welcome to call. We want other countries to tighten up their rules too. We believe it is in everyone’s interest to do that.”

Libs are outraged:
