Now we know why our 'weak handed' government are proposing a transition period, to see it through to the end of the EU. 
Europe's migration crisis: Could it finish the EU?
The longer they try to solve the migration problem by paying (bribing) other nations to not send or allow the migrants to reach the EU the more likely the far right will gain public backing and we know where that usually ends. 
Maybe we should start a national service like the French, but for all those layabouts on benefits that are too feckless to work. It would solve the NHS problem too, as well as the ridiculous amounts being paid out in housing benefit or working tax credits. They've already been re-evaluating all those claiming disability benefits (all the dossers in the pubs suddenly disappeared when they were found to be fit enough to work after all). Stop the piss takers and the system works as intended.
Edit: Forgot to say, I think Merkel's solution will be to issue all the migrants with EU passports so they can then get to the UK fast tracked. All part of the brexit negotiations.

"The fragility of the EU is increasing," warns EU Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker. "The cracks are growing in size."
Migration pits southern Europe against the north.
Migration slashes the EU from east to west too.
Which brings us back to the threat to Schengen.
Gloomy German government sources told me they gave the project a three out of 10 chance of survival thanks to the increasingly nationalistic nature of many European governments.
"And if Schengen does fail," they predict, "that would be the beginning of the end of the European Union."
