    And consider the Mail to be too rigourous in its fact checking...

    If you notice Vetran's link to The Express article has the same video that mine had; where he doesn't say any such thing. It seems if he did say this they don't have it on video.

    It's hard to believe the Swedes would have this sort of knee-jerk reaction.

    Wow, just read the quotes made in the Mail and Express. In both cases when they quote him, the newspapers have put the words "mass migration" in brackets - i.e. He did not say that, they are interpreting it to suit their bias on the story. Of course, when it then gets picked up by other sources, they remove the brackets and hey presto we have a quote.

    So what point are you trying to make?
    Lots of people made that point years ago and were accused of being racist. Now sadly the issue is blowing up and people are coming round to the idea we have been too lax.
