The President of the European Commission
has pleaded with EU countries to open their arms and help the tens of thousands
seeking refugee in Europe. In his State of the Union address this morning, Mr
Juncker told MEPs that Europe’s own history has been marked by millions of
people fleeing persecution and oppression. The Fine Gael MEP Brian Hayes says binding
quotas need to be introduced to ensure every EU country takes their share of
refugees.
