If you want link I could find it but really can't be arsed |
I'm surprised to hear that because I remember there were rallies in Germany by immigrants and their children, many children being in their 40s and had never lived or worked in their "homeland" of Turkey. After WWII Germany, like Britain, needed manpower to replace men killed in action - Germany made it clear that a work visa was needed to be domicile in their country and as you say if there was no work after six months the visa expired and the migrant had to return home. The EU passed legislation which meant Germany had to change its laws - apparently they didn't.
