COPENHAGEN Cheap Bradley Roby Jersey , June 28 (Xinhua) -- The Danish immigration laws and policies towards refugees will be tightened under the newly formed government, led by Lars Loekke Rasmussen who took office as prime minister on Sunday.
"Our cost on immigration has increased significantly, and the number of asylum seekers has risen sharply in the last few years," the government announced in a strategy paper outlining its future policies.
"We will make sure that a new, tight and consistent immigration policy will ensure an open Danish society for those who can and will integrate in our society. But we also want to close the doors to those who will not" Cheap Darian Stewart Jersey , according to the 35-page paper titled "Together for the Future".
The government's first step is to fast track legislation to make it less attractive for incoming refugees to seek asylum in Denmark, aiming primarily at refugees from Middle East countries and from Africa.
"We will introduce a new integration allowance for newly arrived refugees and family reunification and people who have been in Denmark less than seven years. The allowance will be on the same level of the benefits we give students", Rasmussen said at a press conference on Sunday, shortly after he introduced the new Cabinet to Queen Margrethe II at Amalienborg Castle, the queen's residence.
In addition Cheap Brandon McManus Jersey , the government will introduce new and stricter rules for family reunification in Denmark in the near future, probably during the autumn.
"The requirements will be tightened for foreigners who have less chance to integrate into Danish society. We will also provide new and stricter requirements for foreigners who applies for permanent residence and Danish citizenship", Rasmussen said.
The government's call for tightened asylum procedures is seen as a gesture towards the right-wing Danish People's Party which became the largest blue-bloc party in Denmark at the parliamentary election on June 18.
The government aims to reduce the total cost on foreigners with at least 1 billion kroner annually. (1 U.S. dollar = 6.68 Danish kroner)
If you happen to be planning that once in a lifetime adventure, then why not think about a Europe break next year? Forget Italy, France Cheap Todd Davis Jersey , Spain, London is the place to go to, and what is more the city (in addition to a few out of town venues) is hosting the 2012 Olympic Games.
What could be more thrilling that holidaying in one of the worlds most unique capital cities, home of the Queen, Princess Diana Cheap Domata Peko Jersey , Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square and a lot more? This city of culture has a lot to offer and has never been so tourist-friendly and prepared to take care of it鈥檚 tourists.
The London Olympics will take place next July and August and will principally be centred on the Olympic Village in London’s well-known East End. If you happen to be feeling adventurous, you’ll be able to plan a holiday to soak up not just the Olympics Cheap Ronald Leary Jersey , but the whole United Kingdon too. Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales all make for beautiful day journeys or week 2 destinations and travel across the UK is straightforward and cheap.
There may be a lot to do; typically it鈥檚 difficult to know where to start. Here鈥檚 our dream Itinerary;
Week One Choose an airline like British Airways and fly in to London Heathrow or Gatwick. You’ll be able to either stay in a hotel, or rent a local property from a site like London Games Rentals. Be careful to book this part of your trip early though because the Olympics will entice many more guests to London than normal and accommodation will probably be scarce, particularly after the Easter break. Some business insiders are forecasting an additional 500,000 guests to London as a direct result of the games and that鈥檚 on top of the normal increase in tourism at this time of the year. Factor in the weak pound and it will likely be busy. Perform some research in to where the various Olympic events are actually being held as sports such as soccer Cheap Colby Wadman Jersey , sailing and shooting are not going to be hosted in the Olympic Village.
The first week can be spent following the Olympic events and visiting London. The atmosphere will be electric and there’s masses to do.
Try the popular haunts such as the London Eye and Madam Tussauds, visit the free museums and gallaries such as as the Natural History museum, the Science museum or Tate Modern.
Week Two What鈥檚 great about London is that鈥檚 it鈥檚 perfectly located to do numerous different things. We鈥檇 advocate in the second week that you lease a car and go see the United Kingdom. Try and end up at a different departure airport, say Edinburgh or Dublin to give you a greater likelihood to see everything. Our journey would begin with Brighton, located on the South coast of England. Brighton is an exquisite English Victorian seaside town that boasts its own pier and amusement area.
Next day a 3 hour journey Cheap Jared Veldheer Jersey , by way of Stonehenge to Bath to see this pretty old town. Famous for its Roman Spa and Old World feel, a visit to Bath won’t ever be forgotten. Stay for a couple of days and get used to the West Country’s lifestyle, it is a slower paced, and remarkably soothing. Make sure you take a day trip to Wales and use the old Severn Bridge.
Lastly, we’d suggest ending in the stunning metropolis of Edinburgh Cheap Connor McGovern Jersey , home of the Scottish parliament, and of course Edinburgh castle. Fly out from Edinburgh airport and you should have had the most superb holiday, and seen the greatest show on Earth – The London Olympics 2012.
