Drivers fear greater border controls

Nov 09 | 2015

Truck drivers say that they fear greater border controls as a result of the migrant crisis.  The EU is struggling to deal with a large influx of migrants and the Member States are failing to join forces in order to agree on a common and workable solution. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said, “If Europe fails to agree to a fair distribution of refugees, the passport-free Schengen zone encompassing 26 European States would be called into question.”

The re-introduction of border controls across Europe would lead to serious consequences resulting not only in fuelling inflation, but it will also become very costly for everyone. Goods will become more expensive and the bill will be passed on to the consumer.
