EUROPEAN Union judges provoked outrage last night by banning Britain from deporting asylum seekers back to Greece.
The European Court of Justice ruled that handing over would-be refugees could infringe their human rights.
Angry critics branded a “disgrace” and a “mockery” the decision which piles pressure on over-stretched frontier controls. Greece is a key entry point over EU borders for illegal immigrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East heading for Britain.
It is feared the ruling could lead to an explosion in “asylum shopping”, where claimants make multipleapplications to try to stay in the EU.
Tory MP Priti Patel said: “This decision is an absolute disgrace that flies in the face of common sense. Once again, European judges are making a mockery of human rights.”
Alp Mehmet, of the think-tank MigrationWatch, said: “This is the sort of absurdity that we have come to expect from the European courts. Common sense should be applied here, but they have failed to show any.
Greece is an EU country and has been for a long time; to suggest that someone’s human rights are going to be infringed by being sent there beggars belief |

“Greece is an EU country and has been for a long time; to suggest that someone’s human rights are going to be infringed by being sent there beggars belief.”
The row erupted yesterday when the Luxembourg court – the EU’s highest legal authority – upheld claims of asylum seekers in the UK and Ireland, including an Afghan who challenged being sent to Greece last July.
Thousands crossing the Turkish frontier into Greece are held in often degrading conditions in camps while claims are processed.
Tory James Clappison of the Commons Home Affairs Committee said the camps were “terrible” but insisted that Britain should not be penalised..http://www.express.co.uk
