Norwegian Coalition-Government Party calls for Swiss-style referendum on immigration

Inspired by Switzerland’s immigration vote, which has infuriated the European Union, one of Norway’s ruling parties is calling for the country to hold its own referendum on limiting immigration from the EU. On Sunday, Switzerland voted 50.3 percent in favor of re-introducing strict quotas for immigrants from the EU, thus scrapping the policy of free movement within the 28-nation bloc. The surprise choice sent shockwaves across Europe, with Brussels threatening to reconsider its relations with Switzerland and anti-mass immigration activists applauding the result.“I won't take a stance on such a quota system that the Swiss people have voted for. But the idea of a referendum is interesting, and Norway also should have a referendum on immigration,” said Mazyar Keshvari, immigration spokesman for the Progress Party (FrP), which is part of Norway’s Conservative-led government.
“I am quite sure that there is majority support for tightening immigration across Norway's political parties. The polls show that,” he told VG newspaper.
Keshvari is himself a second-generation immigrant. The 32-year-old politician comes from an Iranian family who took refuge in Norway in the aftermath of the Islamic Revolution when he was a child.
Although the Swiss poll prompted calls for similar mass immigration-curbing measures from movements across Europe, Norway has become the first nation where a government party has expressed its support for the idea.
It's looking increasingly like the people's of Europe don't want to become minorties in their own countries - seemingly the tactic of crying 'waycist' everytime somebody says they would quite like Britain to remain Britain or Norway to remain Norway no longer frightens people into agreeing to their own cultural demise. Nobody is against immigration: it's mass, uncontrolled immigration running into the hundreds of thousands that ticks people off. Culture > a few GDP points.
The European Union must really hate all of this though - how dare national parliaments and the great unwashed public have the ability back to control their own borders! It's lucky the Swiss and the Norwegians aren't in the EU as they'd probably have to vote again to give the 'correct' answer aka the one the unelected European Commission wants.
Freedom of movement and Schengen are falling apart before our eyes, good.
Thoughts?
