Cecilla Malstrom wants the term 'illegal immigrant' eradicated from the European Union

A SENIOR Eurocrat sparked outrage last night after calling for the phrase “illegal immigrant” to be banned from the European Union.

Cecilia Malmstrom, the EU’s home affairs commissioner, said she wanted to “eradicate” the term from Brussels documents.

She has instructed EU Commission staff to refer to foreigners who break border control laws as “irregular migrants” or simply “people” instead.illa Malmstrom

But her attempt to dictate how the issue of immigration is discussed was savaged last night.

UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage said: “Now the EU is even trying to change the language.

“This sounds like something straight out of the pages of George Orwell’s Animal Farm. It shows that what we are dealing with here is a totalitarian mindset.”

Mrs Malmstrom spoke out about the phrase “illegal immigrant” on Twitter yesterday. She praised the US news agency Associated Press, which dropped the phrase from its handbook on writing style for journalists.

In a message, she wrote: “The EU should follow. I’ve worked to eradicate the term ‘illegal immigrant’ from all commission docs. No human being is ‘illegal’, ever.”

She praised the Associated Press for “a milestone decision”, adding: “Words matter.”

Call them 'irregulars'? Hahahaha! Yeah, they ought to love that one. It doesn't matter what they are called, what they prefer, what they demand. They are what they are and it doesn't change a thing. They are, always have been and always will be seen as illegals.

Let's see, we can call them thieves for stealing identities. Or maybe crooks for stealing American citizen's income and government benefits. Or invaders for being in a country illegally. How about drunks, rapists, criminals in general or as the Constitution of the United States defines them: ILLEGAL ALIENS!!!
