The magic of politicians: it seems they introduced a new law that allows the rejected asylum seekers to stay in Germany if they prove that they are "still learning."
That's the background story behind the following sentences of the article:
"Mathias Middelberg, the interior affairs spokesman for the parliamentary group of Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union, said the acceptance of rejected asylum seekers into the workplace “sends the wrong signal”."
Now, why is the background not explained, don't ask me. But always try to find the reliable sources when you have the impression that the story misses something.
On another side, it doesn't sound too bad, if the following is really true:
"the new law would allow asylum seekers to stay in Germany for 30 months as long as they have enough work to secure their living and are considered "well integrated.""
The devil is still in the details: is "enough work" really a criterion, or is just the proof that there's some education attempt enough, etc.
> The law is to let in skilled non EU labour.
That's what you'd think only if you just read the name of one law. By the way, the U.S. politicians used similar tricks, many times, and my favorite example is: the "Patriot Act" was not about the "patriots" but was made to allow the spies to spy more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriot_Act and the name should have suggested "if you are against that then you're being unpatriotic."
