They implemented tighter immigration controls, they spread the new immigrants around for better integration amongst other key changes.
There is a very interesting article that can be found here: https://dnyuz.com/2025/02/24/in-an-age-of-right-wing-populis...
Like I said, it's not perfect and even they know that.

What specifically isn't working in what concerns immigration and how has the way immigration was handled in the last 20 years been a failure? Please provide specific examples.
I live in an European capital and haven't seen any of these issues that immigration is supposedly creating. AFAICT theses issues only exist in the minds of people, and thus in the media.
Regardless, let's say I'm wrong and immigration is indeed creating some issues. Are these issues really so important relative to other problems a state might have that they command the amount of attention immigration gets?
I call bullshit, it's purely a wrong skin color problem.

Immigrants are not why living standards are declining though. Yes, there are obviously logistic problems when populations grow quickly. However the real issue is inequality not immigration.
This trope is getting tiring to be honest. There are very clear issues with immigration in many countries. The issue is that for the last 20 years when these issues where brought up, the main parties just dismissed them and ostracized anyone who dare bring up the subject.
This failure to address the problem is what is fueling the rise of the far right everywhere except in 1 country, Denmark. Why? Because they actually decided to listen to their constituents and do something about it. Is it perfect no? But if you look at the result of their action, the far right in Denmark is comparatively low compared to many other European countries.
It's time for the leaders of many countries to stop pretending that problems don 't exist and acknowledged that the way the immigration issue was handled for the last 20 years is an utter abject failure.
