> So large numbers of immigrants have a destabilizing effect on society They do and that is plain to see across Europe. That's an observation. Burying your head in the sand only makes things worse and actually plays into the far right's hands, like also calling people names (eg. labeling them racist or xenophobic) because they have concerns, which can be valid. Certainly, asylum laws and procedures are being abused, that is not perception. For instance here in the UK there are apparently 23,000 pending asylum applications made by... Albanian citizens. So clearly migrants have realised that claiming asylum currently immediately stops them from being treated as 'illegal immigrants' and allows them to stay while their application is pending... And the situation looks similar across Europe.
