How many European countries can you list that have stricter immigration policies today than 20 or 30 or 50 years ago? I can't list a single one. How do you square this with your claim that right leaning ideology is "taking hold"? If anything the actual data points to massively loosened immigration laws and massively loosened penalties for choosing to evade immigration laws.

The right-leaning side is taking hold very recently, is what he probably means.

  I can't list a single right-leaning European country government.

      Neither government is right wing.

        Right vs left wing, from the very origin of the term, have always been about the two sides in one given country.

    The discussion was about immigration in particular.
