SPAIN: Canary Isles immigration crisis

European Justice Ministers, meeting in Finland, have been wrestling with the dilemma of how to stem the ever-rising tide of illegal immigration from North Africa. The scenes of boat-loads of exhausted and dehydrated refugees being washed up among holidaymakers on the beaches of the Canary Isles have punctuated the summer.
