Then you may have employers who would prefer to hire Swedes and so on and you end up with a high unemployment rate among the newcomers that does not necessarily reflect their willingness to work.

Edit: Also news about Morocco. The country agreed to a new system to send Moroccan citizens back there. Around 10.000 apparently came last year, mostly among the refugees with fake Syrian passports. The acceptance rate of moroccan asylum applicants is apparently only 3.7%. They want to identify them as Moroccan citizens via their fingerprints which are saved in Morocco for biometric passports.

With free education and a whole slew of programs (including one that will pay 80% of your salary, so your employer does not have to) there comes a point where we have to discuss the will of the people who stand outside. I do not think you qualify as a newcomer having spent the better part of a decade in the country. If you want to work you will be able to get a job in 8 years given all of the government measures which are available, from salary subsidies to start-up assistance to targetted education in order to become qualified for crafts etc. Hell we even have a program where we pay to have people sent down to Germany to learn a trade (and German). If there is a will there is a way, and "structural discrimination" simply cannot account for 75% not being full-time employed (and 50% not even working 1 hour per week).

Very welcome to see that Morocco is going to cooperate with having their citizens return! I presume this will only be for the adults, but it is better than nothing. Maybe that will also help with identifying the age of the "minors" engaging in gang criminality on the streets of our major cities.
