As I said earlier it isn't about racism or anything else it's about being able to sustain/support everything. Not to mention the simplest of things called physical space...
So Germany are going to take 800,000, we'll probably end up taking a few million but what about France, who is also calling on these 'binding quotas'....to reduce the current 40% (with Germany) being suggested. By my reckoning they should be taking a fairly large chunk of these refugees, if need be the EU can use some of the billions we've supplied it with to support the refugees.
Here's my reasoning, France is literally one of the biggest countries in regards to space in all of the EU, not to mention one of the smallest people per square kilometre (based on 2013 metrics which are likely lower than they are now).
UK - 263
Germany - 225
France - 103
Based on that alone, France can afford to take in a lot more than we can, yet here they are trying to get their quota reduced.
