Italy has warned the EU to be ready for a huge avalanche of ‘refugees’ due to the civil war in Libya.

Italy’s foreign minister Enzo Moavero, has written to EU leaders to expect a ‘large and sudden flows of migrants’ from the North African nation.

The Libyan government has also warned that 800,000 migrants could attempt to cross the Mediterranean if the fighting continues.

Since Gaddafi was deposed in 2011, Libya has been marked by instability and violence.

Rival Islamist factions battle it out for control of the nation.

Slave trading and Sharia Law have also made an appearance.

Enough is enough. 

It's time to close Europe's borders before we are swamped.
