Apparently the "refugees" -- most of whom are actually economic migrants from Asia and Africa -- aren't happy with the way they're being treated. They torched the tents at the camp to protest at the slow process of registering them and moving them to the Austrian border, witnesses said.
They have also complained of a lack of food, water and blankets. "Where are the free houses?", they seem to be saying. "And the cars?"
Last week Hungary closed its border with Croatia and Serbia and refused to let any more migrants cross, citing security concerns. As a result, the migrants have been diverted to Slovenia on their way to western Europe. Slovenian authorities say they have been overwhelmed by the nearly 20,000 migrants that have arrived since Friday. All they can handle, they say, is 2500 per day day.
The Slovenian army and the police are working to manage the flow, but aid agencies have been warning of dire conditions as bottlenecks develop at border crossings along the route, just as temperatures are beginning to drop. But there is no sign that the numbers of migrants and refugees is slowing.
Politically correct footnote: Walt found this story on the BBC News website. The Beeb, always careful to be absolutely PC, adds this "Note on terminology: The BBC uses the term migrant to refer to all people on the move who have yet to complete the legal process of claiming asylum. This group includes people fleeing war-torn countries such as Syria, who are likely to be granted refugee status, as well as people who are seeking jobs and better lives, who governments are likely to rule are economic migrants."
