Multiculturalism utterly failed in Germany, say German Chancellor Merkel

 German chancellor Angela Merkel said in a speech to younger members of her Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party that the "approach [to build] a multicultural [society] and to live side-by-side and to enjoy each other... has failed, utterly failed." and that immigrants should do more to integrate instead. There has been a heated debate recently on this issue since August when Thilo Sarrazin said "no immigrant group other than Muslims is so strongly connected with claims on the welfare state and crime".
