Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz has condemned a"disgusting" and"racist" poem, written by a member of his far-right coalition partner, that railed against multiculturalism and compared migrants to rats.
The poem was written by Christian Schilcher, a deputy mayor belonging to the anti-immigration Freedom Party that forms the other half of the country's ruling alliance. It used xenophobic imagery to suggest that migrants should assimilate or"quickly hurry away" from their adopted countries, and was written over a drawing of a rat wearing a long black beard and hat.
