While Italy’s right-wing govt whips up usual hysteria about a handful of boat people, data confirms: 1) a negative migration rate (10% of Italians live abroad, 9% of residents are foreigners); 2) that it’s a growing trend (+90% since 2006) #GeoBarents https://t.co/LJFfTDjISr
Exciting panel underway feat.
@NicolasSchmitEU, EU Commissioner for Jobs & Social Rights, @laganagan, Dir. Healthy Food Healthy Planet Initiative, and migrant workers from agriculture, meat processing, and domestic work sharing their daily struggles of abusive labour practices.
Hi @eurostarbe, I need a fare breakdown for both legs of my upcoming trip, but your receipt only includes the total (unlike e.g. every airline on the planet). Your customer service form/email is unresponsive & you don't have a number. What should I do?
@CaminoMortera The Italian maritime authorities are actually rescuing lots of people (though less than they used to) and bringing people ashore without anyone turning a hair - it's just happening under the radar as it doesn't fit the narrative
And having worked on migration since 2005, it is so tiresome to see usual pattern: 🇮🇹 govt clamouring for help from/blaming “Europe”, media (& figures like Pope) falling into trap & rescued people being subjected to unnecessary misery while employers beg for more migrant workers

As someone who has tried multiple times to return to Italy & has had to leave again, I fully understand why so many Italians of my generation see no future in an ageing, inward-looking country with a stagnant economy and toxic labour culture
@gavinjones10 Plus this👇Telling millions of NEETs to "find a job" when a) there are none and/or b) they are unqualified & untrained, isn't going to work
@gavinjones10 Anche dare del tu al deputato Soumahoro (storpiandone il nome) - pratica corrente in Italia nei confronti dei non bianchi, ennesima dimostrazione del razzismo diffuso - è piuttosto grave
@DM_Deluca E peraltro facendo cose inaudite di sinistra, tipo essere l’unico Paese europeo a dare protezione temporanea ai non ucraini che vivevano lì: https://t.co/m0QJvdQBSu
@EleonoraCamilli Interessanti anche i vari opinionisti, ecc. che parlano di "fastidi politici" et similia per spiegare l'astio di B. e di Salvini nei confronti di Meloni, senza mai parlare del loro ovvio ed arcinoto becero maschilismo
