The whole migration push on Europe is problematic. It starts off on the false presumptions that : 1. migrants can just move to Europe illegally and stay there; 2. That Europeans are responsible for illegal migrants; 3. That its ok to just run away from problems in one's own country and go suck on the welfare of people in another country. What about staying in one's own country, and taking it back from the corrupt, thieving, oppressive politicians, and working towards making it better? Chase out the economic imperialists and all the other exploiters who claim to be 'investors' who have taken over your countries. Kick them all out. Farm your own land, produce your own goods. Stop pursuing European ideals. There are many poor young Europeans who don't have jobs or much hope for a prosperous future either. Migrants have no right to go there and take the few existing opportunities from them. The economies in Europe are bad, and the lockdowns from COVID made it worse. I'm not sure that these guys on this panel deserve the empathy they're trying to get here. They are criticizing the EU asylum system and claim that they were exploited by the labor system. But in their ingratitude they miss one important point: they should not be in Italy in the first place. The lawyer in this video is a propagandist. She is Italian, and she is saying things that she knows are not true. And saying that she feels guilty is evidence that she is a typical self-hating white liberal. The type who doesn't even think about helping her own Italian youth who can't find a job? There's no doubt in my mind that her investment in all this is connected to some type of intimate relationship that she's in with one of these migrants. The NGOs are full of white women like her who prey on young, black men. There are some very wealthy people living in Italy but Italy is not a wealthy country. In fact, there are a whole lot of poor people living in Italy too. The Italian economy is in the toilet, and unemployment is sky high. Many young Italians have had to move to other countries to find jobs. "Living the dream"...what a joke! The overwhelming number of Europeans are people of average means and they are not 'living the dream' either. The dreams of these Africans are shattered only because they thought that they could just go to Europe illegally and get the fast and easy life. They think that this is what life in Europe is because of movies, tv shows, and fake people on social media. Here's a reality check: it is EXPENSIVE to live in Europe and most people there are not rich. There are many Africans who live happy and successful lives in Africa. I happen to know a few of them.

I'm European an from an upper middle class area and I don't know a single person who owns a ferrari. Those are for the upper 1 percent, just like in africa. Being European doesn't make you rich (unfortunately) and I know people here (European and other) struggling to put food on the table. Struggling to not end up on the streets. Sure, we have healthcare and safety nets. But the system is so complicated that even natives often require help to get all the paperwork done to apply for them. And don't get me started on birth certificates and passports. Even locals can get in real trouble if their house burns down and the hospital/school didn't keep copies. Never mind arriving without them. It is so sad to see the hopes and dreams of these people crushed. They really deserve to be welcomed and given a chance. And not to be used as underpaid black workers (note: there is no connotation to skin color intended here. Black/nera is meant as "under the cover of darkness", "hidden" and should be translated to "illicit work" instead, this is a translation error (false friend) and in no way racist. Just for clarification definitely not justification.)

I am born in Europe in one of the poorer parts and I can tell you that there are people in my country and not only who are living in poverty and are struggling to make ends meet. People from my country work in agriculture in countries like Spain and Italy, they go there legally with a contract and work very very hard, they make some money , pay their taxes and then take whatever money they have left and go back to their countries and look after their families. They are not always treated nice which is very wrong, but they work hard and they are appreciative of the jobs and the opportunity. It is a false pretence believing that if you are illegal in Europe you will be given money and opportunities just because you come from a poor country. No place in the word does that, and it seems to me hypocrite that while everyone is complaining about Europe being so bad they still risk their lives and their children’s lives to come to Europe. I’ve seen countless examples of immigrants coming to Europe legally working hard, paying their taxes and making a life for themselves, those people didn’t have a hand held out for a free life , they educated themselves and worked hard.

[@slicusdadon]

@Amy Paps Many people in cold European countries do NOT really enjoy the cold to be honest. I left for Australia soon as they could have me. The body's temperature is 36.9°C and the further away you are from that the more uncomfortable you going to feel. Below 5°C weather in the UK for half the year and around 13°C for the spring is not great. Snow is a novel for those that don't live in it. I don't miss it one bit.

[@slicusdadon]

@Amy Paps Yes I am black and I get what you are saying about adapting but as someone who grew up there surely I should adapt too? The English are known for constantly moaning about the weather and they are white. It's the pastime there to complain about it because they don't enjoy it. Just because they can handle it doesn't necessarily mean they like it. Millions have left the country for Oz, NZ, SA for the sun and there are heaps here. White Australians here don't really like the cold either they also moan here in the winter when it's not even that cold as they much prefer the heat. It's not just about being black or white, extremes of temperatures aren't conducive for any human being whether they cope better or not. Not sure why you're denying this. Most people prefer warmer climate across the world.

If you truly believe that then explain why UK has a lot of Eu illegal immigrants coming by boats every day. Please answer!

Life in western countries is like trying to surviving while in Africa you are simply living. I am happy living on the farm/village growing organic food. Sad that people are lazy to work, they want to live a fast life. You cannot compare your life with someone else's. Home is just home, change should start from home, there is no need to run away from home. I am aware that most African countries are abundantly blessed with good soil, water and other resources, rather make use of that than trying to live a different life that you never lived. A Ferrari, trending fashion and other materialism will not take you anywhere, you will leave them behind. You cannot compare our African lifestyle to western lifestyle. I hope that our African bothers and sisters open their eyes.

We literally have huge lands in our villages but we leave all that behind to go live in tattered houses in so called developed countries.To me high standard of living is not about having more money,cars,big houses but it is all about eating good foods from the farm,being in contact with nature and so many simple things that we take for granted

It’s so refreshing seeing your comment. I was speaking to a friend just yesterday about Africans been so lazy. We claim to be more hardworking than whites but I beg to differ. With all the lands we are blessed with we refuse to home grow our food and livestock for our daily needs. White folks here in the uk would kill to have such spare of humous soil land in their backyard!! They would literally have personal farms each and everyone of them. African in Africa wants to live like they are in the west and that comes with a great price. Here in the uk people pay space in a massive garden to grow their food it’s called allotments and they take so much pride in doing so . Africans don’t want to put in the work. We want everything done for us . It’s a shame!!

So one of them shows up illegally, gets into university in Italy, then proceeds to write a thesis about how terrible Italy is to him?

These men present a real situation I wish young Africans who would want risk their lives to cross over to Europe hear n think otherwise.. There are many countries in Africa hosting Refugees.. No matter the situation being a Refugee is not a permanent condition.. That's what I believe.

I don't like how the interviewer cuts people off mid sentence and switches to the next person in such a rigid manner. Seems scripted

Almost all interviewers do this when a person start to elaborate on a very interesting point he is cut off.
