The number of migrants arriving in Italy by boat in the first six months of 2017 was about 85,000, EU border agency Frontex has announced.
Most of the migrants came on boats from Libya, with 24,800 alone coming in June.
The figure is 21 per cent higher than it was in 2016, and went up 8 per cent between May to June.
Most of the arrivals were from either Guinea and Nigeria, followed by people from Ivory Coast and Bangladesh.

I thought Italy was woke on this subject.

Yeah I thought they said a couple of months ago they were refusing to take anymore because they literally couldn't support them. Could have been Greece though.

And I thought the number of migrants trying to hock crappy things on the streets of Rome was bad a few years ago. I can't even imagine what it's like now.

It used to, from 1922 to 1945.

They've been trying to push them into other EU countries. The Czech leader recently made a big speech about it, and why he's telling them to FO.

Europe is big. Let them deal with this if it's what they want. It's turning out great for them. Power through diversity.
