Italy has again stopped a boat carrying hundreds of migrants entering its country from

Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini said late last night that the boat, which is situated 30 nautical miles off Malta, will not be allowed to dock in Italy.

The Italian government, only a few weeks old, continues to enact its new policy of turning away ships full illegal economic migrants that are still streaming across the Mediterranean.

Italy has experienced a disastrous social deterioration with the arrival of hundreds of thousands of migrants from Africa, with anti-social behaviour, and crime particularly crimes related to drug dealing, violence and sexual assaults sky rocketing as it has in other EU countries that have seen mass migration from the Third World.

The refusal to accept the migrant ship the ‘Aquarius’ with over 600 migrants earlier this month grabbed headlines around the world. Co-incidentally around the same time a new nationalist, anti-establishment government came to power in Italy a “feminist” government led by Pedro Sanchez came into power in Spain.

Now with Italy toughening its border controls, Spain’s feminist government has stepped forward and opened to the gates to mass migration from Africa and the Middle East.

Italy has again rejected another ship with hundreds of migrants and the government plan to deport up to 500,000 illegal migrants, but the EU may seek to resettle them in other EU states.

The new Italian Deputy Prime Minister has said that the migrants crossing the Mediterranean will now only ever see Italy “on a postcard”.
