Italy: Refugees go on hunger strike in protest against Italian food

Hunger strike

Migrants protesting about food. It’s a familiar story: this time the asylum seekers housed by the Pisan Red Cross in the former convent of Cottolengo, locked themselves in the building to demand a different way of providing food.

Around fifty immigrants protested peacefully, refusing the food provided by the catering service. The reason? They want to be given payments in cash to buy ethnic food.

“Refugees” going on hunger strike? Hmmm. I think this is what we call a “self-solving problem”.

    1. Bruce, they might find pig slops more palatable. If any government is stupid enough to hand them money, the precedent is set. They will never work, and will be on the take forever.
