4:04 pm
around some policy measures we can push for an ultimate where the tension we could see the government now i think she's by herself in a very very dangerous position election day by the by the lack of success that she had in the loose. and just weeks since the general election the british capital has been hit by a number of mass anti-government protests. was. tensions over the migration crisis have been rising sharply in italy and the mind when activists gathered in rome to protest against refugee shelters in the country but

4:07 pm
responsibility of europe there is far too much immigration it's really cannot support arriving migrants. they do nothing because their policies don't work they just talk. about it they have to help you know we're bearing the financial burden you know i want other states france spain and others to do their part in helping the migrants because this prime minister didn't along he said everyone turns away and pretends not to see to do nothing is wrong europe needs to help out the european union has provided financial aid to it says. and now e.u. have said that they cools to open up the ports along the mediterranean coast such as say. in spain but that is likely to be met with great resistance. and some people suggest that what you were saying is
4:08 pm
little more than. some countries need to do more to do their share in distributing the refugees poland hungary and the czech republic have not accepted a single refugee from a. italy. unfortunately we have no progress on the question of distribution of migrants within the european union and we stand in solidarity with the italian government and the italian people and we will make available all possible assistance and support it seems there's a lot of poor but very little action from the powers that be in europe in the meanwhile italy is continuing to sink under the strain of the michael crisis charlotte people ski r.t. sicily. are to show the diversity also spoke to sarah i do you concur from doctors without borders who described what it's actually like to rescue my currents in the mediterranean. this. pretty didn't spurt how many people have.

4:11 pm
women working as all bears and maids in libya and then things got out of hand people are being kidnapped raped held hostage. over and over and over we had people on board during the last rescue who had been kidnapped over five times in libya they've given everything they had and they were just willing to get out no matter what they said it will if we die it's better than staying in libya it's a call for european countries to take responsibility and to take ownership the e.u. is one union and the have signed agreements to help each other and it does seem like italy is left to handle this by themselves now and italy is crying for help. new german legislation branding both fake news and online terrorist propaganda as criminal activity has been hit with a storm of criticism not least in the country's parliament the green party's warns that social media firms may overregulate while the anti establishment alternative for germany party described it as a dark day for journalism and european digital rights group even issued an open

4:13 pm
