Breitbart: Approximately 1,592 migrants have been removed from a shanty town migrant camp in southern Italy as part of the populist government’s policy to dismantle squatter camps across the country.
The shanty town, formerly located in the southern Italian city of Reggio in Calabria, was bulldozed this week by police following a series of problems stemming from the makeshift camp in recent months, Italian newspaper Il Giornale reports.
Safety concerns at the camp have been a major issue, with fires breaking out over the last few months that have led to three deaths, the most recent being a 29-year-old Senegalese man who died last month.
In the aftermath of the death of the Senegalese man, populist Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini said the government had offered up 133 places in migrant homes but only eight migrants accepted the offer.
“They preferred to stay in the shanty towns, just abuse and illegality,” he explained.
Of the total 1,592 migrants who lived in the camp, 200 have been sent to migrant homes, 460 have moved on their own accord and 923 are currently being housed in a tent city set up by the government. read more

…in what world is a “Senegalese man” a Syrian refugee?
…I mean, this WAS about “Syrian refugees”, RIGHT?
Good! Keep up the good work, Salvini.
That building in the photo accompanying this article sure doesn’t look like a shanty. I imagine it’s one of the Mafia’s illegally built houses; they’re also being knocked down.
^^ No kidding! Those are no bungalows!
Excellent idea. Do that here, starting with Shit-on-the-Street San Francisco.
