Bank of England ups UK 2018 Growth Forecast

In yet another example of how economic forecasts for Britain continue to be overly pessimistic, the Bank of England has just raised its UK growth forecast for 2018 from 1.6% to 1.8%.

Some have pointed out how this demonstrates forecasts made just 3 months ago aren’t even accurate — let alone the current Project Fear scare stories we’re hearing about for economic predictions in 15 years time.

Italy: Totti, Fendi, Malagò Saved From Returning Resort Land

At Sabaudia

(ANSA) — Rome, February 6 — Italy’s supreme Court of Cassation on Tuesday rejected a bid from the coastal resort of Sabaudia south of Rome to reclaim the sand dunes on which generations of VIPs have built luxury villas.

The suit, which started in 1962, failed because Italy’s former Fascist government awarded the land to other local towns and not to Sabaudia, judicial sources said.

Among the VIPs saved by the definitive ruling are the Fendi family, soccer icon Francesco Totti and the head of the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI), Giovanni Malagò.

Sabaudia, built from reclaimed swampland by Benito Mussolini’s regime, has long been a favoured liberal-leaning watering hole and has been a backdrop of films by the late Michelangelo Antonioni and Bernardo Bertolucci.

EU: 2025 is Ambitious for Serbia and Montenegro to Join in

New strategy for 6 W.Balkans, enhanced pre-accession funds

(ANSA) — BRUXELLES, 06 FEB — Concrete initiatives to support the integration of the Western Balkans, strengthening of pre-accession funds for the region and policies that Serbia and Montenegro will have to adopt to join the European Union by 2025. The European Commission has introduced today an EU strategy for the enlargement to the Western Balkans which involves all six countries. “Although there will be no further enlargement within this mandate, with a strong political will the Western Balkans can move forward on their respective European paths,” the European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said.

Montenegro and Serbia could join the EU in 2025: this is an “indicative” but “very ambitious” perspective, Brussels underlines. The two frontrunners are required to “commit themselves to real and sustained reforms, and to the definitive solutions to disputes with neighbors”. The normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina is “essential” both for Serbia and the whole region, EU High Representative, Federica Mogherini, pointed out. An agreement should be reached by the end of 2019. Kosovo, however, it is not indicated as a potential member country in the document.

Brussels provides six concrete measures in areas ranging from the rule of law to security and migration, from socio-economic development to transport and energy connectivity, digital agenda and good neighborly relations between 2018 and 2020. The EU sets out a financial commitment, with a gradual increase in pre-accession funding to the whole region until 2020. In 2018 the provision of 1.07 billion euro of assistance to the region has been foreseen.

Woman Charged Over ‘Islamic State-Inspired’ Stabbing in Melbourne

A 24-year-old Bangladeshi woman will appear in court, charged over an “Islamic State-inspired attack” following a stabbing incident at Mill Park, in Melbourne’s north on Friday.

Police were called to a home in Callistemon Rise about 4:20pm on Friday where they found a 56-year-old man who had been stabbed in the neck while he was asleep.

The man will undergo surgery today but his injuries were not life-threatening.

His young child was present at the time but was not injured.

Police allege the woman is a Bangladeshi national who travelled to Melbourne on February 1 on a student visa.

She was renting a room at the man’s home while she was studying.

Police are executing search warrants at the home in Mill Park and at another home in Bundoora, where the woman had previously stayed.

However, police said there was no suggestion the residents of the Bundoora home was involved in any way.

Ian McCartney, the acting Australian Federal Police Deputy Commissioner, said police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.

“We will allege this was a stand-alone, Islamic State-inspired attack, designed to cause harm to our community,” acting Deputy Commissioner McCartney said.

Since September 2014, when the national terrorism threat level was raised, police have charged 85 people, including this woman, following 36 counter-terrorism operations around Australia.

Don’t Mix Migration With Security — Gentiloni

Justifying Fascism outside Constitution says PM

(ANSA) — San Benedetto del Tronto, February 9 — Premier Paolo Gentiloni said Friday “let’s not mix the migratory situation we are facing with that of security.” He said “those who are fanning the flames (of anti-migrant sentiment) is finding room.

But we are working on the opposite side. And it we do so we will have the majority of citizens” by our side. Gentiloni added that “justifying Fascism is outside the Constitution”. He said that “no one is minimising criminal actions” such as the murder of Pamela Mastropietro near Macerata but this did not justify the actions of rightist activist Luca Traini who shot six migrants in a drive-by spree.

Italy: 10,000 Refugees in Occupied Buildings, ‘Ghettos’ — MSF

Doctors Without Border says in report on asylum seekers in Italy

(ANSA) — Rome, February 8 — At least 10,000 asylum seekers and refugees in Italy between 2016 and 2017 were living in an estimated 47 “informal settlements”, including occupied buildings, or stranded at the border in the northern cities of Ventimiglia, Como, Gorizia and Bolzano without access to basic necessities and medicines, Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said in a report out on Thursday.

In the report ‘Fuori campo’, or offscreen, MSF said that these asylum seekers and refugees were not part of the official system, although they were residing on Italian territory.

The report said the migrants came from various countries, from sub-Saharan Africa to the Horn of Africa, as well as from Syria, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Some of those surveyed had just arrived in Italy while others had been living in the country for years.

MSF also said that, in some instances, Italian citizens were living in the same place and sharing the same conditions as migrants.

The “informal settlements” cited in the report included abandoned or occupied buildings (53%), open-air accommodation (28%), tents (9%), shacks (4%), cabins (4%), containers (2%), mainly in the Lazio region, followed by Puglia, Sicily, Calabria and Piedmont.

Only 45% of settlements had access to water and electricity.

Small children under the age of five were found in 17 out of the 47 settlements surveyed by MSF, the organization said.

Migrants Defrauded German Taxpayers

An Islamic State flag and drugs were found at several residences after German police cracked down on a ring of young migrants who had used fake identities to defraud German taxpayers.

Police raided the residences of 43 families this week on suspicion that they had participated in a scheme to defraud the government using fake identities. They estimate that around 78 suspects, all under 25 years old, were able to steal 141,000 euros in a coordinated and elaborate scheme, Bild reports.

Investigators found that the suspects had coordinated their scheme through the encrypted messaging app WhatsApp and had used shisha bars to recruit new migrants into the fraud.

The migrants were able to send applications to the government which stated they were entitled to retroactive benefits by using fake application or employment termination letters from various companies, some of which had been insolvent for years.
