Seems like a reasonable response to an established problem. Though I wonder how they define "foreigner".Bored. -

It states that the extra punishment is for 'illegal immigrants'. That's totally justified because they have committed two crimes: the one for which they are tried, and the fact that they are an illegal immigrant.
Anyway, the story of the girl called 'Talula does the Hula from Hawaii' is far more interesting...

It is racist to give one sector of society longer sentences than others for the same crime.
I suppose Italy can get away with it because they do not have our stupid Human Rights laws which were incorporated into our law by New Lie, that go too far the other way.Comment

Er! the Italians aren't illegal immigrants in ItalyOriginally posted by Cyberman View Post
That would be the foreigners (Illegal immigrants) That are being discriminated against because they are being punished for being illegal immigrants as well, see
I don't suppose that it would sit well with Italians if Italians were prosecuted for being illegal immigrants in Italy in an Italian court

If they give them an additional sentence for being illegal immigrants then of course that is not racist, but the text said that they were going to give longer sentences for the same crime. There is a subtle difference.

illegal immigrants convicted of crimes will now face jail sentences a third longer than those for Italians.

One crime for 'mugging' etc = second sentence
As long as the immigrant is sentenced for TWO crimes committed then it is not racist.Comment
