Erratic weather and a prolonged dry spell caused Swaziland to record its lowest ever maize harvest in April 2007; although the 2008 harvest was double the size, it is still not enough, and a lack of funds to meet the zooming price of inputs means people might have to go hungry again next year.

FYEG says Italian deportations of EU citizens are a grave violation of fundamental rights
In reaction to the
Italian authorities' deportation of Romanian citizens, the result of
the adoption of a decree allowing for the deportation of immigrants
if deemed to be a threat to public safety , Bartek
Lech, Spokesperson of FYEG comments: Creating a
climate of fear, suspicion and xenophobia, as the Italian government
does with its recent decision, will not do anything to improve public
safety. On the contrary, it will lead to polarisation and
stereotyping, as last week's attacks against Romanians in Rome have
demonstrated. Furthermore, these expulsions are a violation of EU
citizens' fundamental right to freedom of movement, one of the
cornerstones of the European project. Therefore, we consider these
deportations not only as socially and morally unacceptable but also
as a shameful act against the spirit of the EU, if not against its
laws
