I just signed to stop Italy from capping "foreign" children at 30% per class. Kids could be moved away from their friends because of their passport. Parliament can still delete it. Add your name action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-10... Segregation is appalling. With children it is doubly so. Bad move Meloni
