Today's Video Focus: Migrants are a big issue in Matteo Salvini's Italy and could be a
decisive factor in the next election - whenever it comes.
The busiest frontline of migration has traditionally been around the
island of Sicily, a popular tourist destination with a famously shady
past and a convenient geography for the people traffickers. There,
underage girls often arriving from Nigeria are being coerced into the
sex trade.
They are trafficked in a complex web of exploitation that starts as soon
as they leave their home. Our investigation has been out on the streets
of Palermo and talking to those who have escaped the traffickers.
Focus of thre Day Article:
A large commercial law firm will ditch its client account in favour
of a third-party managed account (TPMA) by the end of the year, a
leading payment processor has predicted. Geoff Dunnett, director
of professional services at Shieldpay, said the company worked with
around 30 law firms that already relied on a TPMA instead of a client
account, including three personal injury firms.
