Article reports that local authorities in Italy have started expelling Romanian immigrants, November 2007, under a tough decree that the government hurriedly issued in order to calm the public uproar concerning the brutal murder of a woman outside a Rome railway station. The centre-left government in Italy is accusing an ill ­prepared European Union of failing to anticipate a 'mass exodus' of Romanians since the country’s entry into the EU in January 2007
