George Clooney's wealthy neighbours in the Alpine beauty spot of Lake Como say their Italian idyll is being ruined by the influx of hundreds of migrants to a makeshift camp on their doorstep.
The picturesque area is best known as a hide-away for Clooney and a multitude of other Hollywood A-listers includ Brad Pitt, wife Angelina Jolie, and pop superstar Madonna.
But a clamp-down by Switzerland on illegal immigrants entering the country from Italy threatens to turn this chic resort into a frontier town overrun by the homeless and desperate.

‘We don’t want ANY refugees here’: George Clooney’s super rich Lake Como neighbours say Italian idyll is being RUINED by migrants on their doorstep after Switzerland closes its border
NIMBY ! :o)
Place pork grinds all over with a sign about what it is.
(cue Deputy Dog: hehehe)
I’d like to see this take place in one of the exclusive areas Michael Moore has a house in, lol.
Where will the super rich go when Trump becomes president?
Clooney’s neighbors ... doing the job a phony Hollywood lib won’t do.
They should be told to feed them and let them use their bathrooms
Invite them in Mr. liberal social conscience Clooney! BBQ but no pork! Tents would be great. Extended vacation.
Schadenfreude
George and Amal Clooney had a poignant encounter with three Syrian refugee families during a trip to Berlin last month. Their meeting was filmed and a video was released by the International Rescue Committee on Tuesday, showing the power couple speaking to refugees.
Amal, a human rights barrister, revealed to the group: “My own family is from Lebanon and they also ran away from a war, and were lucky enough to be accepted by a European country in 1982 when the violence there was really bad.
George, who said it was “shocking” that the crisis still continues five years on, is committed to raising awareness about the refugee crisis. The actor was in Berlin to promote his new film Hail, Ceasar! but took time off the red carpet to champion the cause close to his heart.
On the same day that George and Amal met the refugees, who are now living safely in Germany, the couple also had a private meeting with German chancellor Angela Merkel. The trio were joined by former UK foreign secretary David Miliband, who now heads the aid group International Rescue Committee.

They really feel for the refugees (as long as they live somewhere else).......
These snobby Euros will want these refugees to scrub their shitters.
Turning Lake Como into Jersey City. How sad.
Don’t worry George, your security team will keep those whom you claim to care about from getting too close.
” all these new people.....”
Isn’t Clooney also basically a “Refugee”? Didn’t he flee when Bush was in the White House?
Just until the migrants find they’re surrounded buy Rich people with lots of great stuff
Clooney has a big estate- he can set up some tents for them, until they can build more permanent structures.
