Last week, a report based on yet the most comprehensive survey of ethnic minorities living in Europe conducted concluded that \"the majority experience racism and discrimination on a day-to-day basis,\" with the Roma and Africans at the highest risk. In fact, \"around 90 percent of North Africans in Italy and France reported discrimination, while around 85 percent of Roma living in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Greece said they had been treated with prejudice because of their ethnicity.\" As a group, the Roma reported the highest overall levels of being discriminated against of all groups surveyed.



The Czech Republic \"leads\" the pack with the highest percentage in all of Europe of Roma reporting discrimination.
