The complaint comes from SILP CGIL, the police workers’ union, “We firmly condemn the violence but it is unacceptable to see the far-right leader giving orders in the square to those responsible for public order”, “The officers cannot be cannon fodder ” denounces the union. So 24 hours after the CasaPound procession, amidst fascist chants and controversy, the trail of poisons grows longer.
“Piantedosi owes the city a lot of explanations”, a furious mayor Lepore had already said in the morning, who had been asking for days not to authorize the black procession, “They sent us 300 black shirts”, attacks Lepore. On the whole matter so far, Piantedosi spoke only last night, after the clashes between collectives and the police, to denounce what he defined as a shameful attack. Salvini is also addressing him today with a very specific request regarding the left-wing social centres: “evict them one after the other, they are dens of criminals, toxic means and violent means, therefore… This is it! and then the problem is the fascists…”
In the same week in which he called the magistrates communists, who disapplied the Safe Countries decree, the league leader defined the social centers as “red ticks” to the unions in the streets. Vannacci agrees with him and asks to make these shameful violent people “non-harmful”.
For the opposition, however, CasaPound is the real trigger, a mistake, or rather a provocation: “What happened yesterday in Bologna demonstrates without a shadow of a doubt that it was an unforgivable mistake on the part of the government and the institutions to grant the fascists the possibility of demonstrating the gold medal of the resistance in the city” says Fratoianni of Allenaza Verdi e Sinistra. Uniting against the plan of an authoritarian state is also the appeal of the 5 Star Movement.
