Seven days after the assault on the national headquarters of the CGIL, tens of thousands of people gathered in Piazza San Giovanni in Rome for the demonstration called by the trade unions. At least 60 thousand people took to the streets under the slogan “No more fascisms”, to protest against the attack by neo-fascists and no green pass last week and to ask for more rights and safety at work.
“A demonstration that defends everyone’s democracy. This is the theme ”, declared the general secretary of the CGIL, Maurizio Landini, who walked at the head of the procession which from Piazza Esquilino reached Piazza San Giovanni. “The attack on the CGIL, the attack on the union is in reality an attack on the dignity of work of the whole country. And we are here not to defend anyone but to defend democracy and to extend democracy in our country and in Europe ”, continued Landini, who wore a red tie for the occasion. “It is the first time that I wear a tie for a rally,” said the secretary of the CGIL, greeted by applause on his arrival in the square. “I thank Minister Lamorgese for the work she has done and I also thank the police”, he added, highlighting the need to “design a future that applies the fundamental principles of our constitution”.
According to the general secretary of UIL, Pierpaolo Bombardieri, there are more than 100 thousand people present today in Piazza San Giovanni. “It is an important day, because it reaffirms that the State is anti-fascist, the Constitution is anti-fascist”, said Bombardieri while the general secretary of the CISL, Luigi Sbarra underlined the world of work “as always it will be a barrier against any drift and against any extremism”.
Also present in the square was the Democratic Party, represented by the president of the Lazio region Nicola Zingaretti and by the secretary Enrico Letta, who will not attend the event. The League, on the other hand, will not be present, as announced in recent days. “We will be in the gazebos of the League, not in the square,” said Salvini, speaking of a demonstration that “the left organizes on the day of electoral silence, before the ballot”.
