Former owners of basic income took to the streets (again) against the Meloni government after the subsidy for “employable” beneficiaries was stopped. Demonstrations took place in various southern cities this morning, from Palermo to Naples to Cosenza. In Naples, the march broke the blockade of the police who tried to block access to the highway ramp. About 350 protesters were accompanied by the “Let’s Go” choir. Many climbed over the fences as the police moved to stop the protesters directly on the ramp. Fortunately, the situation did not degenerate.
About fifty unemployed in Palermo moved from Piazza Vittorio Veneto to the regional Labor Department on Via Trinacria, chanting “Shame” against the Meloni government. And again: “Now go home.” “They loaded my card on August 25 and in the afternoon of the same day INPS informed me that they will suspend my income,” one protester told Rosaura Bonfardino. PalermoToday. “Now they say I have to apply for a 350 euro check, but I pay 400 euros in rent. What should I do? Do I pay the bills or not the house? We want a job urgently”.
“Where are we going, what are we going to do?” He wonders if another protester was present at the parade. Who is affected then: “I am crying because I am angry with myself. I went to sell some things for two or three euros. Do I have to live this life at 51?”. According to Toni Guardino of the ‘I just want’ association, messages informing buyers that revenue has been discontinued are a “death signal”. “It means leaving people on the street who can’t even pay the rent for their homes. Many won’t be able to shop anymore, and social services are ghosts. That’s what they say,” he says. for urgent business”.
