We should present the Expo, which opens today, with all its problems and its opportunities. Instead we have a duty to report incidents of yesterday and the dangers of today, since they came from all over Italy and from many foreign countries to challenge the very existence of the event, more or less qualified as the most advanced expression of capitalism murderess , or something like that.
1 But nobody died.
No, we’re doing and wanting to impress by a thousand people, not all young (there are three Germans expelled and one of the three is 52 years old) and not all compact behind the slogan No Expo yesterday black bloc and social centers at some point they came to blows, for reasons not clear, perhaps because the black bloc were exaggerating with vandalism.
2 It takes a precise record.
Well, in front of the Castello Sforzesco is the Expo Gate yesterday morning several types detached from the party just before the parade from Largo Cairoli wrote in front of the tent structure (put there to give information to tourists ): “# 1m no expo” where # 1m should translate “May 1″. The statue in the center of the square was covered with a flag, two protesters, arrampicatisi roof Expo Gate have exposed the banner: “Great Event equal Grande Bufala. No Expo: another world is possible”. The procession then marched directly towards Via Melchiorre Gioia. There was a van decorated with fake packaging of chips McDonald’s, among men and women masked in order to tease Enel, Coca Cola and other companies sponsor the Expo. Viale Majno was attempted an assault on the headquarters of Manpower, the company that hired the young on behalf of the Expo, has triggered Celere with a couple of positions. Journalists, for the occasion, have remedied some slap. A notary in suits, evidently with considerable sense of humor, has a balcony facing the flag. From below they pelted with eggs and empty plastic bottles. Once he gets a little smear, the good bourgeois returned home, shaking his head slightly. The agents searched a bit ‘of apartments suspects – who exercise have made too assiduously in recent days -, arrested a woman, kidnapped mace, flammable liquids, etc. Those responsible for public order are afraid above all for today.
3 What should happen now?
There will be a procession from Via XXIV Maggio along Via De Amicis and via Carducci, arriving in Piazzale Cadorna. The police will prevent deviations towards the center. They all say certain arrival of twenty-thirty thousand people. The protesters claim that their protest is called “The Five Days” of Milan, in memory of those of 1848, without that there is no Austrian Radetzky to hunt. In the dock are well Renzi and the Jobs Act.
4 speak the Expo itself.
The Milan Expo is titled: ” Feeding the Planet. Energy for life “and will develop many topics in this area, from agriculture to food production. It will remain open until 31 October.
