Prefects in revolt: we are not scapegoats – The Time

BAD WEATHER: GABRIELLI, CIVIL PROTECTION NOT PIU'OPERATIVA

Criticized, threatened, insulted, removed. Prefects say “enough”, no longer want to be used as scapegoats for the refugee emergency. After the incidents in Rome and Treviso, ask for a meeting with the head of the Interior Ministry in order to obtain guarantees. We are “surrounded by enormous hostility,” target “phrases unworthy of institutional representatives and well-known politicians,” explains the safety representatives on the territory, which say they are “tired of playing the role of scapegoats” and announced: “There we protect at each location. If the security system has held up at this stage of immigration emergency, it is due only to the work of prefects. ”

Claudio Palomba, President of Sinpref, the most representative union of the category, points out that “if the immigration issue becomes a political struggle, the battle to remain in the political . But in the end we are the losers. ” After the announcement of the removal of the prefect of Treviso and “phrases unworthy” directed by Vice President of the Council of the Marches against the prefect of the Capital Franco Gabrielli, the prefectural associations will ask a meeting with Interior Minister Angelino Alfano. “The we illustrate a reality that sees the prefects surrounded by enormous hostility, dealing with an emergency difficult to deal with. Every day – adds Palomba, who is prefect of Lecce – 103 prefectures in the area are working tirelessly to ensure logistical assistance and health care to migrants arriving and we are assigned, sometimes with warnings tight. We must identify them, visit them, heal them, find their accommodation, the government must consider these aspects. We do not want to become the scapegoats of politics. We are used to handle emergency situations, but our work must be recognized. It should not be discharged on the prefects – said the president of Sinpref – the tensions arising from this situation. “

In recent days, the Minister Alfano, at the request of the prime minister, announced the removal of the prefect of Treviso, Maria Augusta Marrosu, “accused” of not managing properly the migrant emergency in its jurisdiction. The measure will be taken at the next Council of Ministers. On the issue of the protests against the accommodation of refugees in Casale San Nicola, Gabrielli had told the media that “the citizens are made to exploit the extremists.” And he added: “I should mention that I only applied consistently a call, while using common sense. So no political exploitation that at this stage they do not need. ” The prefect of Rome, for this reason, has been the target of threats by the vice president of the Regional Council of the Marches League, “Gabrielli a pig of a Communist in the service of the Democratic Party – wrote on his Facebook page Sandro Sapphires – careful that you we scored on our list. We will arrive. Castor oil I would give you so much. ”
