Hope walks along the Fiom Loris Campetti -
the poster "We do not give numbers, count on you." Bella found this Fiom in controversy with the ministers predicted that between 20 and 40 thousand people. We in the manifesto we have consulted and have concluded not to be able to count so many people, workers and students' united in the fight, "domestic workers and migrants, seniors who have earned those rights which today would remove their children and grandchildren. Some speak of a million, but go I know. And most importantly, who cares. Yesterday in the streets and squares of Rome has walked a hope we can change. Hope that does not find the hotel in the "Policy" but today has a proud partner of travel: the Fiom.
"Better to fight dancing to live on my knees." Will be those of the workers of pranksters who improvise a Pomigliano Tammuriata in Republic Square? But no, they are Chejan Celen, "Gypsy reckless' and girls included in a literacy project of the Roma. I am Italian by three generations but have no right to be for our law.
why parade with metalworkers and even perform in the beautiful dances rate of gypsy music, because the Fiom put at the center of one of the most extraordinary events in the history of Italy own rights. Those of the workers to work with dignity, worthy of the name of the trade unions to bargain, the students studying and teachers to teach, to recapture the precarious future for the queue now denied, of migrants to be considered equal to other people. All bearers of social rights, civil, and citizenship. Indivisible rights to be defended and often in an Italy win re-founded on classist and unfair privileges.
Drag the emotion of the square Maurizio Landini, the new secretary general of the Fiom, when he says that what is happening in Rome and in Italy, the question of collective dignity, participation, democracy and we must thank, first and the Fiom, the workers of Pomigliano and Melfi who have not bowed his head in front of the arrogant claim of the owner to exchange work hypothetical with certain rights. The rights, if any, should be extended to all else is reduced to privileges.
Who is in the streets, as these workers of Fiat, will not or does not want to bow your head. Two endless processions have told so many things in a careful and Rome finally here and there is also a participant. The effort to work and live in a cruel crisis, managed to be more ruthless because a government "servant", as it is written on many signs. A few bit 'unfair. Servant, "the masters", of course, "Marchionne Chetnik, Bonanni Butler to say that the service of man alleged miraculous social model of Fiat's" servants "there are many. More than against Berlusconi, the square is red Fiom against a social and political model in which the worker is purely dependent variable, appendix of the machines that work and enrolled at the same time fighting with the power of blackmail in a global war that is class but among enemy ships where they're all together, sir, managers and blue collar workers to fight against another ship models in the same way to win, like the other, god of the market. Mors mea your life, we are at war. We talk with the workers of 'shipyards in struggle "that explain how the layering of the ship class is because there are those who rows and dividing the dividend, but it is already" at the time of its construction' to hold migrant workers without rights , to close-ups employees of contractors and subcontractors, and only the upper floors of "our" workers. But are heavily with the Fiom and not have it off because they know that the enemy is the owner and his foremen. This place thinks and cries against a social model that focuses on war between the poor, unemployed and cassintegrati against migrants. A social model in which democracy must be "ruler" and is both a withered optional, available only for the wealthy. All power in the hands of few, in politics as a university, as in the factory districts. Berlusconi can not stand the hundreds of thousands of workers, students, retired persons occupying the capital, and not send it to him to say. But fear, perhaps even more of Berlusconi, the party of true power: to Marchionne, Marcegaglia Montezemolo and that "may also be allied to some, but not of this square," said a young man from a community center in Turin.
is obvious to see that parade Emergency calls for the withdrawal of our troops from Afghanistan, since the Fiom is for withdrawal. It is obvious that law because it calls for extensions Free Fiom asks law, indeed says that the crushing of the production cycle with the proliferation of contractors and subcontractors are encouraged to take the lift to the economy by the crime. Migrants looking for home, work and rights and are now scattered in pieces now concentrated on marches. In Fiom see a house. Ostiense Fiom the footage of Reggio Emilia is strictly red tricolor flag but not by the presence of indigenous workers, Africans and Asians. From the Veneto fell in both the mass of Landini that young workers of the social centers, as well as the Marches. The pride of Fiom, first of all. Shouted from Melfi, from Pomigliano from Mirafiori, more pissed off by the piece, which opens the parade in Piazza della Repubblica, Termini Imerese in the choir sings "sciuri, sciuri, sciuri throughout the year, Marchionne and goes to u jettari blood." States that the secretary of the Sicilian Fiom "we throw the means to sweat blood." And we believe. The pensioner
of Macerata and reckless gypsy, the pacifist and the Trentino cassintegrati autorecluso Asinara, the No Tav of the Susa Valley and even sellers of whistles ask one thing: the reunification of the struggles which intersects with the reunification of the work requested by the workers arrived, once again, and more and more and decided in Rome. "Enough with the escort and homes in Monaco," calls for a cartel. Needless to say what should be occupy the political, labor, democracy, human rights, rule of law. "The contracts, for god," cries the senior Abruzzo. But there are those who asks, "10-100-1000 Same" in procession carrying fake eggs.
of miracles yesterday if they have seen many in Rome: the organizers, who are fighting for water and the public commons, who leads the battle against insecure who asks a citizen's income, who wants a free school and public who asks for prison work for themselves and their masters (the masks dell'Eutelia), all these pieces of the world have started to walk together. There are those who speak of "the spirit of Genoa. Needless to say, even the Fiom, the G8 in 2001, there was with those who shouted "another world is possible." Roman
The second miracle is that all these questions from the stage and sensitivity were collected in the intervention of Maurizio Landini, a special worker who can speak to his people and the people of multicolored Piazza San Giovanni. "There is a demand for change to which we must give an answer." Like the Communists, many of the PRC but also of the PDCI, the Pcl, left-wing critics. Like Vendola and Sel, perhaps also like the three heroes parade in drag as many flags of the Democratic Party. And the "new development model" of Landini Like the environmentalists, with or without a green flag. All
ask the same thing: the struggles must move ahead to the general strike. Sooner rather than later. Remember him relentlessly to the Secretary General Guglielmo Epifani his last speech as head of the CGIL.
are no heroes, however, are examples. Pampered by everyone, proud, loud, determined, happy even. They are the workers of Pomigliano, those of the No to Marchionne that started all this mess that has restored hope to the country. Rather, the good people. Pampered also fired three of Melfi who won the case but that the owner takes out of the factory. There is also manifest in the square, with its clubs and its journalists, its stand, and his cry of pain. We are very well-received in the square, and even the stage is those who remember the strength of a newspaper friend of the workers, a newspaper without masters, without parties and without money. A newspaper, how and with who knows how many of these Italian immigrants and of good hopes.
