8.30 am, we are in Piazza Signoria in four, armed with placards and discover wind, and we perched at the entrance of Palazzo Vecchio. A bit numb 'from the cold, a bit intimidated' by the strange movements in the early morning: the square is full of brigade and police cars of all kinds (carabinieri, police, financial police, with the brigade van holidays) and they all move very rushed. A traffic warden whispers to a colleague: "Let them go, but without the strength ..." Immediately after a policeman enters the gate of the palace graduated to the old cry of "bait out first platoon. "At first it concern, then roaring laughter : The platoon is made up of fighters ready to celebrate, fanfare, flags folk, with goose-step out of the palace, and away towards unknown horizons .. . It 's time for souvenir photos!
escaped the threat of forced removal , we understand that it is the party for 153 years of municipal police, take position around the door, first approached by a separate gentleman with a dog, and after half an hour of words seeks to take part with a sign saying "Mayor stinker", but very gently is asked to desist from one of the hunger strikers.
It closely resembles it, in any order during the morning, various friends, another gentleman with a dog that tells us "you have nothing to do," pronounced the same sentence a lady waiting in the car in front of the building , and stays there for about three hours ... There arises naturally the question that questions were a bit 'introspective, as it did not seem that they also have special rush jobs!
A gentleman I shakes hands and makes us compliments, another English, congratulated not only for the content of signs but also the shape , says that it is rare in Florence can write in English corretto e quello è scritto proprio bene. Infine un anziano napoletano (che sia il solito che hanno incontrato Camilla e Lorenza?) che vorrebbe che manifestassimo per il problema meridionale . Ci fermiamo a parlare con lui perchè è molto simpatico anche se ci dice che dovremmo studiare di più se ancora non sappiamo che Israele è nato prima della Palestina e che i palestinesi non hanno voglia di lavorare: pare secondo lui che sia notizia risaputa.
Con lui affrontiamo il tema del razzismo in Italia , spiegando ad un gruppo di spagnoli che si fermano a chiedere informazioni, lo strano fenomeno per cui "grazie agli immigrati Southerners feel more Italian, "as that is racism, holding fast to its principles of exclusion and stereotyping, and spread its effects gradually about the latest in the chain, so when they reach the southern Italians become vucumprà, which become Senegalese traders rapists when they arrive, they become hard-working Albanians when they finally reach the window cleaner!
Romanian migrants to do is wait another wave of immigration making them among the effects, go up the slope of injury! Eventually the Spaniards say they are satisfied with the debate, or maybe just dazed. In general, tourists look at us and ask for a little ' amazed that you can just make such an order, ask questions about the illegality and legality, and we are smiling to us, that the law seems a bit' fuzzy a term , seamless, fluid and fluctuating depending on what you need, a concept that goes with everything, casual and elegant at the same time.
the day progresses, we laugh a lot, despite the wind and hungry, we invite all the big dinner on 17 October and also talks about the votes on the welfare package-on security package, the pedestrian areas clogged with cars, in short maybe it's also an opportunity to make a word with the others, resume the healthy habit for a few hours to confront, reflect, look around.
One challenge: the truck "delight catering food that downloaded incessantly. These days we can be, will not be a puff that can stop us!
