The Barcaccia in Piazza di Spagna, the Fountain of the Four Rivers in Piazza Navona and then the Trevi Fountain and Palazzo Madama. Four “attacks” in just over a month, not counting the forced stops on the Raccordo and the Tangenziale. The Last Generation activists have become “familiar” with Rome, despite the harsh sentences against gestures that cause damage to the capital’s unique heritage and inconvenience to its citizens, also expressed by the mayor, Roberto Gualieri who again yesterday reiterated “the cause is right, the protest is wrong. Yet the Last Generation environmentalists are “entering his house”. Yes, the one illegally occupied and illegally inhabited in via di Santa Croce in Gerusalemme 55, better known as Spin Time Labs. The building occupied since 2013 that the Capitol would even like to buy to “stabilize” a “social experiment” that has hundreds of thousands of euros in arrears. The meeting, as reported at the bottom of the press release released by Ultima Generazione on the occasion of yesterday’s blitz (this time failed) at Palazzo Madama, will take place on 29 May. In addition to the place and address, «Rione Esquilino Casa Occupita» is specified. Difficult to think about the case.
Not only have the “activities” of this group of environmentalists been concentrated in the capital in the last month, but the day before yesterday, or the day after the “attack” on the Trevi Fountain, a curious note from the Capitoline councilors of the Left Civica Ecologista, Michela Cicculli and Alessandro Luparelli invoked the opening «of a comparison. A moment to listen to the reasons that lead to sensational demonstrations to draw attention to an inescapable problem such as climate change”. A “friend” therefore of the Capitoline left in search of new proselytes. The same one that firmly holds the “command” of the Roman social movements and dictates the line on the management of the city’s assets – public and private. The umpteenth confirmation, yesterday, with a motion – surprisingly also voted by the Brothers of Italy – which invites the mayor to vacate the building occupied by Casapound in via Napoleone III and then acquire it and use it for “activities useful to the community” through the “world of associations”.

An impervious path that chosen by Roberto Gualtieri’s Democratic Party, indulging a left that is now aiming for the environmentalist electoral pool. «It is right to underline the importance of and the fight against climate change – the mayor of Rome reiterated again yesterday -. With this type of protest, however, there is the risk of damaging very precious monuments and forcing the administrations to carry out very expensive interventions, as well as enormous waste of water. Associating an important cause with forms of protest that do not attract people’s sympathy risks doing damage to the environmental cause». And to think that the Municipality of Rome has filed a civil action against the Last Generation raids, next Monday “guest of honour” at Spin Time, for which no one is asking for its eviction. On the contrary.
