Anger begins to explode. Little by little, in small gestures. A clear sign of over a year of restrictions due to the Covid pandemic that have affected us, much more than we think.
On Sunday evening, in Aversa, a pizza chef's anger exploded, deciding to block the car traffic on the central Via Roma when she saw the police enter her own premises, a rotisserie, to protest the gathering of customers outside the premises. “Let us work, we just want to work” the woman shouted, protesting the action of the carabinieri. Many passers-by stopped to witness the scene. Some took photos and videos, but, above all, some sided with her, applauding her.

“Let her work, it’s her right,” a man shouted. And applause for the woman’s protest, clearly struggling with this whole pandemic and the consequences it has caused. Both financially and physically and mentally. In the end, after several minutes, the carabinieri decided to walk away to avoid making the situation even more tense. But the anger, it’s clear, is starting to come out.
Naples: 21 people evacuated from Secondigliano after a pizzeria fire.
Naples – A massive fire ravaged a pizzeria in the Secondigliano neighborhood last night, forcing 21 residents to evacuate. Two adjacent apartments were declared uninhabitable by the Fire Department due to structural damage. The Municipality is responding to the situation. Chiara Marciani, Councilor for Welfare for the City of Naples, announced the initial assistance measures in a statement. "We are present in the area to ensure the families who were forced to abandon their homes due to this tragic event are not left alone," she stated. "Our priority is to ensure they have a safe shelter." Thanks to the work of social services and volunteers, the "Sandro Pertini" Youth Center (formerly the Combatants' Center) has been set up as a first reception center. The facility is currently housing 21 displaced persons, including elderly people and children, providing hot meals and overnight accommodations. Critical situation: smoke and constant monitoring. Palazzo San Giacomo emphasizes that the area remains under close observation. "The air quality is still heavily saturated with smoke, making it difficult to breathe," they warn. The Municipality remains in contact with technicians and…
The Con Te Napoli Committee goes to the Regional Administrative Court (TAR) to rule on a travel ban: "The measure is unconstitutional."
The controversy continues after the Ministry of the Interior's decision to ban away matches for Lazio and Napoli fans until the end of the season. The "Con Te Napoli" (Naples Supporters' Committee), represented by President Luigi Iaquinta and lawyer Angelo Pisani, has raised the stakes, calling the measure an "indiscriminate and punitive measure." According to the Committee, the crackdown does not target those actually responsible for the clashes, but rather thousands of fans, families, and workers, deprived of the right to follow their team. "Security disguised as repression." Lawyer Angelo Pisani has been harsh in his criticism of the competent authorities, calling it "institutional violence disguised as security." The Committee's argument is that the ban demonstrates the inability of law enforcement agencies to isolate the violent offenders, preferring instead to resort to mass restrictions. "Security is being transformed into a punitive system that tramples on civil rights," Pisani stated, emphasizing how such policies paradoxically benefit the economic interests of pay television, driving spectators away from the stands. Appeals and compensation requests are underway. From the words...
The Registry Office in Naples is closed, sparking protests: "Essential services denied to citizens."
Naples is once again facing disruptions to public services. The historic Registry Office in Piazza Dante was closed from January 19th to 26th, preventing residents from accessing essential services. The closure, cited by the Municipality as staff shortages, is just the latest evidence of administrative management that, according to the Civic Committee "Innamorati di Partenope," appears severely inadequate. "The staff shortage doesn't just affect the Registry Office," emphasize Carmine Attanasio and Sergio Livio, representatives of the Committee, "but extends to every sector: unswept streets, unrepaired potholes, clogged drains, cobblestone gaps that have never been repaired, and a bare-bones gardening service." Their complaint highlights the urgent need for a competitive exam to hire at least thirty agronomists and six officials for the Gardening Department, essential for the proper management of urban greenery and the safety of trees. The Committee also highlights that, despite the new plantings in the city, thousands of empty ditches or dead trees remain, demonstrating a lack of planning and oversight. "It is essential that the Mayor intervene immediately,"…
