May 23, 2020 In Verona the return of the nightlife in Piazza Erbe, with the images that have made the rounds of hundreds of young people huddled outside the bars on social networks, triggered the furious reaction of the mayor Federico Sboarina. "I am incaz .. black for all the videos shot last night in Piazza Erbe, and the many messages I have received so far," he told reporters today."Then - he added - the drop that made the vase overflow were the photos of the ecological operators of the services this morning at dawn, you see the most beautiful square in our city left as a real latrine, with the street littered with glass broken, plastic and waste. Absolute crap, not even a landfill is treated like this. It is unacceptable. "
So from today until Tuesday 2 June, to consume alcohol in the Scaliger city it will be mandatory to be seated at the tables: Sboarina has signed the ordinance.
Hundreds of people parked on the "Toloneo", the central part of Piazza Erbe, without respecting the safety distances, in some cases without wearing masks and creating gatherings until late at night, even embracing each other. And there have been open protests against law enforcement officers who intervened en masse.
Throughout the evening, the operators sent reports to the police, Carabinieri and local police stations, as well as numerous reports from the residents, for the
uproar until late at night.
"In front of the police, some people present in the square have had aggressive attitudes - observed Sboarina -. Veronity is not only like or beautiful images of the city posted and posted on social media. Veronity means respect for Verona, for its squares , for the rules of civil life and respect for our whole community. We all remember the gatherings of March 7-8, when we still didn't know what we were dealing with, but we realized 15 days later with the infections that they exploded, with full hospitalizations and intensive therapies, but now we know what it means to not respect the rules, we know that there have been hundreds of deaths and that entire families have lost their jobs: I wonder what is the meaning of all this. Where is the respect for sick people, doctors and nurses who have worked tirelessly to save everyone else, and the many who have lost their jobs? This is madness, "he concluded.
