have less than a month, but the organizational machinery is in motion for weeks. The Purple People still want to be at NoBday2 largest and fiercest of 5 December, the day when thousands of citizens for the first time violet color on the streets of Rome to protest against Berlusconi.
This time, however, they say, is not only a demonstration against the Knights. "We want a law on conflict of interest, a new electoral law and elections," she says in this interview Silvia Bartolini (WATCH THE VIDEO). Have joined the initiative, among other things, the Organizers and Liberacittadinanza Red Salvatore Borsellino.
A call to participate "in the creation of an unforgettable day of civil passion", which goes beyond the NoBday itself, "without excluding anyone and no one should be excluded," is directed by Andrea Camilleri, Don Andrea Gallo, Paolo Flores D 'Arcais and Margherita Hack in the pages of MicroMega. The four intellectuals are not part of the organization of the event, but invite "all groups in purple, and the many others that are mobilizing to come together as soon as possible to organize the whole event on 2 October." This appeal joined the unit in more than 25 000.
In 38 cities, meanwhile, thousands of others are organizing buses to take part in the procession will move from Piazza della Repubblica to Piazza San Giovanni, and a special ship will sail from Sardinia. Good news from abroad, where groups of volunteers are trying to organize NoBday in Madrid and Stockholm.
Berlusconi will test the majority asking for the trust on five points from federalism to justice. What are the five on which you lacking confidence?
First tramples the Constitution placing itself above the law, defending themselves from the processes and not processes. Second, is not able to manage the effects of a crisis (which he has hidden) and that is plunging the country, its manufacturing base, businesses and families, workers, precarious as those of the school but not only. Third: He has a vision of the owner of institutions that use for its purposes or its private satisfactions. Embodies a massive conflict of interest that in no other country would tolerate liberal. For the serious burdens shadows on his past but also its present relation to dealings with Mafia or convicted for crimes of mafia which has also resulted in some of the government or in parliament. And let me emphasize that last final is not, has no respect for women and this alone would be enough to send home a Prime Minister.
Less than a month now, the appointment, you are also collecting funds, at what point are the donations and subscriptions?
We have just started a fundraiser on Facebook that is going well, but now raise with more force. References to support us can be found on our blog www.noberlusconiday2.wordpress.com; membership of many associations, from a red diary Liberacittadinanza, but also of many citizens. There are already 38 cities in which you are organizing buses to get to Rome, plus a special vessel from Sardinia.
How do you think, this October 2, who will go up on stage and what it is called?
It will be like on December 5, with a difference: not only ask for the resignation of the Berlusconi government, but also a law on conflict of interest, a new electoral law and elections free and fair. From the stage speak ordinary citizens, precarious, the earthquake and flood victims Aquila Messina. We want to give the word to them. The themes will be those included on our appeal as well as issues affecting the lives and future of our country.
What are the steps you'd like to be adopted soon by the Parliament?
As I said before: the law on conflict of interest and a new electoral law. But even strong responses are urgently required to deal with the crisis that is destroying our Country, plunging into the basin of poverty hundreds of thousands of families, answers are needed and in defense against the precariousness of the public school.
