Anarachists from the so-called
'social centre' anticapitalist squats on Sunday dismantled one
of Venice's two new anti-crowding turnstiles.
"Venice is not a reserve, we aren't on the way to extinction"
said the antiglobalists after tearing down the turnstile put up
to stem the flow of arrivals during the long Labour Day weekend.
The turnstile was put back up after Mayor Luigi Brugnaro
inspected the site, saying "we won't fall for provocations and
will continue to work to solve the city's problems".
Meanwhile Capri Mayor Gianni De Martino said the Bay of
Naples island may bring in similar measures as its hotels and
other accommodations filled to breaking point for the long
weekend.
