Quei “bambini della pace” che incendiano le notti di Belfast e che si sono rimessi a fare la guerra in Irlanda del Nord.

Il mio reportage da Belfast tra i "ceasefire babies", i ragazzi nati dopo la pace del 1998.

Spoiler: c’è poco da stare tranquilli.

1. Forse molti l'hanno dimenticato

Ma Belfast ha ancora gli ultimi muri di Europa

Vergogna e dramma di queste enclave misere e maledette

Questo è il “muro della pace” che divide il quartiere unionista Shankill dal cattolico Falls (foto mie)

Ora cancelli chiusi anche di giorno ImageImageImageImage
2. Lui si chiama Joel Keys @JoelKeysNI, ha 19 anni, è un unionista e brexiter di Belfast e ci spiega perché suoi coetanei e amici sono scesi in strada a combattere in Irlanda del Nord

“C’entra la Brexit, ma non solo. C’è un piano dei paramilitari dietro”

3. Dietro, attraverso e oltre il tremendo “Muro della Pace” a Lanark Way che a Belfast divide protestanti e cattolici.

8. Lei è Kerrie 'Hope' Patterson, la prima “ceasefire baby”

Ossia la prima bambina nata dopo gli Accordi di pace del 1998 in Irlanda del Nord.

Per questo l’hanno chiamata “Hope”.

“La pace da noi è anche lei ancora una bambina. Ma ho speranza”, mi dice.

#Italy has a big problem.

The decision to put teachers, academics etc on the front line of the vaccination campaign with all those who came along (lawyers, white collars and all sorts of “furbetti”) has a huge cost in terms of #Covid deaths.

Ps. Just a personal example.

My mother and my aunt (under 60) got their first #Covid jab before my 4 grandparents (age range 91-80), also due to a less centralised - and disruptive - vaccination roll-out.

#Italy #Coronavirus 🇮🇹
And actually (forgot to say) just 2 out of 4 grandparents have been vaccinated yet... while all their children have instead.

Outrageous.

In the following thread - like I used to do in a previous life - I'll try to explain what's going on politically in #Italy (not an easy task, tbh) & what are the possible outcomes after President Mattarella asked former ECB president Mario Draghi to form a new, crucial government
1. First of all: as you know former PM Conte left because he lost his majority.

Why?

In a nutshell: former PM Matteo Renzi decided he had to go officially because "Conte lacked a long term strategy", so he and his party (whose 18 MPs were crucial) left the governing coalition"
2. According to Renzi, Conte's executive was governing "day by day" and they were not planning anything in the long term, such as how to spend the EU money from the so-called "Recovery Fund", something that must be submitted to EU authorities quite urgently.
