If the green pass cannot exist on public transport, it remains just a joke
"The introduction of the green pass on long-distance trains, airplanes and ships has worked very well but it cannot be imposed on local public transport simply because from an organizational point of view it would not be manageable". Words of the Minister for Infrastructure Enrico Giovannini , to Agora ', explaining that "we have discussed it with the regions and we have decided not to introduce it also because it would be difficult to carry out checks". Anyone who takes a suburban city bus, a local train or a subway would have told them for a long time!
Therefore "we have agreed that in the first phase the controllers will operate on the ground, to avoid, for example, picking up people when the bus is full". A request – he specifies – that “it came from the municipalities, because the transport companies are in difficulty '”. Here too the "Seigneur De La Palisse" spent a moment in the ministry and wrote him the TV intervention: Already the checks on unpaid tickets are very scarce, let's imagine them seeing them at every bus stop counting who enters and who gets off. Anyone with a minimum of realism will have laughed
The minister, however, claimed the allocation of "over 600 million to enhance public transport" that is practically nothing, together with the strengthening of the "rules for filling", all crap, if no one checks. However, it imposed the creation of “Mobility managers”, yet another useless function in the absence of adequate buses, trams and railway carriages. There are hundreds of photos with people pressed on buses, subways or local trains.
This is the logic of the bureaucratic government: a swab or vaccination is required if you get on a nice Freccia Rossa or an airplane, where you are comfortable, fairly spaced or in any case potentially distancing, in modern and well-ventilated cars and fuselages, where, in any case , the majority of Italians do not travel every day. On the other hand, practically nothing is done, and serious controls are not exercised, for those transports in which one travels daily, in a crowded way, on vehicles that are sometimes obsolete and without ventilation. however the bureaucrat is happy: his good practice has been carried out, he has pretended to do something and his heart is satisfied. All this, however, shows the total hypocrisy of the Green Pass affair
