'The EU experience is over' Protesters take the streets of Rome as leaders gather
[Sunday Express] Federalists, nationalists, populists, unionists and anarchists were all catered for in the Italian capital which is also playing host to official events marking the 60th anniversary of the EU's founding treaty.While 27 EU leaders - Theresa May was conspicuous by her absence - staged a solemn celebration on the ancient Capitoline Hill, thousands of ordinary people took to the streets, some waving the blue and gold flag of the crisis-plagued EU, others brandishing angry placards. More than 30,000 demonstrators took part in the various gatherings with 5,000 police and security forces on standby in case of violence. Posted by: Besoeker 2017-03-26 |
