Responding to a call out made by women within the movement a few days ago, today around 100 NO TAV women met up in Susa to “have a chat” with the local Mayor (a woman herself). The protesters bumped into the Mayor just outside the Council House and informed her they would “make a visit” to the meeting that had been planned in the morning. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5Why are they protesting against the new rail line between Turin and Lyon?
Opposition to the Lyons speed train is from what I can understand at a distance, is because it is not friendly to Italian community. The bosses perfer speed trains, and that workers and community to which they live prefer slow electric trains that are environmentaly friendly, and comfortable with all convieniences.
In fact with the ouster of the last Billionaire President, it shows that the workers unions need to take ownership and control over this community project, and make sure the peoples democracy prevails so the natural enviroment and the peoples are not in evironmental antagonism, but freaked-out speed trains geared to monopoly capitalist speed-up society isn't worker-friendly. Viva workers control!! You yet have a world to win!!

Hi there, here is a bit of background on the struggle:

Yes, now I undestand - they want slower trains. As a man who works a 70 hour week I prefer to get to work faster. Maybe the glass ceiling holding women back from earning the same as men is not so much a glass ceiling as a slow train.
You're obviously overworked and under strain.
get some rest and re-read your own comment. No need to apologise, we all fuck up.
