Hundreds of people were in the street, almost all very young, to protest against the high price of gasoline, low wages, and the services denied to citizens. Before departure, some protesters gathered in a circle, sang the Song of Italy and slogans against "Salvini and Meloni" and "Fascist scum returned to the sewers." Further back from the gathering, which was located alongside the northern arcades, there were also parents with children from middle and elementary schools. Some Palestinian flags, among many from Italy. At the forefront was a banner reading "more money for families less for wars" and "united win."
