Naples, Laura Lieto, is the “No Comment” association that, on a weekly basis, sends its activists around the city in order to identify and report emergencies of various kinds (supportive, cultural and sanitary).

“We have been reporting the problem since March – explains Antonio Alfano – on May 30 we also sent a pec to Minister Franceschini. Never a reply, neither from him nor from the Municipality. Obviously the problem is not the homeless who are only looking for a place to live and that open the umbrella only to shelter from the scorching summer sun, but the state of abandonment they are in due to the lack of alternatives “.
