We did not really deal with Phase 3 and the management of the economic crisis, especially if the insult is added to the damage, as happened during an intervention by the Deputy Minister of Economy Grillina Laura Castelli, which at Tg2 he had declared: “If a person decides not to go to the restaurant anymore, the entrepreneur must be helped to do another business”.
In practice, if there are no more customers, it will be necessary to help the restaurateurs to change jobs. An exit that has sparked a sea of controversy among them restaurateurs, who sent an open letter to the pentastellata. “For us, the comment of the deputy minister on the service aired by TG2 is rejected. We are no longer willing to apologize, understand or justify”, the 500 signatories sink. “We have become intolerant to these television slips that put a whole sector into the media pillory. They have given us lazy, revolutionaries, fined and now also incapable. All these appellations do not belong to our category which represents an important Italian economic column (13 % of GDP) “.
A whole category that proudly reiterates that it never asked for anything else sustainability for the reopenings, which took place with extreme difficulty, between the reduction in the number of customers, not only due to the fear of contagion or the economic crisis but above all for the new and rigid rules of distancing, and the higher costs (for the purchase of dpi and for sanitizing rooms). “Many activities have reopened with the awareness of starting again in an emergency situation, where the takings do not cover the costs”, the restaurateurs still add. “With the courage and the spirit of sacrifice that always distinguishes our category, they have chosen to want to continue giving a damper raised in the city, to want to be close to our collaborators, to make up for a state that has left hundreds of thousands in uncertainty of workers in the sector “.
Nevertheless numerous activities have reopened their doors, even with the risk of going in lost, especially in the early recovery stages. “We only ended up with a package of promises on promises that have not yet been fulfilled. To all this must be added the inability of political communication. We would never have expected a statement by Deputy Minister Castelli totally out of focus”, you can still read in the open letter, where the attack also extends to the bizarre maneuvers devised by the Conte government to restart the country’s economy, at least in the dreams of the Giallorossi.“Ever since the era of enterprise 4.0 began, you have promoted digitization, robotics, e-commerce, technology apps, ecology, monopattini, delivery and much more, but none of this represents the essence of the fundamental principles of catering made of hospitality, welcome and relationship “, the restaurateurs still attack, among whom the executive’s suspicion of a specific project creeps. “Do you want to see us all eating in front of the PC in smartworkig? So you are free to ingabbiarci at home and in offices and leaving cities at the mercy of degradation and clandestine activities “.
As the category points out, politics is not a show, so“Dear Minister Castelli, we don’t need help to change the way we do our business. The problem cannot be solved by inviting non-convertible companies to convert to something else. Don’t try to analyze the market that changes in supply and demand, we know how to do it well. we too”.
Hard also the intervention of Matteo Salvini: “Since yesterday I have met restaurateurs, bartenders and hoteliers who tell me ‘the Castelli deputy minister is a fool’. They are right. They are not the ones who have to change jobs, unlike too many members of the current mal-government”, concluded the leader of the Carroccio.
