At a recent demonstration against
Berluskoni in Rome, the assembled crowd in the
ancient amphitheatre were brought to their feet
by the sight of the Mayor of Gallicano, Ardelio
Pellegrinotti, who entered the arena with his red,
white and green official sash of office across
his chest and a defiant clenched fist in the air.
Communism was not dead. It was not
just a historical oddity relegated to the dustbin
of post fall of the Berlin Wall, post modernist,
end of an era thinking.
This afternoon the same Ardelio, who as Mayor
has officiated over many couples looking for a
civic wedding away from the church state, finds
him self on the “other side”
Laura Risalti and Ardelio Pellegrinotti will be
married this afternoon at 18.00 in the Comune of
Gallicano and the reception held at the traditionally
summer playground of the Italian Communists, the
Festa de L’Unità
All the staff at barganews send their respects and good wishes to Laura Risalti
and Ardelio Pellegrinotti
