They leave the council chamber after a crowded popular assembly and an intense question and answer session with the regional councilor for agriculture. Farmers, traders, truck drivers and artisans gather in front of the Municipality of Serramanna, a town that welcomes Gabriella Murgia with 90 percent of the shutters lowered in protest against the high prices.
Efisio Lai, a 52-year-old farmer, greets the representative of the Giunta Solinas and immediately breaks the delay: «There is not only the question of the cost of diesel fuel, there are many problems that we have been dragging on for years. We ask you for urgent interventions, but not only. The Region must raise its voice with the Government ».
"I am here to listen to you and to talk about what we have done to meet the demands of the productive categories", replies Murgia in the square invaded by the tractors that have guarded the Town Hall for a week. “Ours is a peaceful protest. We cannot live in uncertainty eternally. We do not want to hear promises, but only answers ”, underlines Davide Lilliu, a merchant of 31 years after having led the procession that crossed the streets of the town.
