Former Alitalia flight attendants protest in front of the Capitol staying in miniskirts

THE Alitalia done Ita Airways and the protests do not say to stop.

They left their shoes there and the women moved to one side of the square.

The choral cry followed: “We are the Alitalia“, Which they repeated for several minutes. “Naked, without work and dignity” was the message they wanted to get across.

Passers-by began to applaud as the flight attendants hugged in a long hug, closing those who had burst into redemptive tears between them.
