Chef Colonna: “The green pass? The first to ask for it are my customers”

“The green pass? My customers are the first to ask for it, who feel more guaranteed knowing that we respect the law and ask our customers “. Antonello Colonna had already said he was in favor of the green certificate. But now the novelty, which the chef of the Colonna Resort in Labico and the Open Colonna in Milan tells Adnkronos, is precisely the change of perspective, according to which “respect for the rules is demanded above all by customers. And that’s right and I’m happy – he comments – I finally see collaboration and unity to fight the pandemic ”. “My clients want to be welcomed with the green pass just as they ask me if the room is sanitized and for my part I give them the extra security they are looking for. But … there is a but – continues Colonna, seizing the opportunity to highlight what, according to him, remains the real problem of the green certificate – It is the lack of controls, perhaps impossible in an Italy made up of many small businesses : distant and dispersed centers where it is difficult to enforce the law. They can fine the unfortunate person on duty, but monitoring activities throughout the country is unimaginable “. “I think of the discotheque they closed in Rimini – exemplifies Colonna – But will it really serve as a teaching? And how many Rimini or how many Sardegne are there in Italy? Still, I often travel by train and in Rome and in the station there are turnstiles, as well as in a few other cities. And all the others? How do they control everyone. I want to see if the next time I get into my compartment they will ask me, together with the ticket, also for the green pass ”. Without rules or controls, there is the ‘popular caciara’, the ‘do-it-yourself of the laws” “There are already rumors that Sardinia and Sicily will return to yellow – concludes the chef – I’m afraid we will go on like this, with rules that must be respected but then it should be verified that they are in all respects. When there are no clear rules or when there are no checks, it happens that we make laws at the bar and the State is happy because you have taken away a job to do: it is the ‘popular caciara’ in which everyone makes the law on their own up to buy the green pass “.
