Problems with garbage collection and disposal have been getting worse since ages. People have been bitten by rats too, all before Virginia Raggi became mayor.<br /><br />Meanwhile, the streets are cleaner.<br />La Stampa reports on May 14: http://www.lastampa.it/2017/05/14/economia/roma-raggi-prigioniera-dei-rifiuti-cos-i-grillini-bocciano-gli-impianti-RbchObX0BT4yhfBL5kvGBP/pagina.html<br /><br />"As expected, the streets of Rome are cleaner. Comune and Ama, the Campidoglio company that manages the service, have deployed 1,800 vehicles and 4,000 busy staff 24 hours a day, spending for overtime a number that sources connected with the works estimate at 2 million euros.
