There were demonstrations today at Nice Opera against the conductor Beatrice Venezi, whose father  Gabriele Venezi is a former leader of the neofascist party Forza Nuova.

Beatrice herself is an advisor to the rightwing Italian Minister of Culture, Gennaro Sangiuliano, and a friend of the prime minister Giorgia Meloni.

She has only just started work in Nice. Not looking good.
