they should charge illegal invaders not those tourists

Anyone who is already spending the money to visit Italy and wants a day trip to Venice is not going to blink an eye at an extra 5 euros. This is just pointless.

This is just the start. After implementation, the fee will go way up. Don't do it.

It doesn't apply to tourists staying overnight? What? OK so basically 90% of the tourists won't be paying.
