30 November 2019The entrepreneur Pippo Callipo has decided to take the field ahead of the regional elections in Calabria on 26 January. "Members of civil society, trade unions and employers' organizations - he said in a note - ask me for a direct commitment. I have chosen to accept the challenge. I launch a strong appeal to parties and civic movements: let us unite and carry out this battle of legality, transparency and renewal, let's do it with courage without paying attention to position revenues and tactics. I am there .. I Rest in Calabria ".

"In these weeks - continues the entrepreneur, who has accepted to take sides with the center-left - I have reflected a lot on the opportunity of my direct political commitment and I have come to the conclusion that I cannot do this battle, I cannot not listen to the voice of a new generation that wants to be the protagonist of a peaceful but decisive revolution that can no longer be postponed: more and more young Calabresi are asking not to leave the land where they were born and raised due to lack of job opportunities and future prospects. so to listen to my heart, my deep desire to help my land because I have always dreamed of seeing her change, evolve and give opportunities to everyone, I also feel a moral duty towards the many young people I meet every day and who ask me to become guarantor of their expectations ". "I have therefore chosen - Callipo affirms - to accept the challenge even if I am aware that the problems and priorities to be addressed are not lacking and are very complex. I am thinking, for example, of health care and the need to exit the administration, the longed-for socio-economic development for decades, infrastructure to attract investment and thus create jobs ".

The M5s has decided to focus in Calabria on an autonomous candidate, after a long negotiation with the Pd. The choice of grillini fell to university professor Francesco Aiello.
