Share

March 20, 2021 Work of the Assembly of Italia viva.

Matteo Renzi takes up Enrico Letta's challenge on reformism and relaunches: from words we must move on to confrontation on facts.

Justice and rights in the first place.

On the

observes: he was Conte's "hostage", but whoever said "Either Count or death" and wanted to asphalt Iv "went home".

Renzi recognizes Enrico Letta's "turning point", but asks him to take a stand: one cannot go to elections in the company of "sovereignists and populists".

The analysis on

it is clear: they are torn apart, attached to the armchairs so much that "one is as good as one" has turned into "one is as good as another", but to those who think that this "causes me sadness", replies: "wrong person".

Renzi points the finger at Beppe Grillo responsible with his attitudes of the "culture of hatred" in politics.

And those who are reformists cannot embrace this shore.

The advent of

's government

"is not a defeat of politics, it is a triumph of politics, a masterpiece of politics", underlines Renzi in his speech.

"In the space of two months, Italy has returned to being a great world power".

And again: "Nobody believed in it, they thought we were crazy", he observes.

Then he adds: "Today Italia viva is no longer decisive for the holding of the government but for IV the goal is not to carve out a niche of power", the party is an "instrument" for "the salvation of the country".

Once the

phase of the "stay calm" which brings back seven years has been archived, Renzi acknowledges the change of pace of the Dems with the new secretary, but warns: there is "the novelty of the Democratic Party led by

which objectively represents a turning point compared to the time of

", but for the spring of the Reformism it is necessary to pass" from words to deeds ".

"We are ready for confrontation on all points", but if the reformist culture accepts to stand in the challenge with those who accept to stay in the culture of hatred there is a contradiction in terms ", he adds.

" Which side do we stand on the prescription ?

On the side of law or on the side of

?

There is a guaranteed majority in Parliament.

Is the Democratic Party with us or with the Five Stars? "Asks the leader of IV. Then he claims the law on the Jobs act which" has created more than a million jobs. "

And on the upcoming political elections he quotes The former secretary of the DC, Martinazzoli: "Let us abandon the mystical rhetoric of alliances." "We do not need to discuss electoral law today.

We acknowledge the sudden changes in other political forces.

We have already passed from the proportional to the

, but I have the impression that in the end nothing will be done.

We are ready to go with any law ".

From the Democratic Party arrives, by return of post, the reply:" The culture of guarantees is not improvised by rooting for this or that, but is measured on the tiring work so that it is shared and common heritage: our task is to find solutions.

The Democratic Party, consistently, has always been committed to the guarantees of all without distinction of wealth or positions.

It is no coincidence that today we start again also looking at the many measures on justice introduced with Minister Orlando in the past legislature.

We are those of the reform of pre-trial detention and wiretapping, interventions on the timing of the trial, alternative measures to detention and free legal aid to protect the right of defense, just to name a few interventions.

I would suggest to Renzi to file the slogans at no cost and work above all for the solutions ", observes Anna Rossomando, Head of Justice of the Dems.

Also from M5s there is an answer:" If Senator Matteo Renzi continues his anti Conte show newspaper, speaking of tranquility now that Prime Minister Draghi is here, did not understand what the real problem of the country is.

If you want to talk about spells then do one thing: stage a beautiful instant disappearance from the Italian political scene.

Otherwise it will be the citizens who will torpedo him at the next electoral round: it is politicians like him, alchemists specializing in parliamentary turmoil from the first Republic, who destroy the future of Italy ", says Gabriele Lanzi, secretary and delegate of the Chamber for the pentastellato group Senate.
