March 21, 2021 "Bewilderment and discontent in the ranks of the dem parliamentary groups after the interview-lunge of the secretary Letta".

This is what some sources of the Democratic Party disclose, disputing how Letta "chose to speak at the home of the two group leaders, in fact choosing the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Gazzetta di Reggio. An indubitable lack of style".

In the interviews, Letta had called for the appointment of two women to head the parliamentary groups.



The former premier is essentially contested by this passage: "When I arrived I said that there is a huge problem of female presence in our party: three ministers are men, I am a man. I think that inevitably two group leader must be two women. We cannot take a group photo of the party and present only male faces. In Europe these are things that can only be done by Viktor Orban in Hungary or Mateusz Morawiecki in Poland ".



Sources that relaunch the ironic tweet of Senator Salvatore Margiotta: "I miss the name of the woman chosen as group leader instead of Benifei", in reference to the recent appointment of the group leader to the European Parliament.

In some chats, messages underline that for the positions of Letta himself and of Minister Orlando, "gender equality was obviously not a priority. In particular, the Minister of Labor brought with him two other men, Provenzano and Misiani, one as deputy secretary and the second in the secretariat ".



The sources that refer to this area that disputes the secretary's announcements, and which evidently suggests that a clash is taking place between the various souls of the party, underline how Letta knows that "our autonomy is guaranteed and the elections of the two new presidents will take place by secret ballot. In any case, on Tuesday the groups will be divided in a very delicate phase of the legislature. A rift that Letta could have avoided if he had used more caution and common sense ".
