10 May 2021 After Nicola Zingaretti renounces to take the field for the seat of mayor of the capital, the entire architecture of the alliance between Pd and M5s is complicated in view of the next municipal elections. There will be no pact for Turin or Milan, while the dem and pentastellati will race together in the first round in Bologna and Varese. And somehow also in Naples. Even if the road to the Emilian and Campania capitals is still all uphill, as well as that for the capital. In Bologna, the 5 Stars will only support the official candidate of the Democratic Party Matteo Lepore and not Renziana Isabella Conti, determined to run in the primaries. And in Naples not even Roberto Fico's appearance on the field will be enough to pave the way between the two parties. Since thereit is also the base of the local 5 Stars that gets in the way and repudiates any alliance of the Movement with the parties and that there is the dem wing close to De Luca who "cheers" for the former minister Gaetano Manfredi.

"We work with the M5s but it is clear that in Turin and Rome, the work is complex because the Democratic Party in recent years was in opposition and has criticized the work of the Mayors Raggi and

Appendino ", explains the secretary dem Enrico Letta. With the general staff of the party he strongly launches the candidacy of Roberto Gualtieri:" He is a very authoritative candidate, he built Recovery, he is Roman. Now let's go to the ballot and I am sure that then we will convince the M5s to converge because the opponent is the right "reassures Francesco Boccia, while Zingaretti blesses. Boccia is convinced" that we will go together in the first round in Bologna and Varese. And on Naples, the president of the Chamber Roberto Fico is the third position of the state and a Neapolitan passionate about his city. He is giving his contribution and I am sure that in Naples we will go together. ”In the Campania capital, however, Vincenzo De Luca has turned against him: he supports Manfredi who would also like the future M5s leader Giuseppe Conte.And also the base of the M5s has signed a document signed by 2 municipal councilors and 90% of the municipal councilors that says No to alliances: "We believe that for the city of Naples there are no conditions to proceed in this direction, while we are open to a confrontation on issues and programs with real civic lists and not set up solely for electoral purposes ".
