The announcement arrives in the Chamber by the vice-president Maria Edera Spadoni and marks a political novelty of some importance in the field of the center-right.
Twenty-four members of the new group: the major 'bleeding' is the one that hit Forza Italia (Maria Teresa Baldini, Raffaele Baratto, Michaela Biancofiore, Felice Maurizio D'Ettore, Matteo Dall'Osso, Marco Marin, Stefano Mugnai, Guido Germano Pettarin, Elisabetta Ripani, Cosimo Sibilia, Simona Vietina), then the "Cambiamo! - Protagonist People" component of Mixed, close to the governor of Liguria Giovanni Toti (Fabiola Bologna, Guido Della Frera, Manuela Gagliardi, Osvaldo Napoli , Claudio Pedrazzini, Gianluca Rospi, Daniela Ruffino, Giorgio Silli); Fabio Berardini, Carlo Ugo De Girolamo, Marco Rizzone come from the Democratic Center; Tiziana Piccolo from the Lega and Martina Parisse from the 5 Star Movement.
The president of the group is Marin, the deputy vice president Mugnai. "Thanks to Berlusconi, he was brave, but now we have to move on, it's another time" were the words in the press conference of Luigi Brugnaro, mayor of Venice and one of the founders of Coraggio Italia, who wished "all the best for Forza Italia and the other center-right parties ", making clear the goal of" recovering the voters who have already gone away ". The color that will distinguish the new political subject will be fuchsia, "which is a deep pink, beautiful hard. I have always thought that women have an edge".
"This is the government of the best and it deserves to move forward. We are here to help Draghi who is the most authoritative person," said Marin. "Courage Italy from a parliamentary group will certainly become a party. We have given ourselves 60 days for the various commissions to develop the issues": this is how Toti, interviewed by Affaritaliani.it, explains the new political formation. The timing of the congress? "We will see when the commissions are finished, I hope even before two months. Let's change! If the constituent goes well as we all hope, it will flow into Coraggio Italia. I remember that Cambiamo! It has more than 400 administrators including mayors, regional and municipal councilors" .
As for the relationship with Forza Italia, from which many parliamentarians of Coraggio Italia come and which blew today's summit of the center-right on the candidacies for the Municipalities precisely in controversy with the new political entity, Toti explains: "As far as I am concerned, the reports are good, ours is not an operation against Forza Italia but to strengthen the moderate area of the center-right. To win in the next elections I hope that everyone understands that it is not good to play at least we are and we are less. of democracy ".
"We wish good luck to the Forza Italia colleagues who have decided to participate in the construction of the parliamentary groups of Coraggio Italia. It is clear that we are sorry to see the interruption of a common path undertaken many years ago, thanks to the foresight of President Silvio Berlusconi, who led us to lead the country in difficult times and, even now, has pushed us to contribute with conviction to the birth of the Draghi government. We hope that on their part there will never be a lack of loyalty to Forza Italia which, as a moderate and liberal movement, has in recent years knew how to listen to everyone, giving voice to categories that have been abandoned for too long and that, above all, became the promoter and backbone of the center-right coalition in which the majority of Italians recognize themselves ":this is what the Forza Italia Toscana parliamentarians Massimo Mallegni, Deborah Bergamini, Erika Mazzetti, Barbara Masini and Roberto Berardi say in a note.
"Best wishes to the newborn group of Coraggio Italia in the Chamber of Deputies. From different positions we will work to strengthen the center-right alliance", says the group leader of the Brothers of Italy in the Chamber, Francesco Lollobrigida.
