"They wanted us
out of the game
but the result of the M5s is a
great success
that gives us back a great consensus to face this legislature without making discounts to anyone and to conduct our battles in an uncompromising way".
To make the summary, this afternoon at a press conference, is President
Giuseppe Conte
, claiming the
15.5%
of the preferences collected in yesterday's political elections, less than half of the result of 2018 but significantly higher than expected on the eve and to which sums "the victory in about
15 single-member constituencies
", underlines the former premier.
"We come from a troubled period with attacks by the media and political forces, with important
divisions
, nevertheless we have been rewarded by the citizens", he remarks.
For the legislature that is about to begin, the priority is one: "If the
citizenship income
is touched , the
opposition will be very hard and inflexible
. also the prospect of a provisional exercise ".
To Fratelli d'Italia Conte acknowledges having "obtained a clear victory", then wishing "best
wishes to Giorgia Meloni
for the role of responsibility that awaits her". However, a warning follows: "I invite the center-right, who obviously is a candidate to lead the country, to understand that when there is no real majority in the country, it is good
not to venture into constitutional reform projects
without real sharing with all forces, because the obvious risk is that of a sound rejection, like the one that Renzi took, to the referendum ".
To
Enrico Letta
, who today pointed him out as responsible for the victory of the center-right, the leader of the Movement says: "When there is a defeat, as in the case of the Democratic Party, it is good that a leader
does not look for scapegoats
to whom bear responsibility ".
The dialogue with the Democratic Party, meanwhile, is suspended pending the congress: “With the Draghi Letta agenda, he sold a political project that was not there.
As we said in the election campaign
there will be no dialogue
.
It is not a personal matter or a management team, but an agenda: we must understand that the Democratic Party will come out of the internal confrontation that will take place.
At the end of that we will see if there are the conditions to re-establish the dialogue ”.
However, there are only a few months left until the next regional elections, which will involve Lombardy and especially
Lazio
, where democrats and Cinquestelle still sit in the same council.
To a question about it, Conte replies: "We come from a Sicilian experience in which we realized that there were no conditions to be with the Democratic Party. Every situation must be evaluated, case by case, and in Lazio we will
evaluate a possible alliance
. But I want to warn the leadership of the Democratic Party: it will not be easy to dialogue with us, our bar has risen ".
