“We have five million people who voted for us.

I therefore exclude the dissolution of the Democratic Party ".

Enrico Letta, guest of 

Che tempo che fa

, on Rai 3, does not hesitate to reply.

Excluding the dissolution of the party, as excluded is the hypothesis of his return to France: "I read about many ironies from FdI and Lega, but" I will be engaged in Parliament with all possible determination. "By mid-month the

leadership of the Democratic Party should meet again

to get to the heart of the path that will lead to the primaries, and which, according to the secretary's intention, will lead "by the end of winter" to the

birth of the "new Democratic Party"

.

The management of Article 1 opens to a "true constituent of the democratic left" but warns: "The outcome cannot be written from the beginning. It is necessary to guarantee to members and non-members to be able to contribute".

Letta assures that "nothing is decided" and invites "all those who want to build the alternative" to the right to participate. 

The dem leader emphasizes the need for a

hard and united opposition

: "We must be ready to make the first

opposition to this government, both in Parliament and in the country

, in the streets when necessary".

He attacks the premier in pectore

Giorgia Meloni from the front: "Her first foreign policy gesture was to participate in the event of the Spanish right, with the post Francoists of Vox .... I would have expected something more pro-European and unitary".   

And to the other opposition forces he launches an appeal.

In his opinion, the Five Star Movement "has played an important role", has certainly "taken votes from the left" and remembers that the Democratic Party governs with them "in some regions such as Lazio, where the vote will return." an opposition that is as united as possible - he says - otherwise we will give the greatest gift to Meloni ", he underlines.

According to Letta "the opposition will regenerate the party and the center left", with a "

new generation that must take the lead

".

In the next few days the

agenda of the dem will be presented in Parliament

: a proposal that will range from the misalignment, even if only at the national level, of the price of gas from that of electricity, to the minimum wage, up to the ius scholae.

The climate in the Democratic Party, however, remains tense. 

Leadership

fibrillations

also affect dem women.

This is testified by an unsigned communiqué, released at the end of their conference yesterday, asking for a step back from "all the leaders of the party" including the spokesperson, Cecilia D'Elia.

"A fake", denounced Monica Cirinnà who, while admitting the criticisms that also emerged on the spokesperson's work, she pointed the finger at "curtains and ambushes" during the meeting.

Then the party's clarification: "The only official communiqué" was D'Elia's declaration.

But the waters remain very agitated.

"My candidacy is true, even if many try to silence it. I have powerful reasons to run for the secretariat of a party that is scalable.

Corriere della Sera

Paola De Micheli - many federations and clubs work with me on a

different idea of ​​the Democratic Party

, to put much more decision-making power in the hands of the members.

A

radical change

, which I will illustrate in the motion and in a book "You have clear ideas about your candidacy:" Should I ask for permission?

At least I said it and I do not apply only if I win.

I apply, then I win.

By dint of marching like a man they will end up scared and I will win ".

Letta declares himself "neutral" on the candidacies for the secretariat, despite having his "ideas".

Bonaccini and Schlein

?

"Great resources and riches for the future of the center-left - he replies to Fazio - as well as others. Many have made fun of the fact that there are too many candidates, I think it's good".

Then he makes it known that he will not return to France, as the right would like, but he will remain in the Chamber to oppose: "And

when there is a crisis we will be there to ask for early elections

".

Romano Prodi

also intervenes on the fate of the Democratic Party

: "I have spent my whole life to bring together the cultures of reformism. The

Democratic Party must be changed

, dynamized, projected,

but dissolving it would be like repudiating my life

, a kind of suicide. And I have not yet a suicidal will "he says in an interview with

Repubblica

, in which excerpts from the intervention of the former premier at the School of Politics founded by Enrico Letta are taken.

"The Democratic Party on the media seems to be the only anti-democratic party. But it's crazy, it's the only party".

And he adds: "It is necessary to

reconstruct the bond of common politics

that goes in depth and it cannot be done with a prevalence of Catholics or Communists,

reformist program

". Not only that:" We need an electoral law that does not tempt those who hold power.

Now they decide who should become a parliamentarian.

I'm for the

French double shift

, which can recompose Italy ".
