Pd, the areas compete at a distance. And the idea of ​​the assembly takes shape

The majority areas Pd a Montepulcianoi reformists a Prato. An activism that, as the history of the Democratic Partyoften anticipates a turning point at risk, a “moment of political clarification”, such as a management or assembly. A hypothesis that would have an identical objective to the definition and expansion of the majority dem: strengthen the secretary on which, in recent months, the ‘friendly fire’ of the reformists, but also of some noble fathers of the Democratic Party, has been concentrated, Romano Prodi in the first place.

Looking at parliamentary sources, it seems that the convening of theassembly can arrive by December. A date that is indicated is December 13th. In the Democratic Party, however, many are betting that it will not be a traumatic transition: the secretary sees the internal majority expand to Lettians and, in some way, also to Stefano Bonaccini who, shortly before saying goodbye to the reformist component, made it known that he did not feel like a minority in the party. Therefore, even in the case of counting in the direction, is the reasoning, the numbers would smile at Schlein and, indeed, they would strengthen its leadership.

Early congress hypothesis

For the same reason, the hypothesis of holding a early conferencealbeit with the idea of ​​’armoring’ Schlein’s path, appears remote: without a credible alternative candidate, who would feel like challenging the leader dem? The situation is different for women coalition primarieswhere they were to be celebrated. The names of possible competitors that are mentioned are mostly external to the Democratic Party, civic ones such as Ernesto Maria Ruffini o Silvia Salispotential aspirants to the leadership of centre-left in the event of open primaries before the political vote. The secretary said she was willing to join the party, with the note that on the coalition primaries for the choice of prime minister candidate all the political forces of the coalition must agree. Everything will depend on electoral lawa topic that returned to the top of the concerns of the party secretariats from the minute following the closing of the regional polls. FdI is the ‘main sponsor’ of reform of the current voting system which, according to the via della Scrofa party, would not give guarantees of governability. The opposition, with the Democratic Party at the forefront, are holding back, speaking of a strategy of the premiere Meloni to prevent the victory of the center-left and to mortgage Palazzo Chigi for another five years.

The initiative in Montepulciano

Meanwhile, the internal majority is structured and tries to expand: a Montepulciano the three souls who supported will reunite Schlein at the congress: Areadem by Dario Franceschini, Dems by Andrea Orlando, Article One by Roberto Speranza.

Details and program of the event

650 have already joined the initiative. Too many to be contained all in the Sala di Contrada Voltaia, initially identified as the location. “Building the Alternative“, this is the name chosen for the initiative, will therefore be held in Poggiofanti gardensthe public park of the Tuscan town, probably covered by a tensile structure, given that the weather forecast seems to discourage meetings ‘en plein air’. As far as the work is concerned, organizational sources say that it will start in the afternoon of November 28 with a first debate session, also expected to include the intervention of the mayor of Bologna Matteo Leporeto end with Gianrico Carofiglio and the lesson entitled “Words for civil resistance”.

The initiative of the reformists in Prato

While the three days will take place in the province of Siena, a Prato i reformists will hold a day of work with focus on manufacturing. A choice full of meaning given that the former mayor of Prato, Matteo Biffoniwas kept out of the Giani council in Tuscany and was not even chosen as group leader in the Council: “A retaliation by the majority against a reformist mayor“, comments an exponent of the Democratic Party minority. The initiative is called “Innovate to compete – the new challenges of manufacturing” and it’s the second date of the PD reformists after the one in Milan which sanctioned its definition as the “only opposition dem” after the farewell to Stefano Bonaccini. “Manufacturing, innovation, global markets in an era of tariffs. A proposal to and in the Democratic Party”, explains the Democratic senator Filippo Sensi I’m social.
