Referendum, trains and gazebos for the Yes vote. The centre-right is closing ranks

The train of Forza Italiathe gazebos of Lega. And the controversy with the leader M5s Giuseppe Conte on a metaphor of the former prime minister on referendum as a “kick in the face from citizens” to the government. The centre-right is moving towards the final phase of electoral campaign for the vote of March 22nd and 23rd next, between mobilization for the Yes and a question and answer with Conte.

In Rome, in view of the referendum ‘sprint’, they are there Antonio Tajani e Matteo Salvini. The first participates in a press conference at Tiburtina Station for the arrival of the trains of the Forza Italia initiative ‘An Arrow for Yes’, then speaks at the meeting of the party’s young people, again on the theme of Yes to the referendum. The second goes to one of the 1500 gazebos organized by the League throughout Italy.

“Who votes Yes vote for one faster justicefreer and independent from parties, currents and politics. There is a minority caste of judges who decides who gets promoted, who gets rejected, no one pays for their mistakes, there are thousands of Italians unjustly investigated, even arrested and put in prison and then released with a ruined life and no one pays”, he says Salviniwhich talks about the vote in favor of justice reform as of “a choice of freedom“, to “remove the currents, the excessive power of politics and parties that pollute the courts”.

Salvini’s statements on the vote

Per Salvini “Whoever throws her into a fight is wrong.” “I see many people who silently, laboriously will go to vote Yeseven on the left, even among the judges, even among the magistrates, among the prosecutors, among the lawyers”, he adds. At the Tiburtina station, in fact, it is the turn of To Tajani. The ‘blue’ leader intervenes at the party’s press conference, on the occasion of the arrival of the ‘Frecce’ – with FI militants and Yes supporters on board – from Florence and Naples. “The referendum it serves to begin to change ours Villageit is not a referendum on the government. There will be a vote on the government next year and the citizens will decide whether we have worked well.” Then the ‘jab’: “The mafiait disgusts mendranghetait disgusts me camorrait disgusts me Holy crown unitedand vote Yes“.

Tajani and justice reform

And, again, referring to the Prosecutor’s recent sentences Nicola Gratterireported by ‘Il Foglio’: “We don’t want to settle accounts with anyone, neither with those who win nor with those who lose. This is not a right-wing reformneither center nor left. There reform it doesn’t go against the judiciaryit does not serve to make the government count in the judiciary. We don’t want to put prosecutors under the government, it’s a colossal lie.” In short – as he reiterates To Tajani speaking to the young people of FI at the Salone delle Colonne in Eur – “it is one reform that gives back sacredness of the togabedraggled by the currents”.

Sanctions on Russia: Salvini and Tajani divided

While, on sanctions on Russiaopinions differ. “Trump he loosened the sanctions, in my opinion he did a good job”, he explains Salvini. “Absolutely yes,” he replies instead To Tajani to those who ask him whether Europe should maintain the sanctions on Moscow.

The controversy with Giuseppe Conte

And the centre-right react to a sentence of Contewho said in the morning: “This is their only reform. If they get a kick in the face from the citizens, it’s clear that everything will collapse. But politically, then, maybe they’ll remain stuck there.” The undersecretary to the Presidency of the Council responds from the government, Alfredo Mantovano. “The president Giuseppe Conte confuses him referendum of 22 and 23 March with them Political elections expected in 2027″, underlines Mantovano, while from Lega, Forza Italia e Brothers of Italy There are several voices that stigmatize the president’s exit M5s.

Conte’s solidarity with Meloni and Nordio

Conte that, after the news of the burned images of Giorgia Meloni e Carlo Nordio during a procession in Rome, he expresses solidarity to the Prime Minister and the Keeper of the Seals. “The M5s is against any form of violence and with gestures that recall it. For this reason I condemn without hesitation and firmly what happened a short while ago in the square in Rome, where the images of the Prime Minister were burned Giorgia Meloni and the minister Carlo Nordio“, says the former Prime Minister. Who, on March 18, will be in Piazza del Popolo for an event of No together with the secretary of Pd Elly Schlein and to the leaders of Avs Angelo Bonelli e Nicola Fratoianni.
