After the surprise summit with Luigi Di Maio, Nicola Zingaretti is preparing to close the ranks of his party in view of the elections in Emilia Romagna and Calabria and the verification of government with Giuseppe Conte and the allies at the end of the month or early February. Appointment therefore in a former convent of the Rieti on January 13 and 14 in the abbey of San Marco Pastore in Contigliano, in the Reatino, with the secretary, ministers, undersecretaries and parliamentarians, will serve to take stock of the dem proposals for the 2020 agenda of the 'executive. For a relaunch between environment, infrastructure, school and justice. The 'withdrawal' Pd, officially a seminar, was requested by Zingaretti for a discussion behind closed doors entitled 'Today for a tomorrow - First people, a new government agenda'. Somehow the event takes the place of the 'conclave' that Giuseppe Conte wanted to do with the ministers, but then he seems to have given up on organizing. The party that appears closest to the premier looks with apprehension at the difficulties of the M5S that could thin the majority, especially in the Senate. But the regional ones, especially in the bastion of Emilia, will also be important for the dem and the leadership of the secretary.
If Stefano Bonaccini is confirmed governor, it will be possible to work with more serenity, even if Calabria should fall into the hands of the center-right led by the League. And in Reggio the conflict with the Cinquestelle of the civic candidate supported by the Democratic Party, Pippo Callipo, complicates things in view of an already difficult vote for the experience of the dem Mario Oliverio, overwhelmed by the investigations. In case of victory in the Emilia-Romagna trench, the Democratic Party will relaunch government action with a program aimed at the environment, school and infrastructure. Always hoping to have defused the mine of the prescription first.
"Today I met Pope Francis - tweeted Zingaretti -. A beautiful conversation on the things that the 1920s just started need: peace, social justice, equity, sustainable development. We will do everything to be consistent".
Almost a viaticum for the subsequent meeting in Palazzo Chigi with Di Maio. "Thanks to the citizens, I have been an administrator for 12 years and a few months ago party secretary - the leader of the Democratic Party recently said presenting the Rieti seminary -: I see and live every day the distance that often exists between people's expectations and politics".
In the background and in the approach to the regional elections, the theme of the relationship with the Sardines will also arise for the Democratic Party, which on the 19th will return to the square in style in Bologna. On the Fb pages of the movement, appeals against abstention are multiplying, but without indications of vote, apart from the aversion for Matteo Salvini and the center-right. The hope is that fresh water feeds the Bonaccini mill and then the center-left also in other regions and nationally.
