Divorce between the Rousseau Association and M5s
. "'Associazione Rousseau changes direction. The choice is painful, but inevitable. In these 15 months - writes the association on the Blog of the Stars - we have constantly solicited the resolution of critical issues. For eight long months we have requested several times to share a common project with well-defined responsibilities and perimeters of mutual roles and we have concretely proposed a partnership agreement to strengthen and clarify the link between Rousseau and the Movement ". But being together must be a mutual choice "and" this, unfortunately, did not happen ".
"Direct democracy, participation, the involvement of members in decisions - writes M5s on Facebook - do not depend on the single tool used but on the will of the M5S to rely on direct democracy, making use of digital tools as a priority. This will remains unchanged, our heart pulsating is direct democracy, whatever the instrument used ". "The choices of the Rousseau association highlight the latter's willingness to play an active and direct part in political activity. This will is incompatible with a" neutral "management of instruments", he adds.
"The 5 Star Movement, as part of the new political project currently being defined, has therefore initiated all the necessary procedures to equip itself
with the digital tools necessary to ensure the participation of members
of the 5 Star Movement in decision-making processes."
