'It aims to protect all the most vulnerable people, expanding the sphere with respect to the Zan text'. 'Fedez? They will run him in the elections. Ready to meet Zan '. Question and answer with the deputy Dem (ANSA)


Question and answer between the Northern League senator Andrea Ostellari and Alessandro Zan

, speaker in the House of the homonymous bill on homonymous transphobia. "Fedez? - says Ostellari to The Morning Show broadcast on Radio Cafè - I would not be surprised to see him as a candidate in the next elections. I am unable to say if the 5 Ferragni Movement arrived after the 5 Star Movement, I do not exclude this and I wish him the best of luck. " On relations with the parliamentary member of the Democratic Party, Alessandro Zan, the Northern League exponent added: "Zan and I are from Padua and we do not have our backs to each other. We have not recently had the opportunity to meet, but this does not exclude that it can be done. On the contrary, I tend to do so. my hand and I would like the debate to be open, to make a law useful for everyone, not just for one part, "Ostellari said, who added:"Indeed, if you make your studio available, we do it live on the radio ".

"Ostellari want to meet me? I gladly have a coffee with him, but the problem is not me. Because I am a deputy, and I have already played my role as speaker in the House. Ostellari should meet the senators of his commission and understand the prevailing sentiment of the justice commission that wants to approve the text of the law against homotransphobia ": thus

the deputy Pd Alessandro Zan, first signatory of the Zan bill, guest at" The Breakfast Club "on Radio Capital.

"The Northern League Ostellari has been opposing the bill on hate crimes for some time - explains Zan - but he as chairman of the justice commission should be super partes. He did the opposite, continuing to keep the law in a drawer, declaring that it was not a priority, he arbitrarily decides what is right and what is wrong. He should take into account the sensitivity mainly of the commission that wants to discuss this law ". As for the monologue of the comedians Pio and Amedeo who justify the use of words judged to be homophobic and racist: "I don't want the censorship of satire, but these jokes recall the comedy of the 70s where terms were used that revealed homophobia and even misogyny.Jokes that wink at stereotypes steeped in the culture of discrimination against particular social groups ".

"A League text is ready that aims to protect all the most vulnerable people, expanding the sphere with respect to the Zan text

. An aggravating circumstance is envisaged that increases the penalties for all crimes committed against the weakest people", taking into account consideration "from disability to sexual orientation. It gives an important technical contribution in the parts where the Zan bill is criticized not only by the League but also by the left and feminist associations".

So to ANSA the president of the Senate Justice Commission Andrea Ostellari (Lega) asked about the process of the Zan bill.

 With reference to the legislative process and its timing, for Ostellari "the important thing is to give space to discussion, hearings and proposals for amendments to help form a better text" and, ultimately, "to provide a more effective protection tool. There are already four other texts under discussion together with the Zan bill, this will be the fifth - continues the senator in reference to the text of the League -. Do you want to do something for improvement or not? ". Ostellari hopes that "an improvement can be achieved", after which, for a possible synthesis, "a basic text or a unified text can be chosen".
