In the middle of the month, the leadership of the Democratic Party should meet again to get to the heart of the path that will lead to the primary.
And which, in the intentions of the secretary Enrico Letta, will lead "by the end of winter" to the birth of the "new Democratic Party".
The management of Article 1 opens to a "true constituent of the democratic left" but warns: "The outcome cannot be written from the beginning. It is necessary to guarantee to members and non-members to be able to contribute".
Letta assures that "nothing is decided" and invites "all those who want to build the alternative" to the right to participate.
The discussion will also involve the name of the party, but dissolution is excluded: "We have 5 million Italians who voted for us and asked us to oppose",
says the leader dem.
According to which "the opposition will regenerate the party and the center left", with a "new generation that must take the lead"
The tensions accumulated after the polls animate a long-distance confrontation-clash between the various souls of the democrats.
Who now, however, are called to opposition, without wasting time.
In the next few days the agenda of the dem will be presented in Parliament: a proposal that will range from the misalignment, even if only at the national level, of the price of gas from that of electricity, to the minimum wage, up to the ius scholae.
"We must be ready to make the first opposition to this government, both in Parliament and in the country, in the streets when necessary", urges Letta.
Who is already starting to attack the premier in pectore Giorgia Meloni head-on: "His first foreign policy gesture was to participate today in the event of the Spanish right, with the post Francoists of Vox ....
Leadership fibrillations also affect dem women.
This is testified by an unsigned communiqué, released at the end of their conference yesterday, asking for a step back from "all the leaders of the party" including the spokesperson, Cecilia D'Elia.
"A fake", denounced Senator Monica Cirinnà, who, while admitting the criticisms that also emerged on the spokesperson's work, pointed the finger at "curtains and ambushes" during the meeting.
In the end, the party had to intervene to specify that "the only official statement" was D'Elia's statement.
Letta, interviewed by Fabio Fazio at "Che tempo che fa", declares himself "neutral" on the candidacies for the secretariat, despite having his "ideas".
Bonacchini and Schlein?
"Great resources and riches for the future of the center-left, as well as others. Many have made fun of the fact that there are too many candidates, I think it's good".
Then he let it be known that he will not return to France, as the right would like, but will remain in the Chamber to oppose: "And when there is a crisis we will be there to ask for early elections" The waters are also troubled inside Article 1. The Sicilian secretary has wrote a letter to the leaders asking for their resignations, attaching a very harsh criticism of the electoral strategy.
In the end, the management approved by a large majority the report by the secretary Roberto Speranza.
The request is "to rapidly build joint action by the opposition" with "the social question at the center".
On the war in Ukraine,
the party has clear ideas: "We will participate and promote initiatives for peace in all places: diplomacy needs to regain strength, with the aim of stopping Putin's aggression".
The common field, in short, between stakes, distinctions and some mistrust, is still to be built.
And the 'pitfalls' of direct competitors, the Five Stars, are not lacking: on 22 October Giuseppe Conte will speak at an assembly organized to strengthen "the progressive director of the Movement".
Among the promoters of the initiative, which aims at the birth of a "regenerated and credible progressive pole", there are well-known faces of the Italian left and ecologists: from Loredana De Petris to Stefano Fassina, from Paolo Cento to Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio.
