Second day at Palazzo Madama to welcome the senators elected in the 19th legislature
.
Mouths sewn by the center-right parliamentarians and the presence of the center-left still few.
At 12 there are about forty accreditations which, added to those who have already made the welcome yesterday, give a total of
about 105 senators,
just over half of the holders of the 200 seats of the Senate.
"
It is a great emotion and I will try to honor this institution.
I am very impressed when they call me senator, I think of Cicero, of Appio Claudio Cieco, it is something that I feel is my legacy".
Thus the leader of Action
Carlo Calenda
speaking with journalists in the Senate.
"The Senate of the Republic - he continues - is from 509 BC onwards, when the Tarquini were expelled, a point of reference for the Idea of the Republic and was so over the years up to 27 BC with Augustus, it is was the highest moment of human civilization ".
In Musumec
the former governor of the left elected in the ranks of FdI after arriving for the welcome leaves only a joke: "A beautiful, exhilarating and exciting experience. I will continue to serve my land, Sicily, as I thought I was doing until now" .
The blue Maurizio Gasparri
avoids the meeting with the press .
"I am here to try to carry out a function of representation of work within the institutions, as the electoral result has been outlined it will take place in the opposition".
Susanna Camusso
, new senator of the Democratic Party and former CGIL secretary, says this
after having completed the registration procedures at Palazzo Madama.
"There can be many projects, - she adds - she starting from the Charter of workers' rights for which we have collected 1 million signatures and which the Chamber and Senate never discussed".
Will you collaborate with Landini?
"But of course - he replies - I'm from another angle, but on the same side".
