"I am in a position to commit myself to the collective good and I cannot and do not want to back down": Thus Letizia Moratti, candidate for the regional elections in Lombardy, during the presentation of the 'Lombardia Migliore' list at the Palazzo delle Stelline in Milan.
"I know that politics is a tiring commitment but I believe that in life one cannot always make easy and comfortable choices. I had been offered many - he concluded - but I believe that choices must be made that intimately, in one's heart, are they feel right".
Moratti_ 'We are concrete and beyond party labels'
- "We have to go back to speaking the language we know best, that of concreteness going beyond the labels of the parties".
Thus Letizia Moratti, candidate for the regional elections in Lombardy, during the presentation of the 'Lombardia Migliore' list at the Palazzo delle Stelline in Milan.
"I see a spent potential - you added - I want to give Lombardy the opportunity to return to being the locomotive of Italy and Europe".
The program will pay attention to the environment, to the "quality of life, air and water - he explained - and there is no quality of life without safety, without an effective transport plan, without a development model that foster jobs and growth".
Two provinces of Lombardy "
are below the national GDP average and this - he underlined - is not admissible for our Region". And in any case "when I hear President Attilio Fontana speak of 'smart land' at the end of his mandate - he concluded - things, since we are at year zero in this.
We need to connect territories, businesses, the third sector.
And human connections that go beyond infrastructure".
