"Too often I read about arguments between the Democratic Party and the M5s, it takes two to argue. I have never launched an instrumental controversy towards another opposition force. If anyone thinks of attacking or insulting the Democratic Party instead of the government, they are going the wrong way."
The secretary of the Democratic Party, Elly Schlein, said this while speaking to journalists in the Chamber.
"I believe that people realize that those who work to build an urgent alternative to the right, giving the idea that there cannot be an alternative is a favor to Meloni. We are not willing to accept constant mystifications and attacks that aim to wrong target,” he added.
Then Schlein continued to respond to the words spoken by Conte yesterday, when the M5s leader defined the Democratic Party as "war-mongering".
"I will continue to work every day to highlight the issues on which we can work together with the other oppositions - continued Schlein - healthcare, housing, climate, schools. We don't engage in politics by looking in the rearview mirror, because it doesn't help the country take a step forward Of course we have our differences, but the situation requires us to be willing to work on common battles, in the face of a government that is dividing the country. This responsibility is very strong, we will continue to work in the united way possible. As I answer for my choices to my constituents, others respond to their constituents".
"The League, instead of fighting to avoid seeing the dignity of an Italian citizen trampled upon, starts rummaging through her past, even before the sentence is pronounced it has already decided guilt, and puts more chains on the wrists and ankles of Ilaria Salis, calling for accusations on which she has already been acquitted. In this nostalgia for the Middle Ages where the presumption of innocence disappears Salvini "makes statements of unbearable paternalism, but if he claims that someone accused of injuries cannot be a teacher, one has to ask him how he can, whoever is accused of kidnapping, being a minister".
"Salvini is putting more chains on Ilaria Salis' ankles and wrists. He is doing so by relaunching an accusation from which she has already been acquitted. He is doing so with a strong nostalgia for the Middle Ages which makes the presumption of innocence disappear. And he is doing so with innocence hypocrisy and paternalism of a minister who says that someone accused of assault cannot be a teacher. I ask him if someone accused of kidnapping can be a minister."
"The Democratic Party has relaunched its commitment to a national law on the end of life. There had been work done in the last legislature, we are continuing it, it was work that managed to bring together the various sensitivities".
PD secretary Elly Schlein said this.
Then speaking of the case of the Venetian councilor: "We have full respect, freedom of conscience was not questioned, but criticism was expressed, that dissent could have been expressed differently.
Nobody spoke of sanctions or disciplinary measures".
