«We have closed an agreement with Fratelli d’Italia, on Tuesday we will present all the details at a press conference in the Chamber. This is not a comparison but we will be present at the 2027 elections with our list, our symbol and our identity. Leader Cateno De Luca underlines this to Ansa, adding “I can tell you in any case that in Sicily we will have free hands and therefore we will remain in opposition to the Schifani government”.
«We have really registered the desire on the part of Meloni to allow a territorial project, such as we are, and above all administrators and therefore mayors, to build a project to elect its own representatives in Parliament», adds De Luca.
The signature question
Only those who are represented in Parliament by at least three deputies obtain the “discount” on the signatures to be collected (1,500 per constituency instead of 6 thousand) to participate in the next political elections. South calls North has only one parliamentarian, Francesco Gallo, but thanks to the closed agreement two will arrive “on loan”.
Two Melonians should arrive to the aid of the South calls North component within the Mixed Group: Manlio Messina, who continues to be very close to the prime minister despite no longer being in the Brothers of Italy and shares the “anti-Schifani” position with De Luca; and Lillo Pisano, from Agrigento, who had been suspended from the party due to legal matters, only to be reinstated at the beginning of the year.
