“The centre-right in Basilicata, despite showing all its internal contradictions on the issue of autonomy, had the courage to bring the opposition’s motions to the Council and reject them assuming their responsibilities before the citizens”. This is what the councillors of the Pd group of Palazzo Campanella claim. “The debate in Basilicata was without discounts: The opposition motions did not pass and the motion in support of autonomy presented by the centre-right had the same fate. The citizens of Basilicata, thus, had the opportunity to know the real positions in the field and know who supports the reform that will put their fundamental rights at risk and who, instead, opposes the secession of the rich wanted by the League. A dutiful act of transparency – the Democratic councillors continue – that in Calabria cannot be carried out due to the pirouettes of governor Occhiuto, president Mancuso and the entire centre-right majority that continues to play hide and seek and does not want to expose itself by assuming a clear and defined position”.
“The time for this hypocritical game is over – the Democratic councilors conclude – the center-right should bring our ppa on the referendum to the Chamber and decide whether to vote for or against so that the Calabrians know which side the governor or his people are really on, as the center-right did in Basilicata. In any case, the battle against autonomy will not stop and will have enormous popular consensus as already demonstrated by the impressive numbers obtained from the collection of signatures online and in the squares”.
