It’s a real last-minute clash between the centre-right candidate for mayor and the Basile-De Luca duo. After Scurria’s latest attack, who during the presentation of the lists invited the outgoing mayor to distance himself from the leader of the South movement, he calls North. “More than just a stance: Scurria’s is a good excuse to avoid confrontation”. Thus Federico Basile responds to the declarations of the centre-right candidate. “After having seen his initiatives on the subsidiaries rejected, when he claimed that the appointments of the sole directors were illegitimate, and after having also been denied by the Commissioner of the Municipality of Messina with respect to his pressing requests for revocation of the same appointments, after having spent days riding the story of the signatures, revealed for what it was: a clumsy attempt to discredit us today tries to change the subject. But the people of Messina are not distracted. Scurria thinks of avoiding the political confrontation by moving the attention on artfully constructed controversies once again. As for the handshake, frankly we are at a paradox. Since the beginning of this electoral campaign, Scurria has missed no opportunity to attack me, denigrate me, cast doubt on the legitimacy of our action. He has continued to call me a puppet, talk about the system, and use the term Basiluca to discredit us If he doesn’t want to do it, I’ll come to terms with it. One thing is certain: I will no longer allow him to construct false narratives and mystify reality. If he thinks he has found the perfect alibi to escape the confrontation, just now that all his attempts have failed, know that the citizens will be able to understand this time too.
