“There will be no return to Fornero, there will be no 104 quota.” The determined Matteo Salvini is reigniting the conflict within the majority on pensions, pursuing a decidedly different path from the one present in the draft maneuver approved by the Cabinet and expected in Parliament over the weekend. It is a text that is far from armored, especially in terms of some sensitive sections such as social security. The 2024 Budget Law, which is obviously still temporary, foresees the replacement of Quota No. 103 with Quota No. 104; This law will allow you to quit your job at the age of 63 instead of 62 and pay premiums for 41 years. Social Monkey and Option Woman. Any new developments that will raise the retirement age will be brought closer to the much-hated 67-year-old Fornero law.
Salvini: “There is no return to the Fornero law”
It is an aspect that Salvini does not want to acknowledge, as the deputy prime minister and infrastructure minister himself emphasized on the sidelines of a conference on differentiated autonomy in Naples: “I think helping 20 million workers, retirees and self-employed workers who will no longer pay deposits in November will be proud something to be heard.There will be no return to Fornero, there will be no quota of 104. The parliament’s goal is to reach the quota of 41, we have four years to go and therefore, in a complex national and international situation, we will have to rely on 20 million workers, pensioners and freelancers who will no longer pay advances in November “I think helping the professional worker is something to be proud of. Full trust in Giorgetti? Absolutely yes.”
“There are 14 billion euros and they go to 14 million workers,” Salvini added, which means a thousand euros per person for salaries of up to 35 thousand euros a year. It’s not simple right now, today I was in the Senate with my friend Giorgetti. We are working on a budget maneuver that tries to balance bread and fish without increasing it, Italy is growing but Germany is slowing down, then there is war in Ukraine, then there is the risk of war in the Middle East: every war is defeat and brings losses such as increased bills. The conflict is not only in the Middle East but also cultural and religious, the problem is not only in Gaza but also in Brussels, Milan and Naples. We are also involved in the budget law. Selected: workers and pensioners – added Salvini – there are 14 billion euros and they go to 14 million workers, a thousand euros each for salaries up to 35 thousand euros a year, they will receive another thousand euros in 2024. Some newspapers say that we do not help those who earn more, but support those who earn less He wrote that we prefer it. This is not a logic related to jealousy; “The more rich there are in Italy, the more successful they are, the better it will be for all Italians, without entrepreneurs there will be no business, there will be no wealth.”
Leo: “We will find a solution”
The fight on the social security front looks set to intensify and among the hypotheses on the table is expected to include Quota 103 along with a recalculation of contributions. The order from the League is always the same: stop Fornero’s law and no to Quota 104. A concept echoed by Northern League deputy secretary Andrea Crippa: “The aim is to defeat Fornero. A step must be taken and therefore already in this budget law the centre-right needs to show that pensions are being handled in the way they said during the election campaign.” The text will be changed, as Deputy Minister of Economy Maurizio Leo explained: “As President Meloni said there were things that needed to be clarified, there were things that needed to be improved, but I believe that we can do it today or tomorrow.” Foreclosure vs. There is no such problem. There are absolutely no such things. Minister Giorgetti is working on the issue of retirement, but a solution can be found there too.”
What will be the solution? The “blanket” falls short, and to satisfy Salvini, the rules currently in draft need to be literally changed, with the age limit being raised for the various “slides” that are alternatives to Fornero. A maneuver that, as Giorgia Meloni underlines, was approved “in record time” but now has to be substantially rewritten.
