The choice of Pierfrancesco Majorino as the sole centre-left candidate in Lombardy provokes a backlash from Carlo Calenda. According to the leader of Ação, this movement moves the Democratic Party to positions far from those it should represent, thus risking losing yet another electoral battle after the clash of the latest policies.
“The Democratic Party – writes Calenda on Twitter – opted to run in Lombardy with Majorino, shifting the axis of the coalition towards Agnoletto (anti-capitalist front), the Italian left and perhaps the M5s. A man. Now avoid messing with Lazio by continuing to beg for 5 stars. Let’s try to win at least one», jokes the leader of Action.
Majorino himself speaks of the new balance of the coalition. The Cinquelle? “I am not one to demonize or persecute. Then we’ll see what they do. If the Cinquestelle want to talk, they know where to find us. We spoke with Dario Violi, I am in favor of running this race with the greatest clarity », said the MEP from the Democratic Party and center-left candidate in Lombardy, speaking on the websites of the Gedi group. “We are ready to govern the region, because we already govern hundreds of municipalities”, he added.
«Come on Pierfrancesco Majorino!». Instead, that’s the encouragement of Democratic Party Secretary Enrico Letta, who re-released last night’s tweet in which Majorino said he was “honored and thrilled” by the request to lead the coalition.
