The agenda, the agenda speaks. Sassoli, Gualtieri, Orlando, Bonaccini, Cuperlo, Zingaretti on the 17th. The day before the right will take the stage in Florence for the “national” closing of this electoral campaign: Salvini, Meloni, in the heart of a region where, until a short time , they were unwanted guests. Now debatable.
Here, Tuscany is the Italian Ohio, as Emilia was in January, a new stress test for everyone, for the government, for the Democratic Party, even for those who deny it: “But it is evident – says outgoing Governor Enrico Rossi – That the elections here have repercussions in the political framework. But, how do you say that whatever happens, nothing happens? Apart from that it is a message that does not motivate, then it is lunar, it is as if the SPD lost Rhineland Westphalia, an earthquake. ”By the way, the Sardines also arrive in extremis, a kind of red rescue, next Saturday in Cascina, the red trench conquered by Ceccardi, the center-right candidate in the region, at the time he was presenting himself in the passionate version: spray. chilli in hand, shouting the immigrant hunt, t-shirts of those that Salvini likes so much: “First they did the damage – said the” boys “from Sardina – with a candidate who does not shoot, now they call us to save what can be saved. ” Because this is the problem: Eugenio Giani, outgoing president of the regional council, a long-standing phlegmatic politician, a bit secular, a bit socialist, he just doesn’t throw it away, then he sets off on the path of renzism. Renzi himself, who loved him with everything, has now advised him not to overexpose himself on television, because in reality he is not a seducer of listeners: “Matteo -the malicious whisperers- is already preparing to unload his failure about the candidate, the problem is that if he fails too much we run the risk of losing ”.
A week ago, to straighten out a complicated campaign, anxious like all disputable matches where you won easily, Nicola Zingaretti urgently sent two national coaches to Florence, Nicola Oddati, the coordinator of the political initiative and Marco Furfaro, the communication manager. for a “crisis cabinet” in view of the final race. Around the table at the PD headquarters in Via Forlanini, also the candidate, the regional secretary of the Democratic Party Simona Bonafè, Luca Lotti and Enrico Rossi, who at the time the candidacies were being discussed was far ahead of the right. But he had Renzi’s fatwa. And with him Lotti, Marcucci, a piece of the local world linked to Orlando, imposed on Giani: “This is wrong – the sense of the match – we must straighten the shot if we do not lose.”
Because the novelty is that the right has treasured the Emilian lesson, careful not to scare, because the intercoms, the persecutions and the sovereign omnipotence awaken a millenary heart that still beats in those places. Democrat and anti-fascist. Ceccardi in a suit, ironed shirts, hair in order like the good girls of the past, a calm tone of voice has changed his look, tone, posture, language, proposals, in the sense that he almost does not say anything, but he says it well. But above all he does not support what he wanted a long time ago, at the time when photos at the firing range with revolver in hand, of the suburbs with aerosols, rallies against mosques, against social housing for immigrants, against “red” priests. and, after all, also a little against the Pope and also against John Lennon. Yes, because just before summer the mayor prevented the elementary school children from singing ImagineBecause it expresses questionable values: too globalist, globalist, in short, not exactly the hymn of the God of the Fatherland, the family. Now the image and images have changed, as has the appearance. Here he is holding the hand of a child on a green lawn, which Mulino Bianco does so much, or attending, with respect, the Feast of the Liberation of Sant’Anna di Stazzena, an iconic place of that anti-fascism that historically, in the propaganda of the Northern League, it’s an annoying old iron.
Let’s go back to the meeting in Via Forlanini: “It is clear that he has no idea and plays everything just for the fact of being a novelty, he only says’ how nice to be here ‘,’ I will be the president of all ‘, we will use the recovery’. she … But inertia is not enough for us ”. This is the analysis, also because the thesis is that she is the pawn, but the actors are quite different: “It is clear – says Bonafè – that there is a piece of the world that is betting on failure here in Tuscany with They aim to blow up the government, just read the Confindustria newspapers. ”Here, the government, the Democratic Party, where an unprecedented discussion would open. And, inevitably, the secretary would enter into doubt. Gualtieri, Thursday night, after a tour in Arezzo and a series of public meetings with the productive categories, at a dinner at the Unity party in Fiesole he reassured his colleagues: “In my opinion we won, but even if we lose I don’t see any alternatives, because there is no other majority. And what do we do, eliminate Conte who is the most popular of all? The only alternative is the vote, but I see it difficult for the Chambers to dissolve in the middle of the budget session and in the middle of the debate on the recovery ”.
The truth is, no one can make predictions. And not just because the world has changed, even in Tuscany. Where in the last years six out of ten provincial capitals have passed through the right (Arezzo, Pisa, Siena, Grosseto, Pistoria, Massa). But because the climate is indecipherable: “It is a strange campaign, Covid, the masks, the measure of the fever, and then people are with their heads elsewhere, at work, in the crisis.” Strange for everyone, because the Beast ones are good at taking photos, but in Prato there were about 300 people, although on Facebook they seem like a thousand. Giani was recommended to talk about concrete proposals, in tune with the tradition of good governance: free childcare, microcredit for small and medium-sized companies, digitization of home care, as a result of what Rossi has already started. And then: mobilize, mobilize, mobilize. It is true that Salvini has changed the register, compared to the first meeting in Empoli, that of “let’s send them home”. He understood that “politicization” turns against him, as happened with Borgonzoni: “It is not a national test, we vote for Tuscany,” he says now, with the aim of collecting the same result (the shoulder) with different tones. . But it is always he, the great enemy, an expression of the genetic denial of the history of those parts: “Look – Rossi warned – that antifascism is still a value here, it is mobile, even if there is fatigue in our world.”
And what a fatigue. A chill ran down my spine at the images of the candidates of the Brothers of Italy campaigning in the houses of the People of Cascina. We said, mobilize. Bonafè has mounted, from today until Sunday, an “extraordinary mobilization”, with five hundred gazebos throughout the region, with special attention to Florence, which together with Pistoia and Prato is the trench within the trench, surrounded by the first, They are evenly distributed between the Lega and the Brothers of Italy, who rule almost everywhere. And now they attract the sympathy of industrialists in the north. While the regional Confindustria, in Florence, signed a development pact together with the unions promoted by Rossi. And he hopes not to witness surprises: “We won, maybe a little, but we won,” they tell the Democratic Party. A battle cry, an auspice, an exorcism of a defeat that would make every word inadequate.
