Renzi beats the center-right: ‘Reopen everything’. Zingaretti: ‘Ethically intolerable to have two feet. The enemy is the virus, not the rules’

The last time was in the middle of the first wave of COVID-19 at the end of last March: scientists preached the need for emergency shutdown to face the most difficult moment of the pandemic, Matteo renzi He asked “Reopen all” despite infections. Now waited 24 hours since the last launch dpcm: saw the protests and discontent, and followed the opposition. “While sacrifices are (still) required,” he wrote in his enews, “it would be very helpful for the government to explain to us on what scientific data and analysis decisions are made. And “not the emotions of a single minister.” For this, the leader of Alive italy, will ask ar Giuseppe Conte to modify the dpcm “in the restaurant area, places of culture and sports activity“In short, once again Renzi asks to” reopen everything “with a petition endorsed online by the party.

That of the leader of Italy alive is a direct attack on his own government and one more nod to a government shuffling the cards, making the Giallorossi dance. And it’s no coincidence that dem secretary was the first to answer Nicola Zingaretti: “I see many distinctions from government officials, from the majority forces with political initiatives that I consider incomprehensible, I think they are not the parties that sit at the government tables at night and organize the opposition in the morning have never been serious regarding the decisions made the night before. “And again:” It has always been wrong, but now being in two directions is ethically intolerable. People’s lives are at stake. Italy expects seriousness and authority from those with governmental responsibilities ”. And, he concluded: “The enemy is the virus, not the rules.”

Just yesterday, Conte signed the dpcm: a signature that came after tensions and clashes with the Regions, but also at the same table of ministers between those who asked to do more and those who insist that there is still little. All this in an increasingly tense social framework that requires reactions of institutional responsibility, especially from the majority front. Alive italy was silent in the more delicate phases, while now that the provision has entered into force it breaks out in political controversy that, most of the time, they see him as an ally of the opposition. So much so that, very often, it even beats the center-right in requests. “I vividly remember the days when the ministers, after the CDM, took to the streets to demonstrate against the government,” wrote the undersecretary dem Andrea Orlando. “Times much simpler than these and yet it did not go well then, for the government but even more so for the country.”

Renzi accuses the government: “It decided on the basis of the emotions of a minister” – The accusation of the senator against his own majority, but above all against the government where Minister Iv sits Teresa Bellanova, refers precisely to the Prime Minister’s decision to proceed with a partial closure. But not only: Renzi accuses Conte of not having taken the data into account, but only “The emotions”. Actually, yesterday the Prime Minister, illustrating the content of the dpcm, told the Italians that “contagion data cannot be ignored “ and “stress in the national health system.” But not only that: he specified that the very fact that the Rt index exceeds the critical threshold of 1.5 prompted the executive to intervene. For Renzi, however, everything is wrong: everything had to be kept open, despite the increase in infections and hospitalizations. Everything open from school: “Close schools again it’s a devastating woundHe wrote again in the enews. “We need quick swabs at school, not benches on wheels. We need private companies for transportation, not complicated rules on distance education ”. Then Renzi spoke about the health system: “We need more places in intensive care, more health personnel and a monitoring system worthy of the name, no generic recommendations to citizens. You need to make it work the test machine efficiently and safely, do not close theaters and restaurants that respect the rules, because this creates a domino effect in many sectors ”. A long series of disputes over the substance of things that would not have been done in recent months: but once again the person responsible would be the same government to which it belongs.

Even now Renzi models what he has doneSouth tyrol that, ignoring what was decided by the dpcm, has decided to assert its autonomy and keep bars and restaurants open beyond the allowed hours. “We will ask,” said the leader of Italia viva, “that President Conte consider following the same path taken by the president of Alto Adige, who signed an ordinance that states that restaurants are open until 10 pm. As far as restaurants are concerned, it must be remembered that data from Istat – which brings together hotels, restaurants and bars – tells us that the added value of this aggregate in 2019 is 64,000 million euros, almost equivalent to that of the entire sector of the construction ” .

So while the Minister of Culture Dario Franceschini He warns that “those who protest did not understand the seriousness of the virus”, Renzi insists that the main infections are in the means of transport and not in theaters or concert halls. “It’s okay to give up,” Renzi closed, “a lot of freedoms for the virus. But close places of culture and sports However, it is a mistake: it is easier to get infected in the subway than in the theater. And the closing of the restaurants at 6 in the afternoon is technically inexplicable, it seems a measure taken without any scientific basis. Does Covid hurt more at dinner than at lunch? And for those who have been equipped, do the same rules apply? Are we aware of the devastating economic damage? ”. To face the pandemic, “we need a plan, a vision, a strategy. Don’t chase events, but prepare them as we have been saying – often unheard of – for months ”.

Zingaretti to PD management: “We need an opportunity to relaunch the alliance. Summary face count “ – The secretary of the Pd, speaking in front of the management, has energetically defended the measures provided by the dpcm. As the Minister of Culture did before. “The measures have a reason. To stop Covid, we must once again limit the movement of people and the opportunities to meet without going back to a confinement, be close to those who will pay an economic and productive price these days that can save Italy, get it out of the nightmare ”, he He said. On the table, however, there is much more: that is, the government and that legislative pact to renew as Conte requested and promised a few days ago. “An opportunity is presented to state the reasons for this alliance, also answering the question of how to face the phase that we have before us is current ”, Zingaretti reiterated in front of his followers. “The legislative pact not only does not lose its relevance, but it gains importance. Cohesion and coherence are necessary. We need a qualitative leap in the ability to feel united in a historic mission ”.

According to Zingaretti, “we must find ways to take a step forward in our relationship with the opposition, greater collaborationWithout prejudice, without looking at the conveniences of the party, it is necessary for Italy to leap forward among the majority opposition forces. And for the leader dem we need “a qualitative leap”: “Everything is sustained if there is a clear jump in quality in rigor with which the government will approach this phase. It means authority, seriousness. Speed, do not get lost in the thousand bureaucratic currents of measures, and do not be afraid to put the effectiveness of actions first. Either the credibility of the State is recovered or disenchantment will prevail, turning into rage ”. Then he addressed the majority forces: “The next hours are determined, I make an invitation to the majority forces, Enough with this deluge of initiatives, of distinction, of oneself and but“.
