Everything is worth it, absolutely everything, just to get some votes, in this Puglia in the balance. Even comrades. And what comrades. Here she is, Michele Emiliano on stage with Pippi Mellone, mayor of Nard Johar, a tough guy, who likes the Roman greeting. Just a few weeks ago, before filling the “Emiliano Mayor de Puglia” list with his followers, he made it clear which side he is on. Listen here: “We closed the Anpi de Lecce, it is a danger to democracy.” Paradoxes or refined strategy, who knows: fighting the right wing by enlisting the fascists.
Let’s go back to the photos of Emiliano’s irresistible electoral album, comrade and comrade, right and left, shameless, excessive, shameless, overwhelming. A few hours later he is in Taranto, in a theater with two hundred temporary ASL workers, called to sign a work contract. The realization of a dream, like the one promised to young Apulian couples, who will finally be able to get married, even in times of crisis, difficulties, tightening their belts because “Miché will take care of it”. Here it is, a few weeks ago, blown by the wind on a green lawn, announcing a bonus of 1500 euros for couples who decide to get married. First the feeling: “The happiness and joy that your love unleashes in your heart is also ours.” Then the strict logic of economic policy: “The measure is called the Wedding Travel Industry and its objective is to support the chain of the bridal sector.” Before the queues are made in front of the wedding dress stores, the combative Laricchia, candidate of the Five stars, after having reviewed the resolution pointed out that the sum allocated is 30 thousand euros, so it is only valid for fifteen couples lucky.
As we said, temporary workers in Taranto: less than a week before the vote, these workers, with flexible contracts, are hired by the Sanità Service company itself, without going through the competitions. Along with the governor, during the event, councilors, councilors, many of whom were re-nominated, carrying bags with sacred cards in one hand and the iPhone in the other to flood social networks with photos. Anyway, you know how the world is going, you don’t even have to say it: voting and getting votes, a permanent place in the family these days, is worth gold. And you don’t have to wait for the second shoe after the vote, either. The script is more or less repeated in Brindisi, again a couple of days ago. The set is that of the local headquarters of Asl. In the presence of the mayor and the general manager, the employees of the Sanita Service sign the contract. Here he is, the volcanic Michele: “We have freed many precarious workers from the nightmare that politics blackmails them every time they need to be hired. Throughout Puglia we are stabilizing thousands of people, a result that we set ourselves as a goal and that we have achieved ”. That’s right, a few days after the vote, all the “Health Services” in Puglia become regional employees, just in time to participate in the electoral events.
It is an old story, in this South eternally equal to itself, paroxysmal commonplace, Health, we are the same as always, it is the land where we can harvest votes. Professor Luigi Lopalco, a prestigious scientist called by Emiliano to coordinate the regional anti-Covid working group and later catapulted to the list, also fell in love with him. In Bari Lopalco presented the symbol and his candidacy together with Fabrizio D’Addario, who comes from the center right and is now the only administrator of the Bari Sanita Service, the company that provides services and personnel to the Local Health Authorities, which the board , in fact, internalized. In Taranto, the austere professor, with a Lenin-like goatee and lean appearance, found an effective organizer of the electoral meetings in the local ASL director general. And the same in Bari.
The world has lowered itself by this unscrupulous use of the party in the region. And also by some accident. An oncology patient from Bari published on her Facebook page an invitation letter to participate in a conference entitled “Pandemics and tumors”, within which she would also find Lopalco’s sacred electoral card: “Look why we invented obtaining qualifications from the cancer patients. I would be embarrassed. “More fuss. Meloni also announced a parliamentary question for the use of sensitive lists, as they are subject to privacy.
It’s a show. You put the adjectives. The opponents shout for the scandal, the left pretends not to see methods that, if Berlusconi or someone had done it, they would have screamed of shame, of change of vote and of fiscal damage. Be that as it may, it is up to the chronicler to document the scientific nature of the method: moral levity, use of the public for political purposes, ease of accounting. We are only in recent times: 250 thousand euros assigned to the Ecofeste de Apulia, 120 thousand euros assigned to the Aeroporti di Puglia company for “service of recognition and analysis of labor needs and personnel skills”. Then the chapter on recruitment and contests: on September 1, call for the recruitment of 65 temporary administrative collaborators in the ASL of Bari, on the 11th it was the turn of the Regional Agriculture Agency: a contest for 110 units of “administrative personnel “, one for 110 units of” executor worker “, one for 25 positions of category B3.
In Puglia there is a regional agency for every problem. And, in principle, in recent years the regional agencies have been the reward that the outgoing governor has given to the exponents of the center-right who changed sides. At the helm of the Arpal, a cart full of money that takes care of work, is Massimo Cassano, a life in Forza Italia, then undersecretary with Alfano, busily engaged in the electoral campaign. These days a “maxi contest” is being held for more than nine hundred places, with fairly generic selection criteria. Even Arif, the regional car for the defense of the land, is assumed easy easy, through a “course-contest”: 30-hour course, a presentation, et voilà. Basically, Emiliano is hiring Puglia.
In short, before it’s too long even with consultancies, appointments, and board appointments. The situation is this: 14 lists with Fascists, Communists, Christian Democrats, whatever. Airports, waterworks, employment agencies, health services, which function as electoral committees that distribute seats. While waiting to know if, as some predict, a magistrate will recognize something illegal, the political experiment is remarkable: defending the left with methods that deny it. Not bad.
