Resign yes, resign no. Few and unsuspected are those who ask Mayor Chiara Appendino to step aside after the sentence. Everyone else is cautious: “You shouldn’t fire him because of the trial, but because of how he administered it,” they say. In the penalty line there are those who do not wait. Like Forza Italia: the regional coordinator Paolo Zangrillo and the city commissioner Marco Fontana hope “that the 5-Star Movement asks for his resignation, in line with the grillina logic”, since otherwise “the Jacobinism of the M5s would stop when end up in the meat grinder. ” one of its representatives. “Then they press:” The game of self-suspension to avoid having to comply with the rules represents the unworthy end of the mandate of a mayor who had to pulverize the Turin system and who instead only collected guarantees ” A tough start. The same goes for the League. Provincial Commissioner Alessandro Benvenuto hopes “that M5S is consistent” and asks Appendino to take a step back “or to be suspicious tomorrow morning (today, ed)”. In short , in the entire center-right there are only two opposing voices. One is that of Fratelli d’Italia. Deputy Augusta Montaruli reiterates the line of the past: “We are guaranteed and it is also valid for you. It is amazing, however, that you , who speculated with the word honesty when building your own political career, do not apply this rule to yourself. ”The second, on the other hand, is that of Osvaldo Napoli, parliamentarian of Forza Italia, who has been in conflict with his party for a long time, who returns to be in the front of the opposition Blue internal decision: “If the mayor resigns, a prefectural commissioner would arrive.” in charge of carrying out only the ordinary administration in a moment of economic and social emergency, ”Naples thundered.

And if the center-right does not have a united voice about it, the center-left has the clearest ideas, but says them in a lower voice. The metropolitan secretary of the Democratic Party Mimmo Carretta remembers a familiar scene: “We will not find ourselves in front of the Civic Palace shouting ‘honesty'”. The political point, he argues, is another: “Nothing changes about the negative opinion against the Appendino administration.” A more focused comment on the sentence comes from the leader of the dem group in the city council Stefano Lo Russo, who says he is “saddened by the negative image of Turin”. Then, also in the case of Lo Russo, the evaluation goes back to the last four years. Silvio Magliano, regional and municipal councilor for the Moderados, is carried out even more, which, he explains, “is not our style to comment on the sentences: they speak for themselves.” He, too, then turns his attention to the work of the board led by Appendino, “to be rejected without appeal.” Instead, the realpolitik note comes from Italia Viva. Davide Ricca, the city’s coordinator, puts it bluntly: “Our culture is radically different from that of the Cinquestelle,” which is why the mayor “should not resign. Who knows – Ricca wonders – if now they will understand that governing is complicated».
