Veneto regionals, long-distance war between Salvini and Zaia: letters to vote for the League’s list and threat of disciplinary measures

The division between Matteo salvini me Luca zaia at this point it becomes evident, even if it seems to be being born under the surface of the electoral machinery of the Northern League launched in Veneto towards victory. HE diktat Salvini begins to remove some cracks in the Northern League Base, especially among loyal of the outgoing president. About ten days ago, the Venetian commissioner Lorenzo Fontana had written to the secretaries about 400 sections del Carroccio inviting them to vote for the list Salvini-Lega Veneta and not that President of Zaia that the governor has built on the image of himself, to attract support even from those outside the league. The Carroccio galaxy is completed with a third autonomist list It mainly hosts local administrators. The invitation to snub Zaia, favoring the list bearing the secretary’s name, was broke More important than a distant confrontation between the powerful president of the regional council and the former interior minister, who begins to see Zaia’s personal success as smoke in his eyes.

Previously, as told by Ilfattoquotidiano.it – there was another test of strength, when Salvini imposed that regional councilors Outgoing candidates are candidates on the League’s list and not on Zaia’s. A way to give more weight to the subject that five years ago only collected the 17.82 percent of the vote, compared to 23.08 from the president’s personal list. Salvini would not want such a situation to happen again. In fact, some polls posted in recent weeks would even give Zaia alone to 44 percent, Salvini stopped at 14. Almost three more times. For this reason, the secretary has included outgoing weighty members such as councilors Roberto on the party list. Marked, Giuseppe Bread, Frederick Caner, Elisa From Berti, Manuela Lanzarotein, Christian Corazzari and regional leader Nicola Ignazio Farm. To avoid traffic jams in the provinces, only former councilor Gianpaolo Bottacin and the president of the regional council Roberto Donuts they were candidates on the Zaia list.

But now Salvini’s diktat highlights the first cracks in the perfect picture of winning Zaia and a League without controversy. The former president of the provincial council of Treviso (held the position for 16 years), Fulvio Pettenà, is from Treviso like Zaia, but above all it is indicated among the Zaia Boys, that is to say, those exponents of the Lega en la Marca that appeared alongside politics. The one who made the most career was Zaia, but the others also held important positions. After Fontana’s letter, Pettenà declared that Zaia and La Lega are the same, that only the party’s list can be invited to vote and not that of the outgoing governor. A posture you don’t like in via Bellerio in Milan. Pettenà, on the other hand, stumbled in an interview also in 2014 when he came discontinued for six months (but then the Venetian secretary was Flavio tosi, later assassinated by Salvini) for having declared that Tosi had not emphasized – as he deserved – Zaia’s honesty and the strangeness of the League since Mose scandal, which had given rise to the request for the arrest of Giancarlo Galán, with whom Zaia, as vice president, had shared the government of the Veneto for some years.

The departure of Pettenà promoted the commissioner of Treviso Gianangelo Bof to spread an eloquent statement. “In Pettenà I say that we focus on the elections, we already have theopposition that criticizes us. We don’t need internal opposition ”. Also: “I am learning the considerations linked to the provisions of the League by the militant Fulvio Pettenà. He has no role within the structure of the League that allows him to express himself political directions, so I invite you to speak exclusively with personal title and not on behalf of the League. “Again:” I clarify to the militant Fulvio Pettenà that a regional secretary of the party, the Honorable Lorenzo Fontana, or the National Secretary Honorable Matteo Salvini, as secretaries, invite the militants of the movement to support and vote for the League, it is considered aabsolutely normal also by Governor Luca Zaia. Perhaps it would scandalize me if it were not like that ”.

According to Bof, Pettenà’s words are “divisive”. For this reason, some clouds could accumulate in his head: “Pettenà is a historical militant, he has been in the League before me. So he knows what rules. I already called him once, in private. HE Disciplinary measures They are planned for him, as for me and for all those who have certain behaviors ”. A warning to the entire party base in Veneto. Too much enthusiasm for Zaia can be hostile to the secretary, even if the two of them, on the rare occasions they are together, flaunt that they get along perfectly.
