R OMA – With a long speech 44 minutes Matteo Renzi tried the path of mediation on the thorny issue of Article 18 and labor reform. Both on the domestic front, proposing to leave life in the controversial rule in the case of discriminatory dismissal and disciplinary (the latter never mentioned so far: So did
a step further with respect to the reinstatement only for the discriminatory dismissals of which there was talk in recent days), excluding only dismissal for economic reasons. And in relation to the social partners It declared its willingness to open a discussion table with the unions at Palazzo Chigi. The minority party recognize the opening of the secretary, but defending their positions. The game therefore remains open until the last minute, when it will vote on the final document.
The long-awaited direction Pd on labor reform, that is dividing the majority party in the country, was supposed to start at 17 but began an hour later, because in the meantime, Matteo Renzi has dealt with the minorities in extremis, looking for a solution that can quell the controversy and keep everyone happy.
The speech of Renzi. “I propose to vote clearly at the end of a discussion document – begins the Secretary opened the meeting of the party – which marks the path of the Democratic Party on issues of labor and allows us to overcome some taboos that have characterized us in these years. ” Renzi therefore calls for a certain position on “a major reorganization of the labor market and also the welfare system.”
“We need a country that wants to invest in and provide answers to new weaknesses which are many and need answers than those given so far – continues Renzi – The safety net is broken, should not be eliminated but sewn up , knowing that there is a State friend who helps them. ” “We are the only party -prosegue- discussing internally with some animosity, but this can not be less than the mutual respect. Anyone who does not think like the answer does not think like the Flintstones. Whoever thinks as the secretariat not rival of Margaret Thatcher. “
He adds: “Mediations are fine, the compromise is fine, but you do not make compromises at all costs. We are not a club of philosophers but a political party that decides, and discusses some splits on the outside but is all together. This is the company for me. “
In May,” the voters have asked us to change Italy and the EU, “said the secretary.” I do not care about the plots of others, of those who feel dispossessed, do not call them strong powers, nor powers estate – aggiunge- call them, perhaps with over-estimate, powers aristocrats. “And those who accuse him of doing just ads, he replied:” We have given life to an extraordinary reform process, the face of the ads. Reforms that are set or approved in the presence of a consensus, contradicting those who say that if you do you lose the reform consensus. “
” Reforming labor law is sacrosanct – insists Renzi – And who says to me that deleting Article 18 take away a constitutional right, the answer is no constitutional right in Article 18, but in having at least one job. If article 18 was the constitutional reference then why for 44 years there was no difference between companies with 15 employees or more? “.
” Work is not a law in Italy, the work is a duty – said the secretary – Article 1 of the Constitution says that Italy is a republic founded on work, but in reality sank on advantageous position. The work is created by innovating, not by defending the rules of 44 years ago. We must have the courage to go on the attack, to change, otherwise we will leave forever the dominance of technocracy. You have to start a reform of the statute that extends to all the welfare and eliminate contracts as co.Co.Pro. “
It also clarifies that the government is working because” the severance pay can be inserted from 1 January 2015 in payroll, through a protocol between Abi, Confindustria and the government to allow a further step in the purchasing power “hypothesis rejected by Enterprise Network:” E ‘unthinkable that small businesses may incur additional financial efforts, such as the anticipated monthly severance pay to employees. “
And then the proposal:” The current system of restoration must be overcome, some leaving for discriminatory and disciplinary. What you propondo is to change. This reform is left, if the left is to defend the workers and not the totem. If you need to defend the future, not the past. If you need to defend everyone, not someone already guaranteed. “
Finally amazes the audience with an announcement: “I am ready to confront the unions at Palazzo Chigi. Li sfido- concludes – on three points: a law on union representation, the second-level bargaining and the minimum wage. “
The debate and the position of minorities. An opening there has been “commented minorities in the course of direction, but much will depend on the document that you are working in these minutes and that will go on until one minute before the vote tonight. Some members of the reformist Area, while the meeting is still in progress, judge the relationship of Matteo Renzi as an initial opening which, however, will have to follow a draft of the document to be voted subsequent to this opening. For now, the minority of the left is oriented to a vote of abstention, but all, they explain, will depend on how the final document will be written.
to Gianni Cuperlo , is considered as the ultimate appeal to the Secretary to find the square. The exponent of the minority that has in its reference Pier Luigi Bersani, hopes that we can find a summary shared: “Matthew I want the good of the country as you want. Recognize your leadership, the political and the election. Six the secretary of my party and the prime minister legitimized. You’re not the reincarnation of Mrs. Thatcher., but there is not even a dominus, the Democratic Party can not be there. should raise the question that comes out of your party continue to seek a solution effective, more convincing. Which when I came here tonight, I did not think. ” “Quine adds Cuperlo- you do not have people willing to give up a portion of their convictions.”
Massimo D’Alema Renzi advises caution: “I heard a series of statements without foundation. Fascination oratory sometimes does not adhere to reality, “he says. “It is true that Article 18 is a taboo for 44 years, since it was changed two years ago (he says, alluding to the reform of 2012, ed ) and in fact there is almost no more. Exists a residual protection, you should monitor the effects of the rule and then act on that rule. “
Harder Goofy Civati , which is the most adamant minority wing,” Yesterday evening on TV, I saw a premier
saying things right, similar to what he was saying the right 10 years ago, “he says, confirming his opposition to the positions of secretary. “I ask – he says in conclusion of his speech – if any amendment of minorities will favor the Democratic Party because it’s also why you see the tone of the mediation.”
But it seems to be the most intransigent Pier Luigi Bersani , that there is a “take it or leave it”, “We do not go there on the edge for the article 18 We go there for the method Boffo, because if one says its must be able to say without being deprived of the dignity. For newcomers to the company say that it does not work that way. I want to discuss before there is a take it or leave it, before my load of responsibility to topple a party or the government. ” Former Secretary then clarifies: “In my work there is a proxy in this capacity deficit reform. Reforms We have done hard, I do not you come and say that we have not done anything. Trembles There the wrist, but with this reform we lose an opportunity. ” For Bersani you can not “tell that there are not occupied because Article 18 We must rebuild a manufacturing base.”

So, while you go to a showdown inside, a statement issued by the Colle lets you know that this morning the Prime Minister -segretario was received at the Quirinale from the head of state, Giorgio Napolitano . In the same time, the trade unions in fibrillation have come together to seek agreement on the jobs act: CGIL, CISL and UIL, the question that they feel cut off from the prime minister, tried to understand whether there are margins due to the different positions to unified action.
The tension is high, and the Pd D’Attorre insists: “Our goal is not to change the prime minister or seek solutions botched, the problem is to change government policy. Splitting is outside the order of the arguments. The question is whether the agenda and priorities are decided in the Democratic Party and in the majority – he said – or whether they are the result of prior consultation with Force Italy. because the feeling you get is that the order of priorities for government action is functional to the maintenance of a direct agreement with Forza Italy. “
