In the morning the leader of the center had met Berlusconi at Palazzo Chigi
Milan January 20, 2015-10 : 32
Matteo Renzi cashes the green sull’Italicum the assembly of the senators of the Democratic Party and leaving, after the meeting in the Senate, flaunts satisfaction (“I am very satisfied,” cut short with reporters who ask an opinion hot). But as secretary has to deal with a fracture increasingly evident with a part of his party: 29 senators, led by Bersani Michele Gotor , signed a document in which they manifest their opposition to the new law so as it is today, and those of them present at the meeting have chosen not to participate in the vote after hearing the premier pronounce a kind of ultimatum: “This is not a conscience vote. We discussed it, now we must be united. All vote my report. ” Eventually yes were 71, with one abstention. Reforms Minister, Maria Elena Boschi , down: “The numbers are ther e, we go quiet. I expect, however, that the 29 we rethink and classroom will vote according to the instructions of the group. ” And ‘likely, however, that it will not, at least in the words entrusted shortly after by the same Gotor to news agencies: “With the list headers blocked we will not vote the Italiacum. It will mean that Renzi will approve it by a vote of Verdini and Berlusconi. ”

Here are the 29 senators of the Democratic Party dissidents
Waiting for Forza Italy
In the morning the prime minister had met for about an hour at Palazzo Chigi the leader of Forza Italy Silvio Berlusconi. In the meeting, said the deputy secretary of the Democratic Party, Lorenzo Guerini , who took part, “there was no talk of Quirinale”, as it was assumed given the imminence of the vote. It is instead discussed the electoral law and the need to conclude the process that began a year ago with the “Covenant of the Nazarene.” “We reiterated our position in Forza Italy – said Guerini reporters -. Position that involves no to lists puffs and a mechanism with list headers and preferences. Now waiting for a response from Forza Italy. ” It is this direct line to the former Knight had angered the minority: “Now the discussion is only for Renzi with Berlusconi. With us, however, no negotiations. ” The leader of Forza Italy, for its part, after the meeting is back at Pal azzo Grazioli to make the point with his loyalists. According to early rumors, he would ask the party to live up to the Covenant of the Nazarene and would announce an upcoming meeting in the coming days, with Renzi to discuss specifically the election of the new President of the Republic.
“Warranty anti-mess-ups”
It was the same Renzi, before the meeting with Berlusconi, via Twitter to anticipate the location of the secretariat of the Nazarene on the electoral law. “With the Italicum preferences and individual candidates for college. Disappear blocked lists. Ballot is guaranteed anti-mess. ” A message for the timing seemed to many a message to Berlusconi on the determination not to yield to internal pressures and not to make further changes to the text, in addition to those already made in recent months with the passage 37-40% of the threshold for snap the majority of the premium, the allocation of the same to the list and not the coalition and the lowering of the threshold of 3% access in Parliament, first established at 8% for non-coalition forces.
Q & A with Meloni
The tweet of Renzi had not gone unnoticed: retweeted and commented, had given way to the head of the government to respond and to clarify some points that are close to my heart: “We want to avoid blocked lists (provided by “porcellum” which was voted in the last three consultations, nda ). Candidate college anywhere up to two preferences. ” “In our proposal to the list (the majority premium, nda). So disappears veto power of the smaller parties. ” And then an answer to Giorgia Meloni , who had pointed out that “with the list headers blocked 2/3 of the deputies will still be appointed by the parties”: “Our law is based on preferences and candidates of college . Clear blocked lists that you had voted for you, remember? “. And yet Meloni: “Never voted blocked lists, me. You are: your proposal does appoint parties 70% of the deputies. The rest is chatter. ” Then the leader of the Brothers of Italy has officially requested a meeting with the head of government to illustrate a proposal on reducing the number of “appointed.”
The game of the Quirinale
At first it was thought that the summit at Palazzo Chigi could also center on the Quirinal, whereas just yesterday in Milan Berlusconi himself had found an agreement with the leader of the New Centre-Right, Angelino Alfano, the profile of the new tenant of the Hill that have pointed out, “there must be representative of the Democratic Party.” A line on the principle but not yet on the names (those were done by Amato and Casini) would agree also the secretary of the Northern League , Matteo Salvini , who has repeatedly said they no longer want “a candidate of the left.” And that creates additional fibrillation within the Democratic Party, where the front of bersaniani and the minority of the left continues to rally around the name of Romano Prodi (he reiterated the same Pierluigi Bersani speaking yesterday evening LA7), evoking the possibility of a different majority “quirinalizia” involving not Forza Italy but Sel and the Movement 5 Stars.
“Do not play with Alfano and Cicchitto “
On the right in any case one can not yet speak of unity of purpose. The same Salvini, now beside himself for the decision of the consultation to consider inadmissible the referendum to abolish the law Fornero, keeps his distance from Berlusconi: “If I had seen him I would have asked for a midfielder and two defenders for Milan – has said in an interview with the BBC about his relationship with the leader forzista -. Here, however, we do not lose two games: we are losing a generation. ” Although the latest polls would reward an axis between the Blues and the League says Salvini, “has the credibility.” “And I – he added – are not willing to stake the League. If Berlusconi intends to propose again the Alfano and Cicchitto, we do not play that game. ” And again: “The point is not to make low-power operations. It is not just the fact that the votes of the League are not summ able to those of Alfano. The fact is that Forza Italy continues to be a help to the government. “
