Pd, Civati ​​decided: “I leave the group Pd for consistency” – The Republic

Rome – “I leave the group of the Democratic Party. To be consistent with what I believe in and with the mandate they have given me the voters, I do not feel more than a vote of confidence to the government Renzi. The result is to leave the group. ” Therefore the decision is taken. Pippo Civati ​​ will leave the group Democratic Party in the House. The ‘dissident’ Democratic Party had expressed – immediately after the ok all’Italicum – its willingness to cease all support to the government.

A choice, to get out, which in all likelihood will be in solitary: no other of ‘his’ will follow. Virtually discounted the landing in the mixed group – where just over a month ago has already gone to sit Luca Pastorino , civatiano, candidate for the leadership of the Liguria Region against the same Pd – pending the reorganization within Sel.

In
Pd – Civati ​​writes on his blog – “have promoted and approved, without wanting to talk about electoral laws, labor reforms and the constitution, cementing and drilling, and there We found them on TV to mock the reasons of those who defend the environment and believes that the future steps through different solutions. Too bad (especially for them) because instead the future would be at hand, it would be enough to learn how to marry tradition and change, combining ancient things as rights and as brand new innovation. “

A post, published on the blog, titled The energy that can change our lives , inspired by the figure of “Nikola Tesla, born in Serbia in mid-1800 and US naturalized” . Civati ​​said that “it was a pioneer of electricity, his theoretical work is the basis of the AC system and gave a decisive boost to the second industrial revolution, but it was also a character shrouded in a certain air of mystery, and with him some of his theories least understood. “

” The Tesla Energy, which is no coincidence collects surname – continues to write – is instead a California one of the most innovative and kept under observation for his inventions in the field production and storage of electricity. For several days he speaks about the Powerwall, that size seems a bit ‘a boiler but is actually a battery, wall version, able to convey the energy produced by solar panels for home, and for the first time solves the problem so far insurmountable its conservation, making it available when you need it “.

” Even for those without technical knowledge – he said – it is clear that this innovation that comes from so long ago could soon stop our dependence on energy-producing infrastructure, with a revolutionary impact on our lives, on the economy, on the planet in which we live ” .

“it” is “a good metaphor, a metaphor excellent reason why so many of us love to politics and we have devoted so much time in recent years. At one point, without warning, it just happened that one day some people I thought we had shared this vision have changed their minds. This is the story that interests me tell, from the beginning, I’m sorry for those who have changed their minds, but for my part I will continue to do so with all those who want it. I think they are many. “

The day after the green light to electoral reform, in fact, the internal voltage to dem had continued to take its toll: according to minority dem, the fracture that has worn on overcoming porcellum was too deep to not bring consequences. Last night Civati ​​had summoned her and the merits of the ‘tear’ had said: “I will decide in the coming hours, but I’m not more to do the dog and eventually feel even mocked who says Viva Civati ​​. But joking? “. The reference was to the same premier Matteo Renzi that yesterday, who had shouted” Down with Civati ​​”, he responded by saying, in fact:” Why do I lower Civati? Viva Civati! We are to keep everyone inside. “

Since the Democratic Party, commenting on today’s decision of the parliamentary ‘rebel’ is the reformist dem Dario Ginefra :” It can not to please the exit by a party of any member, let alone a person with the qualities of Pippo, but the news of his choice contributes to clarity. It is at the bottom of the chronicle of a death foretold. To Pippo is an uneasiness that had matured since the government Letta when he declared not to participate voluntarily to a vote of confidence and, albeit after a long labor, actually dotted with numerous votes in contrast to its parent group, is accrued up to become today a fully informed choice. However there remains the hope that he can mature an afterthought. “

But as Sel is Nicola Fratoianni to announce:” Civati ​​has made a choice which is the fruit of a long accumulation of distances from pd, who are nearby with Sel. We are ready to give birth as soon as a political force able to give voice to the many distances from the Democratic Party who become close with Sel, the many strengths, who does not believe that there is no alternative to pd . We are ready, as said also Nichi Vendola , to question the structure of the party and the parliamentary group because we think that today it is urgent to create a common response to the problems we have. “
