THE REPLY

 All this would reply a very little intimidated head of government during a forum in the headquarters of the newspaper Il Mattino: “They can insult, threaten, throw stones and tear gas, but we – said Renzi – we are stronger and more determined threat of their insults. We promised that we unlock the country and work for it. We do not intend to go back one centimeter with respect to this commitment. It ‘s time that a political class, regardless of insults and threats, decided to decide.

<' p> And for what in Bagnoli should be “the greatest work of environmental recovery of Italian history ‘ , the prime minister said he was confident in making a request to the magistrates for the restitution of the area to be reclaimed in the next three years. And then, in the wake of the recent controversy about the relationship between the government and the judiciary, Renzi has stated: “I am not attacking the prosecutors. In fact, I say that if you steal you have to put in jail, but the work, public or private, must not be blocked. But today in Italy it happens that block the work and do not put the thief in jail, following lengthy investigations that often do not lead to final judgment, as is required by the Constitution. “

 Addressed by Renzi also in the morning forum of party themes, in the wake of the clash following the Naples primaries: “The Democratic Party – said – he has the cards in rules to try. The Democratic Party is in conditions to gamble. ” Following the recovery operation of “a piece of history” Neapolitan “From Secretary of Democrats say that Valeria Valente won the primaries, but compared to Bassolino and the controversy after the primaries, still as secretary I appeal to all for ‘unit, from Bassolino who scored a piece of important history of this city. ” Finally, for anyone who will be mayor in June, has promised the government’s cooperation, “always – it is the gloss of the premier mischievous – there is reciprocity and will to cooperate.”
