A new group with Italy of values. It is the latest suggestion of some dissidents of the 5 Star Movement in the Senate. The announcement of the expulsion by the regent Vito Crimi has opened the way to the split. And this time it could be a mass spill, organized with the landing at other shores. There is a temptation to knock on the door of the IDV, now led by Ignazio Messina after the farewell of the founder Antonio Di Pietro. From what some sources report a IlGiornale.itin fact, the pentastellated parliamentarians at Palazzo Madama are evaluating all outlets. The most probable is the IDV, but it is not the only one, because it is necessary to study its practical and regulatory feasibility.
The confrontation is open. An anti-Draghi deputy points out: “No steps for the constitution of a group”: The reason? “The situation is faster than our movements”. Therefore, there are no official confirmations. “After all, these operations are announced once things are done”, notes a member of parliament. Meanwhile in the Chamber there will be ten deputies who will speak personally on the explanations of vote for the confidence. The list includes Alvise Maniero, Angela Raffa, Francesco Forciniti, Pine Goats, Andrea Colletti, Jessica Costanzo, Paolo Giuliodori, Andrea Vallascas, Giovanni Russo e Rosa Alba Testament. Whether it is the core of a new split remains to be seen. Also because Raffa announced a painful favorable vote.
Opposition and guarantee fees
The headlights are therefore focused on Di Pietro’s former party. “Easy to imagine that the senator Elio Lannutti (with a past as a member of parliament elected in the Idv, ed), can act as a point of connection for the easier solution “, explains an M5S source. The request for the symbol, however, will be advanced in Messina only when the abacus marks ten senators necessary for the constitution of a group or in any case when there will be a clearer picture At the moment the IDV secretary is on stand-by, he cannot confirm or deny due to the absence of elements.
The indiscretion, however, has already caused repercussions in the corridors of the Chamber. “A new opposition group would have full right to ask for the presidencies of the guarantee commissions”, explain from the Brothers of Italy that it could have obtained them all, being so far the only opposition between the House and the Senate. There is talk of Copasir and Rai Vigilanza, not really secondary things, which are chaired by a member of the opposition.
The Dibba dream
With the headlights off, there are those who dream of convincing Alessandro Di Battista to join the initiative. It would be a start with a bang. Except that Dibba has no intention of switching to other parties, preferring a role of “free opponent”. He has said this publicly and does not want to betray the consistency he claims in every intervention. And now it also does it on social networks. “There are things to say. Political choices to defend. Questions to answer and a healthy and robust opposition to build. See you Saturday at 6.00 pm with #DiBattistaLive on Instagram. Courage!”, Writes Dibba on Facebook. So the operation should be conducted in Parliament, among the future expelled. At Palazzo Madama Weather in Mattia Crucioli he admitted he was working for a new opposition group. The crux is that the dissident patrol is not a monolith, quite the contrary.
The president of the Anti-Mafia commission, Nicola Morra, is willing to give a hard time to the leaders of the Movement to contest the expulsion. Unlikely to get on board the IDV group. Matteo Mantero, always on independent positions, is another senator who is waiting for what the 5 Stars will decide. He is not indicated among the eligible candidates for the operation. Then there is the former minister of the yellow-green government, Barbara Lezzi, which is one of the most active against the birth of the Draghi government. And he doesn’t skimp on attacks on Crimi. However, he is the exponent most linked to Dibba’s positions and it is likely that he does not want to leave the Movement.
The candidates of the new group in the Senate
Thus serve other banks. You have to understand the orientation of Bianca Laura Granato, pasionaria of the first hour of “No Draghi”. Then there is the “Campania core”, composed of Laura Angrisani, Fabio Di Micco, Silvia Giannuzzi e Vilma Moronese. With their adhesion, the constitution of the group would be almost a step away, because among the possible interlocutors there are also Rosa Abate, Margherita Corrado, Cataldo Mininno, Virginia La Mura e Fabrizio Ortis. A consistent number. Very difficult that the “contiani doc”, like Emanuele Dessì, can embrace a splinter project. Also because they were absent from the vote of confidence and could escape expulsion.
But for what reason i dissidents should they turn to Italy of values? The question is technical and pertains to the regulation of the Senate. For the constitution of a group you need a symbol present in the last political elections and the IDV participated in the popular Civic list. In short, it is necessary to evaluate all the regulatory procedures, which do not make the operation easy. There is also a political plan to animate the debate: “It is true that Italy of values was very close to us at the beginning. But a lot has changed since then”, notes a loyalist member of the 5 Star Movement, who will vote Dragons.
In the Chamber the question is different: the group needs twenty deputies, without the need to have one symbol. This is why we will see in the next few hours, after Draghi’s vote of confidence: “In the event of a deep split, an autonomous group is necessary”, they insist in the dissidents’ area. The motivation is strategic: “It can attract more and more discontent with the 5 Star Movement. Because at the beginning maybe the votes against will be less than expected, but day after day the malpancisti will increase”.
