Salvini sees the triumph in Emilia Red earthquake The "no" that freezes the Democratic Party

The vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, Maria Edera Spadoni, was lapidary: "There is no news, we go ahead alone". The pentastellata decided to respond to the new attempt by outgoing governor Dem of theEmilia Romagna, Stefano Bonaccini, to convince the Movement to support him in the race to reconfirm. Spadoni reiterated the line announced by Di Maio the day after the yellow and red thud in Umbria. Guest Saturday 2 November of Agora, on Rai 3, Bonaccini had invited the M5S "to sit down and check whether there are convergences on the programs". "If I'm not here," he added "friends like before." Friends? The Dem, in the name of the armchair, pretends not to remember the trips fired by the 5 Stars on the Bibbiano case, or has a strange concept of friendship.

Another transmission, this time Omnibus, on La7, another bizarre declaration by Bonaccini: "The alliances made to beat the adversaries will never find me in agreement, because they would be a joke for the citizens". And how not: the coveted agreement with the grillini would not at all aim to prevent the victory of the League, let alone! The current government, then – it is known – was not born to prevent Salvini to become premier. Bonaccini, in obvious difficulty, went on the attack of the Northern League that on Wednesday evening, in Parma, inaugurated the electoral campaign together with the candidate Borgonzoni: "Did Salvini say he came to liberate Emilia Romagna?" Said Bonaccini. "The region was liberated, like the rest of the country, 74 years ago, and Salvini can come and say what he wants precisely because of that liberation. To tell the citizens that it would free a land because here it finds work only those who are friends with someone is offensive to the intelligence of the Emilia-Romagna people ».

Salvini's first stop in view of the January 26 vote was a huge crowd. "These are the polls that matter," the secretary of the Carroccio wrote on the social media in support of a photo showing the crowd of people present at the meeting. The polls, at least the national ones, however, are increasingly on the side of the League and the center-right. For Bonaccini the only hope of competing is linked to the alliance with the M5S. The followers of the Genoese comedian continue to slam the door in the governor's face. Except that the first historical victory of the center-right in the fiefdom of the Left could determine the fall of the government, and therefore it cannot be excluded that the parties find the agreement.

In the last hours, meanwhile, in Roman environments the hypothesis that Di Maio could still turn to the platform began to circulate with a certain insistence. Rousseau to ask the subscribers what they think of a possible new agreement with the PD. In the event of a negative outcome the leader (so to speak) of the 5 Stars would strengthen his internal position – nowadays weak – but he would risk becoming unemployed again. If instead the network votes in favor of the alliance, here in Emilia Romagna it would have left, but Di Maio should again deny himself. In the evening Borgonzoni responded to the mayor of Parma, Pizzarotti, who had accused Salvini of having said banality during the intervention in the city of the other night: «I notice a certain nervousness in the words of the first citizen, the same palpable in the declarations of his Pygmalion Bonaccini.
By chance, why were there so many Parmesans listening to Salvini and myself, in the central via Farini? We reveal a secret to him »added Borgonzoni« until, instead of being mayor and dealing with security, roads, decorum and kindergartens, he will deal with anti-fascist certificates for driveways, don't be surprised if people vote Lega » . We return to the Pd. In Bologna, between 15 and 17 November, the cultural foundation presided by Cuperlo will be presented and the national assembly will vote for party reform. "From next week" parliamentary sources say Dem "the leadership of the Democratic Party will move en masse to Emilia Romagna for the electoral campaign". For Bonaccini, yet another bad news.
