The councilor of the Piedmontese League insults the Pd: "In the new hospital a psychiatric tower for you"

"I am thinking of modifying the Healthcare Plan with the construction of a psychiatric tower in which the remnants of the war left of the Turin Left are admitted." Thus stated in a statement the Councilor for Health of the Piedmont Region, the League's Luigi Icardi, responding to the controversy over the health care construction projects. Phrases that infuriate the local Democratic Party.The leader of the junta Cirio has in fact been targeted by the opposition for his desire to leave Sant'Anna (obstetrician-gynecological) and Regina Margherita (infantile) hospitals outside the project of the future Health Park. "After years of inactivity" the project on the Parco della Salute "was finally unlocked by this new regional council with the agreement of all the institutional subjects of competence and now goes on its way", says the councilor.
But it is precisely this reference to the psychiatric tower that makes the Democrats embarrass. Icardi's words are "delirious" for the metropolitan secretary of the Democratic Party, Mimmo Carretta, who asks Governor Cirio to intervene. And evaluate "the conditions for a complaint". The reply by Domenico Ravetti, leader of the dem in the Regional Council is also hard: "We are shocked by the seriously offensive phrases of Icardi that we find it hard to believe can be pronounced by a regional councilor. A vulgar reaction towards regional councilors who ask questions and formulate criticisms in the exercise of their prerogatives. Behavior without justification. We will ask Cirio to intervene to protect the regional council. Perhaps Icardi is not suited to fill his role. " Anna Rossomando, vice president of the Senate and dem exponent, accused: "Thinking of hospitalizing political opponents in a psychiatric hospital is not a proposal neither new nor original, it has already happened in history. The statement of the regional councilor Icardi is very serious. Cirio governor assess whether a person who expresses these positions can continue to play the role of councilor in the Piedmont regional council ".
