Schlein at the 5Stelle parade opens up to Conte: “There are issues on which we can work together”. The 5S leader: “Grillo in the square? There will be a surprise

«Elly, Elly», is the chorus that welcomed the arrival of the secretary of the Democratic Party, Elly Schlein, at the procession of the Movimento 5 Stelle which has just left from Piazza della Repubblica. The secretary exchanged a hug with the president Giuseppe Conte and then stopped to take selfies with the participants in the labor demonstration. After making statements to the journalists present, Schlein left the procession.
In the end, therefore, the leader of the Democratic Party changed her mind and went to the #BastaVitePrecarie procession organized by the Five Star Movement. The dem secretary considered it better to be there. The reason is related to not being overtaken on the left. And during the procession Schlein’s declarations on points of union with the 5S arrive. “We wanted to bring a signal of willingness, to join forces on the issues on which the Movement has chosen to mobilize today” underlined the secretary of the Pd Elly Schlein arriving at the M5s procession in Rome. «Working together against precariousness, for the minimum wage and for income. You were right to mobilize Giuseppe »he then repeated to the Five Star leader after greeting him at the head of the M5s procession.
To then enter even further into the heart of the projects on which the two parties will be able to find a meeting point. «There are some issues, such as these and others such as the Pnrr and its implementation which is at risk with government delays, as well as the minimum wage, on which 5S, Pd, Avs and even Calenda can work together, and we we are here to try to keep the battle united on some issues on which we can work together and thus be more effective in countering the government which is knowingly increasing precariousness and poor work”. Thus the secretary of the Democratic Party who joined the procession for a brief presence in support of the demands of the demonstration.
A long way to go
In short, the gap between the Democratic Party and the Five Stars tends to get shorter, but there is a lot of work to be done. As the head of the Five Star Movement herself underlined: «We said it to each other: we have a long way to go, but absolutely this is a good step. Thanks for dropping by.” Thus the M5s president Giuseppe Conte to the secretary of the Pd Elly Schlein after greeting her at the head of the pentastellato procession.
Grillo presence hypothesis
“There will be a surprise.” Thus the leader of the 5 Star Movement Giuseppe Conte replied to those who asked, during the procession, if Beppe Grillo was planning to participate in the M5s demonstration.
The criticisms
«Never before had the leader of the Italian left been seen running after another party like this, enlisting in the procession of others supporting the arguments of others, making himself subordinate. My solidarity with the reformists of the Democratic Party, who I hope will take note of this drift”. Thus on Twitter the senator of the Action-Italia group long live Enrico Borghi.
