The Democratic Party to Meloni: “Ok in comparison, but the reforms are not a distraction from the country’s problems”. Sala on farewell to Cottarelli: “It’s not a good sign”

Complicated day for the Democratic Party which today has to close ranks after the farewell announced yesterday by Carlo Cottarelli. Leakage, even from Parliament, which «is not a good sign – for the mayor of Milan Giuseppe Sala -. I can say that knowing Cottarelli a little I expected it, because he feels he belongs to a liberal and progressive line that he obviously doesn’t see represented». The mayor of Milan hopes that the haemorrhage in the Democratic Party will stop here: «Above all because little seems to be emerging at the moment and there is little room for his skills and his desire to contribute to the more economic logic of industrial policy. I’m sorry and I hope there are no other exits because they are not needed right now. Knowing him personally, it’s not something that surprised me.”

The meeting of the secretary took place in the morning, which was held online and was attended by the parliamentarians who are part of the constitutional affairs commissions. The meeting was to take stock in view of tomorrow’s meeting with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on the reforms: «We will discuss the issues and bring a position but the convocation is not a way to distract attention from the issues that interest people and the needs of the country: work, health, Pnrr”. In the afternoon, however, the assembly of the Pd group in the Chamber is scheduled at 14.30. On the agenda, in addition to communications from the parent company, Chiara Braga, is the establishment of the presidency office.
