Berlusconi: "Away with the Jobs Act". But Renzi: "Tell it to the entrepreneurs"

The Jobs Act enters the election campaign. It is brought up by the leader of Forza Italia, Silvio Berlusconi, who announces the abolition of the labor reform launched by Matteo Renzi's government in the event of an electoral victory of the centre-right in the elections of 4 March. The reaction of the secretary of the Pd is ironic, according to which this move will cause the tycoon to lose the votes of the entrepreneurs, generally satisfied by the Jobs act which canceled article 18 introducing the contract with increasing protections.

Responding on Radio Anch'io to the question of whether he will abolish the Jobs act in the event of an electoral victory, Berlusconi said: "Yes, because it was an injection that gave a temporary boost but only to fixed-term contracts: out of 10 contracts signed, no less than 8 are been finished".

In a simultaneous interview on Radio Capital, Renzi replied: "The entrepreneurs of the North East will be happy, you know how they vote for him!".
