Poisoned fruit of Bersanian beginning of the legislature in a pro-grillino key, the Speaker of the Chamber, Laura Boldrini, forgot her duties of institutional impartiality during the Christmas holidays and, in an interview yesterday with "Il Fatto Quotidiano", broke two spears in favor of the opposition and launched two torpedoes against the Renzi government.
Boldrini, who was elected to the Chamber as Sel's leader, did not miss the opportunity to anticipate her vote in favor of the No in the autumn referendum on the constitutional reform of the Senate, arguing that "those who say no are not necessarily conservatives ” and that, although everyone is in favor of overcoming the perfect bicameralism “dissension has emerged on how to make these reforms”.
Not a word, however, on the fact that the overcoming of equal bicameralism had been awaited for over twenty years and has only now been achieved: if that of the opponents was not conservatism, as Boldrini claims, it can be called inconclusiveness, a state of confusion or, in some cases, stonewalling?
But going to the point, as it forces the referendum to be done with a Yes or a No: better a constitutional reform, perhaps imperfect, but which cuts the costs of parliamentarians, avoids duplication between the Chamber and the Senate and archives useless entities such as the Cnel or is the status quo better?
The second assist to the grillina opposition and to Sel la Boldrini launches it on the citizen's income, a workhorse above all of the 5 Star Movement and already rejected by Matteo Renzi because it has unsustainable costs for the public coffers and because it has an unequivocally charitable nature by not worrying to push recipients to look for a job but limiting themselves to plastering the existing situation.
A study by the Chamber, which Boldrini presides over despite belonging to an extreme minority group, on the costs of the citizen's income would be interesting, but the president of Montecitorio is careful and prefers to take refuge in a corner, appealing to Europe: "You could support with a financial transaction tax or a carbon tax”. Congratulations.
