After the electoral failure in Venice, Arezzo and Sicily, the premier and secretary of the Pd, Matteo Renzi he goes on the attack in the party and in the Government: "These elections say that with Renzi 2 you can't win, I have to return to Renzi 1: no more mediations and no more primaries in the Democratic Party".
Renzi he promises to deal more with the Democratic Party and explains: “I didn't choose the candidates for the elections: I didn't say anything about Casson, Paita, De Luca, Emiliano. It takes more personality, because if copies run instead of the originals, then it doesn't work". Then a general consideration towards the dem left: "This is a moderate country, whoever occupies the center wins". Renzi mentions the case of Liguria but he could also refer to Venice: "In Liguria, Paita did not lose because Civati's candidate took away some votes, which probably would not have gone to her anyway, but she lost because in the last week the 5% of the center voters have moved towards Toti”.
According to the secretary, the Democratic Party must renew itself profoundly and look more like Obama and less like Mastella or Pajetta.
Accelerator also in the action of the Government: no more mediations. “I will have to – promises the premier – increase the revs, not decrease them. And from today the reforms are closer”. Let's hope so.
