Schlein and the Rome waste-to-energy plant: "I imagine we will vote against the Odg M5S"

The point of contrast with the M5S remains.

In essence, Schlein replies that the Democratic Party will vote against the M5S-Verdi motion, against the construction of the waste-to-energy plant, and which should be voted on Thursday in Parliament. The motion aims to revoke the powers of commissioner conferred by the Draghi government on the Pd mayor of Rome Gualtieri who plays a fundamental card in his council on the construction of the plant.

On the Pnrr we have an attitude of stimulus and collaboration ».

Schlein: on the health dangerous regression of the government
