"We have made serious commitments on the ecological transition, on natural resources, on energy prospects, on healthcare. Alessandra was legitimized by a fury of democratic votes". And (Alessandra) Todde will continue to govern. For the president of the Region comes the shield of the leader of the M5s Giuseppe Conte, who is in Nuoro to support the candidacy for mayor of Emiliano Fenu.

The former Prime Minister speaks the day after the first-instance ruling that rejected Todde's appeal against the order of injunction of forfeiture issued by the regional electoral guarantee board. Conte says he can deal with the issue "as a jurist, so I won't say the nonsense that is often heard in political debate." And he adds that "the Court declared its incompetence" to decide "referring the decision to the Regional Council, as required by law."

The Five Star Movement president, in addition to defending Todde's reporting and his legitimacy to remain in his position, attacked his detractors.

"I understand the nervousness of the center-right vultures," he said, "who have made rubble of this territory and who have squandered so many public funds to enrich some very specific business groups, leaving a disaster," but "they would do well to keep quiet and question themselves with their nerve. They, with the complicity of this government, have a minister (Salvini, ed.) who cuts funds for roads: 25 million taken away from maintenance."

According to Conte, there is no need to cut, "but to roll up our sleeves as Alessandra Todde is doing with our councilor Bartolazzi."
