Silvio Berlusconi supporter of the Draghi government until 2023, that is until "we have come out of the emergency".

The Forza Italia leader made it clear in a party meeting at Villa Gernetto di Lesmo, in Brianza, with the national party coordinator, Antonio Tajani, the group leaders in the Senate, Annamaria Bernini, and in the Chamber, Paolo Barelli, and all the regional coordinators of the Azzurri's youth.

"We will be the first to collaborate loyally in the activity of this government, which must remain in office for as long as necessary, until 2023, until we have emerged from the emergency. Then we can return to the natural alternation between two competing sides. them ", he punctuated.

"We are facing the most serious health and economic emergency of the post-war period - he added -. Never before have Italians asked for common sense from those who govern them, they ask for balance, they ask for competence. These are the characteristics that we implement every day and they are the reasons why we were the first to ask for the creation of an emergency government like the one chaired by Mario Draghi, in which all the political forces have put aside something of their identity, to roll up their sleeves together ".

"This government, the Draghi government, is a coalition government, an anomalous coalition that brings together political forces that are naturally antagonistic. Obviously we cannot expect the same choices from them - underlined the former prime minister - that a center-right government would make. . However, we must acknowledge that most of our proposals have been accepted and implemented, both as regards the fight against the pandemic and as regards economic policy choices. After all, ours are choices inspired by common sense and reasonableness, and thanks to these choices, for the moment Italy is one of the countries that are obtaining the best results in Europe, both in terms of health and economics ".

AGAINST NO-VAX - In a passage of the speech he also used very harsh words towards no-vax: "The new variants of this terrible disease are very dangerous, they could cause many victims and still put the health system in difficulty. the only tools we have to avoid it are the vaccine and the strict observance of the rules of prudence. It is absolutely not acceptable that the imprudence of some, with the irrational refusal of the vaccine, endangers the whole community. It is not a right to freedom to paralyze our cities by preventing traders from working and people from moving ".

CITIZENSHIP INCOME - Finally, a consideration on citizenship income whose revision is “a reasonable compromise: we imagined a different instrument, but the issue of poverty in Italy is objective and in many areas of the country very serious. Among other things, I am thinking of young people awaiting employment, who continue to burden families already close to the poverty line ".
