The Sicilian primaries of progressives are won by the MEP Pd Caterina Chinnici with 13,519 votes. The pentastellate candidate Barbara Floridia (10,068 votes) and that of the Centopassi Claudio Fava (6,977) were detached.
But Giuseppe Conte is not there, or he runs together in Rome or is ready to ignore the result of the primaries and to nominate Floridia.
The pentastellato leader asks the dem for “clarity”, because “in recent weeks many things have changed compared to when this path started. Before moving forward with the progressive alliance in Sicily, the Democratic Party will have to clarify and say if the social and environmental agenda of the M5S is their own direction or if the paths are now different, in line with the insults and declarations of these days. For us, what happens in Rome happens in Palermo ”.
Conte defines the Democratic Party as "arrogant" and claims: " We are more progressive" . On the government crisis, “we try to blame the M5S, which only asked for some critical issues to be resolved, it is infamy to say that it has betrayed. We are the real progressives, it is up to the Democratic Party to decide what to do , if they are looking for a moderate change that can also accommodate Calenda we cannot stay there, of course ".
For Enirco Letta, on the other hand, "the choice is clear, we or Meloni, two profoundly different Italy ". That of the Democratic Party "will be a house by house, street by street campaign", the starting point of the program is the Draghi agenda, "but going further on work, social justice, the struggle of inequalities and rights". With M5S "the path is interrupted, July 20 was the point of no return" .
And in the afternoon, interviewed on Rai3 at “In mezz'ora”, he adds to the dose: “I will not make an acrimonious campaign against M5S, but the break is irreversible. I told Conte if you take a decision of this type this will be the consequence and we are consistent with this choice ”. As for progressivism, on the other hand: “We of the 5S are much more progressive on various issues, I can make the list”.
