" No to the privatization of the Cagliari-Elmas airport ", say in chorus the candidates for mayor of Cagliari gathered in a debate organized by Confcommercio Sud Sardegna . (Almost) everyone arrives at the meeting: Massimo Zedda , centre-left, Alessandra Zedda , centre-right, Emanuela Corda , Alternativa, Giuseppe Farris , CiviCa 20224. Only Claudia Ortu, Cagliari Popolare, is missing, busy with another meeting at USB.

The mayoral candidates for the leadership of Palazzo Bacaredda know that they are playing "at home" : the trade association, in fact, has been carrying on the battle against the privatization of the airport for some time. And they respond in unison to the call: the airport is an essential public service , for this reason the management must remain in public hands. «Public management is proving to be efficient», said Giuseppe Farris of CiviCA 2024.

The centre-right candidate Alessandra Zedda is of the same opinion: «I immediately embraced Confcommercio's battle against the privatization of the airport». “Essential public services must remain in the hands of the public,” added Massimo Zedda del Campo Largo. Emanuela Corda from Alternativa is along the same lines: «A public domain can reach the private domain when there is a situation of malfunctioning, but this is not the case. They are robbing us and we must not allow it."

There are also doubts about the shopping center in the former Fas area of Elmas: "It will kill small businesses."
