All the parties of the majority, including the League, have withdrawn the amendments to the green pass bill from examination by the Chamber of the Chamber. This was announced by parliamentary sources explaining that at this point the government will not place the trust. The League would obtain that an agenda on free salivary swabs will be presented by the majority to the Green pass decree (according to what is learned after all the groups that support the government have decided to withdraw the amendments).
“We have shown good will by removing all our amendments and turning them into the agenda. It is clear that if we reject the proposals we will vote accordingly ”, explained Matteo Salvini. “If there are amendments that we share from whoever arrives, we support them”, the leader of the League replied to those who asked him if the League is ready to vote on the proposed changes presented by FdI. «On the basis of how many of our proposals will be accepted, we will evaluate accordingly, but our trust in the government and in Draghi has never been questioned. If we reject our proposals, we will vote against. Parliament is made to speak and to discuss ».
“Since it is about the health, work and school and life of Italians, if there are proposals that we share, from whoever they come, we support them.” “We are working to guarantee health, work and freedom for Italians. So we are insisting on free tampons, especially for minors, the disabled, for families with children who cannot spend 30 euros per tampon “, said Salvini,” to guarantee the right to school and also to university for all thanks to hundreds of university professors who are urging people to avoid discrimination in classrooms, because the right to education affects everyone. And we reiterate the no to any kind of obligation given that the Italians, already 40 million, have voluntarily, freely and positively chosen. We are among the most vaccinated countries in Europe, not to mention closures as Minister Speranza does, throwing the Italians who deserve more into despair ».
For Mario Daghi it is a success, because the negotiations to avoid the amendments had gone on until last night, even if the League had pointed out that there were only five. Minister Giorgetti himself had certified that there will be a new extension of the health passport. A line opposite to that followed by other exponents of the Via Bellerio party such as Borghi who, in case of trust, threatened – and with him at least another ten deputies – against the executive. But the prime minister aimed to avert an internal clash within the government, and he succeeded. In the League, critical voices remain strong. «Majority amendments withdrawn. Following this, the government has said that there will be no trust and the green pass decree can be discussed in the classroom. It seems to me a duty for a minimum respect to Parliament, ”writes Northern League player Claudio Borghi, president of the Montecitorio Budget Commission, in a tweet.
Draghi is focused on organizing an extraordinary G20 on Afghanistan, today he is planning a video call with Chinese President Xi Jinping. And for now he has not even called the control room, indeed it is possible that a meeting of the representatives of the political forces in government could be held next week. To bring the decree home in the Chamber and then arrive at the extension of the green pass also in the workplace. Longer times are therefore expected for the expansion of the use of the health passport, even if Minister Speranza assured that it will soon arrive in this direction. Today, the secretary of the CGIL, Landini, went to Draghi. They discussed – they explained from Palazzo Chigi – “the prospects of the economy in view of the coming months and the main issues related to the issue of work”. The request of the unions is that the companies bear the cost of the tampons.
