An intervention on higher incomes and assets “with solidarity levies to protect those who are worse off, those who have difficulty making it to the end of the month”. This is the request made by the general secretary of the CGIL, Maurizio Landini, leaving Palazzo Chigi after meeting with Mario Draghi and the minister Andrea Orlando. In detail, according to the leader of the CGIL, one could think of an asset that provides for a levy for those with an ISEE “over a million euros”. But a no comes from the government. How ever stopped. The premier’s halt comes after yet another tear that is consumed on the fiscal delegation, complete with a brawl in Parliament.
“The government does not touch the homes of Italians”
The fact is that the executive “has no intention of raising taxes” as declared by Palazzo Chigi. President Draghi “has repeatedly declared his commitment since the beginning of his mandate, in Parliament, in public meetings”, this “at international summits and also in various discussions with the leaders of the majority forces”. In the case of the tax delegation, the premier has specified, even recently, that the provision does not lead to increases in the taxation of properties regularly stacked. «Nobody will pay more taxes. The government does not touch the homes of Italians ».
Permanent table opening
From an economic point of view more on the whole, the situation remains complicated. The unions speak of an emergency, which requires further interventions to help workers, families and businesses, grappling with the rush of inflation, rising energy prices and the impact of the war in Ukraine. During the meeting with the acronyms, the premier for his part brings to the table a format of permanent and habitual dialogue with the trade unions to address the months of profound uncertainty ahead. The premise is that the feeling of social unease is becoming more and more marked. Hence, it is explained, the idea of a pact intended as a working method. We need all the skills to deal with this situation, the general secretary of the CGIL Maurizio Landini also agreed.
