Electoral law, Russian “I don’t understand the left, it was for the second round”

ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “The left has always complained, even rightly, that there were almost never changes between the Chamber and the Senate. Introducing them is the normality of bicameralism. In fact, it should happen more often. Now it makes me perplexed that they complain of the proposed modification to make count for the purpose of a coalition victory also the votes of all political forces that do not reach 3%. And that they are not happy with that in favor of the alternation man-woman on the list.” Thus, in an interview with Corriere della Sera, on the proposals for modification of the electoral law, the President of the Senate, Ignazio La Russo, who adds: “I find incomprehensible the levy of shields on the left against the ballot. I proposed it several months ago, and in the first draft there was. The intent was to approach the positions between right and left, not to divide. It has always been more appreciated on the left. The Ceccanti constitutionalist, audito su richiesta del Pd, spent a lot in favor of the dance. And also Renzi (from the head of the Pd), Bersani, D’Alema and Franceschini spoke in favor”.

“The League – continues Russian – is not in favor of the ballot, perhaps fearing that it favors its Vannacci damage. He, on the contrary, protests and does not want it to be introduced. In fact, Senator Pera has tabled the amendment, not to disregard him or the PD, but because he believes it is the best solution. And his stature prevents us from thinking differently.” When asked if the Chambers of Majeure do not scare me, he answers: “No. Because with any law you can verify. And because if the majority were to spread with the ballot the seats would be assigned on a proportional basis.” And on the possibility that the ballot comes in the text, he says: “Improbable but not impossible. Less than 50%.” And to the observation if the League accepts compensation, he comments: “In the middle of the building, we don’t think so, and there would be no time. If anything, including the League, they should consider it more important to have a law that aims to have a stable government rather than the legitimate party interest.”.

With regard to possible convergences with Vannacci, “we can have themes in common – says the President of the Senate – as we have it with Schlein (Ukraine Support) and even with the Five stars. But there are substantial difformities: I think of shooting against feminist crime and the decisive differences in foreign policy. And then he betrayed the trust of Salvini. A general expected different ethical behavior. I do not wish it but it is not difficult to think that ‘who betrays once will betray again. Not to mention that he voted more with the left than with the right center“. He proclaims himself true right. “I’ve heard it say to many. To Forza Nuova and Casapound. But even before Pino Rauti, also a fior of intellectual and legitimately also to Storace. But the continuity with the due evolution is under the eyes of all: it is that of Giorgia Meloni – emphasizes Russian -. Tatarella said: we must defend the interest of the Italians before we must defend our identity. Otherwise we are content to bear pure witness, winning the left, to claim to be the true right”.

Blocked steward, loser preferences? “I am angry about this. I presented five years ago, when we discussed the current law, a rule that predicted preferences – the President of the Senate responds -. Except FdI have rejected it all, not only the left. Then I presented a median proposal that is exactly what the center-right has proposed: capolista blocked and the rest with preferences. They also rejected this. While they now pretend to be the defenders of the preferences they did not want and that the current law, which they would like to preserve without modification, in fact it does not preview”. “My hope – he reiterates – is that everyone competes. But if what you left has always propounded, I put it and you then take it…”. About the times, he adds: “The majority wanted to approve the Senate law before the holidays. If he’s still here, it’s because I didn’t allow forcing or excessive acceleration.”.
