was held yesterday in the provincial assembly Jesi Ecology of Freedom Left on the agenda with the election of new provincial spokesman. Among the four candidates was also my name. A few days ago because some friends asked me availability for this important role. I at first I declined the invitation, but then, by dint of talking and I decided I agreed, thinking primarily by the desire to contribute to the birth of the party of SEL. With two other candidates, read the program and discussed the intentions of each, we quickly found a strong cohesion, which led us to find a synthesis, to the point where it was decided that we would present a single candidate.
now happy to have found the estimation of the two other contenders: Alejandra Arena and Roberto Ballerini, the Assembly decided to votarmi with a large majority.
The commitment I know it will be hard, given the numerous issues you will face, but also exciting to see if you can start a new political path, one of participation and openness fattto active citizenship. We'll see.
Below is a brief note that I presented programmatic all'assemblea.
La difficile e sempre più preoccupante situazione economica, politica, sociale del nostro Paese, avrebbe bisogno di forze politiche, all’opposizione dell’attuale Governo, capaci e determinate. Che riportino al centro dell’attenzione le reali esigenze delle persone, con un particolare sforzo per la fascia di popolazione più debole, quella che vede assottigliarsi i diritti nel lavoro e nel campo sociale, e che vanno ad accrescere la sempre più numerosa schiera dei nuovi poveri. Precarietà, Diritti, Qualità della vita: questi punti dovrebbero essere gli obiettivi dei Partiti, soprattutto di quelli rappresentati in Parlamento. Purtroppo But we see that it is not.
Even the Left can not do summaries on these topics, it is experiencing an identity crisis that has moved away from the people, who, struggling with serious problems, such as job loss or the fear of losing you completely disregards the political debate and is unable to understand the differences of the parties. The people who we work with are disappointed and disenchanted, and consider the unreliable political class, by expressing this discomfort with the abstention vote. The Left is now locked in endless and fruitless debates, more passionate than anyone, has completely lost CREDIBILITY '.
In this scenario there are faced with the renewal of the Provincial Coordination of Ancona. Coordination that will inevitably short-lived, transitional, preparatory and SEL designed the National Congress scheduled for October, in the context of which we must turn in order to make strategic and operational line that will arise by regional June 5, on the basis of items suggested: Plan of work, income social support to small businesses.
little over four months but should not be waiting, but should be used to pursue the path so far for the construction of the Left in Italy.
At this stage I believe that the territories, and therefore also from the province, should emerge with a strong thrust to our national leaders, who still seem to move with little dynamism and wait and see.
So I think it's important to focus on some priorities that we will strive to address, considering the values \u200b\u200band ideals, and especially the planned lines established by a vote of the National Assembly in December 2009 and the election program, expertly prepared, the recent regional elections.
• LABOUR POLICIES : the real emergency in Italy as in our Province and employment. The crisis of the industrial sectors has devastated the economy, leading to thousands of despair families, and forcing the closure many small to medium businesses choked by debts and a lack of orders. The use of layoffs has not completely alleviated the situation, not to mention all those workers of small businesses that do not even have the right, and who have no voice to express their discomfort. With the crisis of insecurity becomes the rule and the rights a mirage.
• SOCIAL POLICIES: the social question is another sore point, the deterioration caused by the crisis, highlights how inadequate the resources made available by local authorities and the Government. The loss of employment causes a "cascade" the inability of access to many basic services (school canteens, etc..) and often to pay bills, rent.
• ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES: the quality of life, the right to health, the refusal to the use of the land, are fully in the development model to which we aspire. The unsustainability of the neoliberal model needs a radical reversal of the trend, preferring such as renewable energy, fund research and dissemination, without abandoning anachronistic choices as future mega power plants, gas terminals, or even worse, nuclear power plants.
Political action for these focal points should be undertaken with a widespread involvement of members of Sel and its sympathizers and consistently supported by the elected institutions. We are often criticized the contradiction between the stated intentions in the programs and lack of administrative Acts consequential to them. The issues listed are not exhaustive, of course, sufficient to represent the complexity of the Company. The same issues underlie a number of reality: the future of youth, education, migration management, protection of the Constitution, the position of our country against the ongoing military conflict.
The distrust of citizens towards politics and therefore of our movement, Supert may be only a position of respect and listening. Participation and transparency must be the pillars of political action. The opening of active citizenship, movements, associations, must be experienced as an enrichment and exchange. The experience of the Nichi mills is an excellent practical and inspiring. In addition forms of cooperation already exist in the area facilitating dialogue between different views. Of these forms of participation SEL has a strong need in the knowledge that they must still develop a credible political process, organized and independent.
With the renewal of coordination arises the need to create groups thematic work to address issues with competence and readiness. The task of this coordination will be to undertake a renewed dialogue with the other forces of the center-left.
, it is essential to overcome internal divisions, bringing together all shades of opinion in order to concentrate all our energies to the roots of the new Left Party.
