Bravo Gianni! Saturday afternoon I took part in Oristano, the provincial assembly of the Democratic Party my party.
I decided, since the date of receipt of the invitation to participate, with the desire to hear the report of the Secretary on the health of the party and the ensuing debate. The
was certainly a lot of irons in the fire, the regional situation, through the primaries went wrong in Cagliari and Iglesias, the latest news of Olbia, the state of the art on the national level, and then get to what interests us most, the Pd and the province of Oristano. The afternoon began at once to
grande.Infatti just stepped into the room via a pleasant known Canepa particular, most of the attendees wear on the lapel of jackets and blazers, a fantastic tricolor cockade for the anniversary celebrations on Unity of Italy.
And I, I could not attend the previous meeting in Piazza Roma in defense of public schools and the Constitution and therefore I have not been able to pin the brooch, I almost feel like a fish out of water not to have that symbol of a rich extraordinary significance.
Then the assembly begins with the report by Gianni Sanna.
That is, a document very nice, thick, a congressional report, as mentioned by Robert Shema, an analysis 360 degrees on the state party, states, honest, serious, of prospettiva.Mi are fully recognized and I also shared in the commas! The
and broader debate that was obviously raised the height of the report.
Congratulations John, I think there is absolute need of such moments, to share together. The party
there is vivo.Deve grow, yes, but I have no doubt that, in light of the appointment on Saturday, this will happen.
walk together, united.
Ours is a party perspective, even in Oristano.
The meeting on Saturday, I'm sure, is a great food for the journey!
Following the public Report of the Provincial Secretary, Gianni Sanna.
"Constitution Unit PD.Il and our commitment to help create the conditions for a future city and territory."
Good evening to all.
We are here on a Saturday evening, the day that many squares in Italy dedicated to the Constitution and to public school.
Even we, in Rome square, at the initiative of the Circle of Orissa, there was a short Flash / Mob from 15.30 to 16.20. An event
heard, not to miss the appointment. Because we believe in public schools and because the Constitution belongs to us.
Because the Constitution is apparently only a piece of paper ", while the state has the material means to act otherwise than it prescribes.
And then where is his strength? How can the principles stated in the Constitution are effectively applied?
You see there is indeed a fundamental contrast between the world of law and world politics.
The first lays down how things should be in accordance with the rules (above all those of the Constitution that are placed above all others), the second determines how things are based on the balance of power between the social partners those policies. ...
And see, beyond the mechanisms introduced by the various jurisdictions to determine the primacy of the former over the latter, it is always possible that the constitutional order is overwhelmed by the new power relationships that are created through social relations and conflicts.
Yet constitutions are not purely and simply "pieces of paper."
lay down principles that reflect actual relations of power that have historically occurred between the groups, those political and cultural currents that are the subject of supporting a new political regime.
have a pact concluded between the dominant political forces.
Here is ultimately the strength of each establishment. Groups that have endorsed the constitutional pact have a specific interest in and respect expect others to do the same, because otherwise the social and political balance may rupture with serious consequences for all.
Because the Constitution is actually respected it is therefore necessary that this initial condition is maintained and continuously renewed.
And despite the existence of differences too harsh, stays alive by all the most important forces, the willingness to accept some common rules.
why we were now in place. For more on the anniversary, at least locally, the celebrations for the 150th anniversary of Italy sponsored by the Prefect.
"The Constitution can still give so much to the country and this does not mean it is untouchable. " "The Italian Constitution is the result of exemplary experience high trade policies of the major cultures of the country. Any changes must not distorting the fundamental system defined in the first part first. "
I read this morning that with these last words was made at the document adopted at 46 weeks of Catholics in society and therefore of the CEI.
With a final solicitation, which I personally agree, addressed to political parties, and then challenges us.
"We need a law, consistent with the remedies that should be made to the electoral law and form of government, governing some crucial aspects of the life of the parties, include publication of budget and clear rules of internal democracy. "
Advertising and democracy in the parties. If we are correct that the interconnection between elected and elector does not break and at the same time we strengthen degeneration that we see daily represented no shame at all levels. In short, the 49 contains a principle of our Constitution is still not applied fully.
*** Sorry for this brief digression, but the thought was important, especially for us Democrats. Because those basic principles embodied in the Constitution are the horizon of meaning, the value system, I would say the glue that holds together our political force. Why in the Constitution and our traditions are set that synthesis exceeds that. That reform, which is the basis of the second paragraph of art. 3, which gave us life and that was summed up so effectively at the Lingotto in 2007 at the time of our birth.
The PD is there and can not be anything else. As it is in article 2 and recognition of fundamental human rights. Those individual and social, whose recognition and protection of which we can not delegate to anyone.
I remember him always to myself never to forget that this policy helps to understand and at the same time guide the direction of our positions. The positions of Pd in \u200b\u200bthe last eighteen months.
There are these values \u200b\u200bbehind the two proposals launched by the Democratic Party in the Piazza San Giovanni.
First, a reform to strengthen the Republican Constitution, modernizing institutions and rules.
The second: a partnership for growth and employment.
A reform of the institutions and rules first, to rebuild.
simplifying and making efficient the Parliament and form of government, reducing the number of Parliamentarians, by making a serious electoral law, devised by a federal responsibility and to join, bringing the cost of each policy to the European average (if that would help locally, where govern, we gave clear signs in this sense), simplifying procedures, putting a screwdriver - as Bersani - in the operation of all sectors of government, defining the incompatibilities and conflicts of interest, erasing monopolies and dominant positions starting from information by creating common standards, starting with those financial, to flush out the illegal and criminal organizations. taking care of rights, Article 3 of our Constitution, laws that support equality and recognize the differences starting with the role of women in leadership roles, laws that combat homophobia, which ensure dignity in illness, which prevents the immigration mess falls on the weakest part of our population and finally to say that a child born here and son of immigrants: you're one of us, you're an Italian.
The new citizenship and new rights, or simply the rights for which we turn now to the Selma Forum. Because it is our identity. For he who speaks of citizenship compared with that word the politician's Democratic
***
The second alliance for growth and for the work, and that is a pact between institutions, labor, business, subject knowledge and subsidiarity . Where in that covenant there is a reinterpretation of our welfare services from the subject and the condition of the family crushed by falling incomes, non-self-sufficiency, the new youth unemployment.
I was talking with one of our young officer the other night: prepared, academically excellent graduate, now a master in his pocket, which is seen to offer after all curriculum presented, only one place in a call center of a bank or a contract to procure insurance at home ..
***
on these proposals the Democratic Party has launched the challenge. On these proposals is committed to building an alternative proposal.
During sunset Berlusconi. That will be a twilight that will create dramatic tension on the political and institutional. Berlusconi defends with all the energy to survive and end-of-the democratic reconstruction will require a competition of forces. Not enough and not enough the entire span of the center-left. If you do not
to govern (this issue is objectively open and its solution will depend on when elections will be held and the level of institutional struggle that will lead us Berlusconi), at least to start, to renew that covenant on some common rules that do not touch and which apply to all.
I sincerely agree with that holding, determination and design are the three key words on which you have to hold our camp next year. Tenuta because Berlusconi will try to stand and we shall have more grit than he, because polls show that determination is losing its grip on public opinion and the opposition to improve its ability to talk to citizens, because the project is still going to vote before the expiry of the term and in any case May there are administrative. And also our common concern and on which we are operating.
***
course, faced with this complexity we need a party that knows how to find each other. Where its pluralistic character is a resource and can never be an excuse to protect and boost internal differences, the marks of origin, perhaps to guard jealously and pass only resist. This applies at all levels. It concerns the national dimension but also relates to our regional experience and local levels. The party goes to a regional weaning and at the provincial level has just celebrated its first birthday.
Perhaps some consideration is a must and any evaluation is needed. It can help in the journey ahead.
seems to me that the regional plan would not hurt to follow up the findings in the latest Regional Office in Oristano. Put an end to congressional placements of fifteen months ago, the dualism majority and minority, in this endless game of chess that is played by ourselves. That does not take us anywhere and that takes away from our discussions now not only our constituents but also most of the members and a growing number of these managers. However this is no longer as a year ago. And then the experience of membership in a party you do not live like a local council, with the positions of majority and minority are crystallized for five years, with at most a few small landslides - now here now there - only for reasons of convenience. In a project started is one, not two or three, all opposed. Even in a plural party like ours.
I think it is essential that at the regional level, and where in the territories has not yet happened, it you get to share in the conduct of the party. Of course, never sacrificing the debate even close, when necessary through extensive consultation with our members, and then ends at the end of the proposal and support it with conviction. In short, an assumption of responsibility of all countries is not very postponed. Silvio Lai has evoked. Now we need to give it legs. It would be useful to a certain timeliness. Moreover
not now that I think the Aventine are unsustainable if we are in fact that this party does not turn quickly into a faded copy of the seasons decadent that preceded the birth. And then in the long run the Aventine produces effects opposite to those desired: dispersed elsewhere our consent and commitment (after the primaries in Cagliari also teach us that) and in reinforcing, rather than reduce, the less willing to change positions.
The PD can not be in the history of Sardinia Ds seamless: no doubt. Neither the former Margaret anyone have contracted the banner of Catholicism in this democratic experience. The Democratic Party is or should be different.
Silvio must quickly close the post-season conference and its subsequent divisions.
must open a new one in which to test his leadership within the party and the party in the territories. How? I am struggling to find the location. But I think the balance can never be found pleasing the "special": there is a risk of a tilt from the system. Do not forget that in many areas some of our "joint" procedure, the name is so and not souls or cultural traditions of modesty and respect of the latter, are so ingrained as to constitute the system, with the virtues and defects that long familiarity with power means: in some cases, one with the institutional system. Perhaps the balance should be on another level, on a high floor, less contingent, and therefore unstable.
Maybe starting with a project that passes through an autonomous federated organization than the party's national cheese and not only to a decentralized organization as evidenced by the regional statute sadly not yet been finally approved, some sound rule that accompany us on this path ensures that all favors and finally the emergence of a ruling class only democracy without adjectives, some proposals that bravely declines by our idea of \u200b\u200bregion in a pattern that markedly enhances its ability to self-determined their future. Knowing that behind this project is not a tabula rasa, that there is a courageous journey that we have already done, which delivers results and also some errors. Of enthusiasm and many disappointments.
And that his view is Sardinia in 2020.
Looking forward and not backwards nostalgically at last. Because history never repeats the same.
*** And then there's our local experience, the province. Our efforts, our difficulties. Our unity and our weaknesses.
If I were to express an opinion after one year of activity, I would just say that we have only part of the trail, soccer, in some passages, paths, at least at the beginning turned out to be a bit 'Difficult. Action should be taken even habits. It was not easy. •
were not consistent with schema majority / minority that has marked the regional experience of the party at least until yesterday, and it sometimes has also created "personal problems" to the Provincial Secretary, called the regional dimension to deal with decision-making mechanisms completely different from those charged locally
•
we made an agreement that tried to mix single membership, stories, or simply feeling, without ever recognizing in them the right to exist as the organizational choices in times (one of my own, your own): all necessary, no one factor; • We have meticulously avoided
fireplaces: The Secretariat has assumed its responsibilities and its members have succeeded in most cases to share the experience without ever feeling the guardians of anyone. Members then took the bodies of the decision;
• We have tried to put on a territorial organization, which exists in part only on paper and that the membership in 2010, with Operation Truth, has laid bare (about 300 cards in less than about 1400 Members of the year 2008/2009 and over 300 new members)
• We promoted the creation of new clubs, accompanying the process without force and promote collaboration, even in the choice of institutional representatives with some successes and some mediocre result
•
we have promoted opportunities for reflection in the area and in town for reaccustom members and voters to participate and the fatigue of useful debate. The planning conference before traveling provincial forums, flash / mob, a thousand squares. On average per month initiative. At two in the first planning conference have recorded modest presence, then gradually great turnout, especially the initiatives of the forum. •
we tidied up the few available resources in a transparent manner that will be subsequently illustrated by Valerio.
These are some of our efforts.
course this year we have come to terms with our weaknesses, correcting some gradually trying to build pathways that can overcome other.
We tried to avoid the solos. Publicly, the positions were almost always tuned, overcoming the gap of a party of a thousand voices, the protagonist of the individual.
aware that the credibility also depends on the perception of citizens and representatives from the political and social structures of a common design that belongs to us
We tried not to miss on any of the big issues with our point of view, always reasoned, documented, shared internally. E 'success on the desertification of the interior of our common, it happened on school reorganization plan, the 162, on the future of hospitals and Ghilarza Bosa, the environment and renewable energy, photovoltaics, information on milk quotas, on Fenosu.
We may not have yelled. But our position was firm but free of demagoguery in the knowledge that we are today and tomorrow we want to be in opposition to the government.
We have urged the positions in the institutions more representative, by coming to terms with large majorities, but the center-right at issue, since the beginning of their business in trouble and are deprived even of the 'enthusiasm of the newcomers.
We put on a conference of our administrators to relate to the issues on time of our communities and to be able to build a network system that would allow those who are struggling daily with sometimes insurmountable problems have solutions experienced by other virtuous and to make both more timely and in a pragmatic sense, our proposal to government .
circles are also directors and actors the coming weeks of local initiatives, which run on a joint zonal more or less coinciding with the Union of Municipalities.
Groups Board of County and City, in the second half of 2010 is coordinated strategic decisions are the responsibility of two entities. Finally the story of the airport. On which perhaps relate some of my colleagues.
course coordination may not involve only us, the groups board of the Democratic Party, should also concern us and the other forces to play the role of the minority.
The issue has particular connotations in town, since in addition to the center also supports this feature and force the UDC Paris.
I think it's time to see if the experience of city government than there is in addition to a common negative opinion on this administrative experience can also develop a joint proposal for the possible future of Oristano. Or if he believes that the recent combination that has led the center- compact to the reconquest of the province, and later to his immediate divisions and the difficulty of implementing successful acts of government, is the price that the city of Oristano is going to pay again for another five years for a gap of courage to initiate a 'action for change.
said that we register that it is this majority is proposing dramatized indeed incomprehensible. Indeed not only the City but also in the province of Oristano.
look aghast at the City Mayor PDL and playing a dangerous game for the City, dueling for balances within the same majority. Both equally responsible of the vacuum design of this Administration. And the condition prevailing in Orissa. Why is that the avoidance of doubt and without distinction: on the one hand are the responsibility of a mayor and a lack dimistichezza with its institutional role, the other is just the PDL and its heavy administrative responsibilities with five out of eight councilors in strategic sectors of the administration, with the president of the Municipal Council, under the presidency of the fifty percent of board committees.
Citizens expect that they govern, so that is why they have voted. And are entitled to expect. And we with them.
And what they have done, sooner or later judge them. This time hopefully without forgetting.
On Oristano
must prepare now. Picture this by putting pen to paper and now a back of the list that will sustain it. A project to aggregate the consent of a civil society and perhaps angry resignation, but that perhaps is not ready to stand before the television and if a proposal to come out a convincing and credible political class aims to its attention. By building an alliance, but not arising from an alliance. To deny even the behaviors that we are all equal. Al Pd
of my city council colleagues in the group I could ask to live divaricante the situation in the majority that rules the town of Oristano complaint but did not give up the great sense of responsibility required of those who exercise public functions. To do so with great intelligence. Without losing sight of the interests of the community, who also gave us only the role of minority and do not cross the government. Share when possible, to stand up when needed. Always check as it is our duty. Did not join the PDL ever for small vessels, devoid of any political perspective. Not to facilitate any of our opponents the way of your responsibilities. Of forming relationships and practice behaviors that enhance our credibility and authority.
Because this is the way to overcome our political weakness in this area, our late elections, the gap in left-center. There are other roads at the cost of pass-sighted.
And let me finally, speaking of our weaknesses, a brief mention on the output from the Democratic Party di Peppino Marras, its public statements and a service of the Sarda about it. Without a reflection of the fact overstated be made, only to report the incident in the right size.
I'm sorry, let me tell you as a democrat and as Secretary of the Democratic Party. I shared with him the experience in DC, and the Popular Democratic Party.
If he goes, he told us calling the API, the formation of Rutelli. One of those little boxes remained empty, which he said were filled. Let the center and should be in the so-called Third Pole.
I've already said that I had felt for quite some time, the smell. Even for a chat made less than a month ago and whose contents I had darkened.
I take note, I thought about it, think seriously. Because behind every action there is always a reason.
And even when it happens like this you absolutely can not for arguments, method and timing.
said it wanted to return to the center in his public statement. I struggle to comprehend what it means since the pd is not an extremist party and Peppino group leader and was the main protagonist of the Democratic Party line in the City Council in Oristano and for this reason that eight months ago there was always the candidate with the PD in the Provincial Council.
And then an empty box, as he said, was never a political space.
At best, to quote a friend, may be the place for non-choices, a place without too many rules or controls so you never have to account to anyone.
Parties are not prisons. Anyway.
It can happen for many reasons that an elected Parliament, a Regional Council, a Provincial or Municipal Council at some point change the party. After two years, after four or only after a few months after his election.
Good faith and the choices each one must nevertheless be respected.
But along with the choices each must also be respected by all those involved who have chosen the right to vote the person elected by voting that symbol, or turning the concept: they chose that symbol and have it voted to elect.
Certainly when you jump you can not return the vote, even when it would take at least to silence those who gave it to you, but you can return the seat.
To respect, you have the right to claim their choices, and then what is owed to the choices of all.
conclusion, I mean A year ago my election unit has gone through a mix of old procedures but also new ways that have allowed to probe first clubs in the level of appreciation of the proposal. A
idea I tried to remain faithful, even when I felt the distinction at the appointment of the presidential candidate of the Province, I have also recently been criticized in the local press.
unit inclusion will remain a cornerstone of my commitment to members and voters knowing that in order for it to be true and not merely a gilded cage, will always represent a later stage than the internal debate and discussion.
And then you decide and that decision is a commitment and for all. We
marginalized anyone. It 's too fresh a memory to know what it means to be. Today than in January last year there is a skeleton town, but I would renew the invitation a year ago, we have made "available" to all the resources of each so that they can become friends and comrades of all.
In the area the party is built that way. There are other roads. And not just the Provincial Secretary and the Executive Team.
A party that knows how to create relations, combining the territories, which holds together the cities and small towns, that keeps us connected, generations who invites a comparison.
Why, however, there must be a time for everyone.
A single project that the idea of \u200b\u200ba community of people working towards the same goal.
And what we now claim not only for us but for the entire Democratic party in Sardinia.
will be a challenging year and the road will be bumpy .. If we fix something let's do it now, because in a month we will not have time to talk to us, to introspective analysis as we challenge the city and the territory.
Our unit so far helped us along the road taken and to collect some results, reflecting the less possible difficulties that did not depend solely on us.
would not have been possible otherwise achieve the goals we set ourselves, to promote the initiatives we have launched, begin to affect the perception people have of us.
That design then I hope it will still represent the encouragement for promoting the Democratic Party finally force the government of this territory.
