Carlo Calenda’s Action loses pieces, in Sicily it is Peppe Castiglione who says goodbye to the party that brought him back to parliament in 2022.
Castiglione returns home, rejoins Forza Italia. The political differences with Calenda marked a distance, in particular the position of accusations and intransigence towards Totò Cuffaro put an end to this brief experience, even though Castiglione was never an ally with Cuffaro.
But there’s more, it’s about the political perspective, because, even if we want to go around the issue, the small parties now have difficulty even guaranteeing internal elected representatives, let alone being attractive.
The European elections will then mark a further rebalancing of the political forces, the more structured parties will grow, the blue leadership of Antonio Tajani is solid and the death of Silvio Berlusconi has not put the party into liquidation.
In Sicily he continues to gain support, there is movement around the party with new entries and other returns.
