“The majority councilors do not show up in sufficient numbers to guarantee the conduct of the municipal councils and the mayor complains to the city that he cannot govern due to the opposition. This is the delirium we witness at Palazzo di Città. The reality, however, is that after being saved by a miracle on the evening of the collection of signatures from the notary, the municipal administration of Taranto continues to be tired and without vision. The mayor is absent, the councilors seem to be extras without decision-making power, and the majority councilors seem anything but a team. The council majority that supports the mayor lives hand to mouth, devoid of political identity and common vision.” Giampaolo Vietri and Tiziana Toscano of the FdI council group at the Municipality of Taranto wrote this in a note.
“Mayor Melucci perhaps thinks he can manage a provincial capital like Taranto, with all its problems, based only on the distribution of political and administrative positions, more concerned with himself than with the citizens. Continuously looking for the numbers for a new majority without a project will only serve to prolong the agony that the city experiences due to this municipal administration, ”he adds.
“The mayor and his supporters, instead of rebuking the opposition, should ask themselves whether the people of Taranto, especially those who voted for them, still feel represented by this administration. A non-existent majority distant from the population would do well to take a step back and put an end to this experience, allowing Taranto to move on. Even the recognition of a failure can be useful for a constructive debate on the future of the city and would certainly be more appreciated than the presumption with which we remain glued to our seats without producing anything useful for the citizens, looking down on the legitimate protests of the citizens. citizens”, they highlight.
“Now, in the wake of the national wave in favor of the centre-right, it is necessary to concentrate and work to offer an alternative city government that restores hope and trust to all those who love Taranto”, conclude Vietri and Toscano.
