«We celebrate the Bat province, which we are honored to serve and represent, every day with constant work serving the community. The statement from the centre-right councilors is unfounded and at times even infantile.” This is how the vice-president of the Bat province, Lorenzo Marchio Rossi, responded to the centre-right’s reply note.
«The attitude of the centre-right councilors who set themselves up as history teachers by showing us what the Bat province’s first steps were makes us smile – says Marchio Rossi –. We know the story very well and indeed, we advise colleagues to go and reread a passage that perhaps they have forgotten: among the signatories of the founding decree there are two centre-left parliamentarians such as Nicola Rossi and Giannicola Sinisi.
The contribution of our political party to the birth of this institution – continues Marchio Rossi – was fundamental, even if, it must be underlined, giving a political color to such an important passage in the history of our territory is a useless and at times cloying operation. Equally cloying – adds the vice president of Bat – is the accusation of “forgetfulness” leveled at president Bernardo Lodispoto.
As mayor of Margherita di Savoia – highlights Marchio Rossi – Lodispoto actively participated in the process of establishing the province, fighting for it to be established. Last Saturday, the president was not “at the seaside” as stated by the centre-right councillors, but was busy in Bisceglie commemorating Giacomo Matteotti, the socialist parliamentarian brutally killed by the fascists 100 years ago. Speaking of history, a good review on this issue too would be a good and right thing for centre-right councillors.
The advice I would like to give to my colleagues – concludes Marchio Rossi – is to avoid useless and sterile controversies by focusing instead on concrete issues of public utility. The community of our province needs actions and not futile and empty words.”
