«In spite of myself, I have taken note of the ongoing events. I don’t forget that I am a city councilor elected by many citizens who have placed their trust in me. I owe them answers for my political choices. Today no one thought it possible to make clear to me and my voters the news that should have led me to share the personal choice of the mayor, Simone Gargiulo».
Desio, Forza Italia takes a stand and asks the mayor for clarity: the words of Samuel Costanza
Samuel Costanza, group leader of Forza Italia, does not hide his disappointment for the ways in which Gargiulo joined Forza Italia, his party: «A similar choice – comments – it should have been supported by a political path made, necessarily, also by commitments and sharing of the local electoral program of Forza Italia. Therefore, no preclusions but to date I am not able to express any opinion other than the regret of not having been involved in the long process that led the Mayor to join Forza Italia».
Desio, Forza Italia takes a stand and asks the mayor for clarity: the words of Samuel Costanza
Forza Italia Desio still sits on the opposition benches today: «By choice of the mayor himself – Costanza is keen to point out – who still does not believe he has to deal with my electorate, considering supra-municipal political agreements sufficient». And he added: «When I am aware that the operation to regroup the center right in Desio is not only functional to the aspirations of the current mayor, I will be the first to congratulate him. Today I consider a diktat that does not take into account a complex political event like that of Desio to be unacceptable. I report some still current excerpts from the speech held during my first city council meeting: “In this process, our belonging to the centre-right will continue to be the guideline of our political choices and if you (the mayor) are able to direct your action to the you will find us in favor of the values and programs of a reformist and liberal centre-right“. It’s still: «I will evaluate the value of its administrative measures from time to time. If I am certain that the Mayor has not limited himself to switching to Forza Italia and will demonstrate that he is changing his political action, then there will be room for a true centre-right unified also in facts and not just on provincial maps»
