The tricolor and the inconsistency of the Mayor Cari amici,
nell'ultimo consiglio comunale, si è discussa sulla mozione presentata dal consigliere Nicola Pomella con la quale si chiedeva di impegnare l'Amministrazione to promote and encourage public and private bodies to display the Italian flag in their offices or their homes.
E 'enough this topic, where he expected a unanimous vote, where even the approval was granted, to make the improbable happen.
The majority was split. Some of them suggested that it would be better a recommendation and not a motion. Others also asked the exposure of the flag of Piedmont. The leader
Vella, Lega Nord, has even accused the center left of the flag to use the event for political purposes. I could not believe my ears. But how do you say that the proposal to display our flag is a work of manipulation? The Our flag is the cradle of our history and our culture. And 'the symbol of our Nation. How do you say such a thing?
I have made it clear that it is unacceptable to say similar words. These are the words of one who does not share the values \u200b\u200bof Unity of Italy. This division is bad history and our country.
E 'intolerable that some members of the League and the PDL said in city council. They tried to hide their perennial divisions over issues that should be the heritage of the whole political class.
Even myself took over the division that exists between the League and the PDL between the parent and the League, Vella and the Mayor on the same point, since the latter è promotore di iniziative sulla bandiera italiana, mentre il consigliere Vella no.
Ho anche apprezzato pubblicamente l'entusiamo del sindaco Ferrari per le manifestazioni che sta facendo per dare omaggio all'Unità di Italia ed al tricolore e nonostante questo sono stato attaccato dal primo cittadino solo perchè ho evidenziato quello che era palese a tutti: la bandiera italiana non è patrimonio del centro destra.
Alla fine la mozione di Pomella è passata con l'emendamento con cui l'Amministrazione invitava, quindi non promuoveva e non sollecitava, l'esposizione del tricolore nella nostra città. Si sono astenuti solo i consiglieri della Lega, Sindaco compreso.
Comunque a parte le parole, la realtà è ben diversa. Officially, the mayor will not invite the citizens to display the Italian flag, but in fact the Mayor will hold an interesting event March 12 to create a human flag in green, white and red. He is working on this project even before the discussion of the motion. Do not tell me that it does to execute the will of the council. I do not miss the appointment. Thank you for Ferrari again and I appreciate what he does. But did not give a good test of consistency! This is the truth!
