“Is amnesty only good for immigrants?”. Piantedosi exposed the hypocrisy of the opposition

There is disagreement regarding the proposal amnesty relaunched by Fratelli d’Italia on the topic of construction. This is still just a maneuver amendment that reopens these provisions amnesty in 2003: we have to wait to see whether it will pass various technical and political checks and will be put to a vote in the Senate. But it was enough to explode the opposition controversy, with the Democratic Party taking the lead. “The Fratelli d’Italia tried to include another amnesty which was to wink at those who did not respect the rules by giving a blow to the shin from those who always respect the rules“, is an accusation Elly Schlein.

However, these words backfired on the Secretary of the Democratic Party, because the Minister of Home Affairs, Matteo Piantedosiunderlining how the positions of opposition parties are, as usual, opportunistic on political issues, and even selective. Because if on the one hand they complain about the building amnesty which is not new but is an amendment from 2003 which must be reintroduced, then on the other hand they are calling for an amnesty for the position of illegal migrants. “Are amnesties, amnesties, regularization only valid if they aim to achieve political goals? I don’t understand why a political party that is against amnesty and what the government wants to do is proposing an amnesty in this regard. irregularity in the residency status of immigrants?“, was the response of the Minister of the Interior to journalists on the sidelines of a security conference in Campania with candidate Edmondo Cirielli. We are sorry, he added, “that is, under certain conditions, organizing old procedures, resetting them, and starting over. I believe it is a reasonable course of action to allow the citizens of Campania to do something that the citizens of the other 19 Italian regions are permitted to do.“.

They have highlighted the discrimination highlighted in this particular aspect Maurizio GasparriForza Italia senator president, e Fulvio MartuscielloRegional Secretary of the Party, explained that “Forza Italia has repeatedly proposed a legislative solution in the past to the Campania Region’s failure to implement the 2003 amnesty.“. And Cirielli himself took things even further by underlining that “Here abuse Bassolino and left-wing groups did so when they did not allow the people of Campania to access the amnesty. We’re not the ones to say that, though Constitutional Courtstated that the action was illegal, invalid and an act of bullying“.

But on the other hand, the opposition continues to attack the action, accusing the center-right group of “exchange votes“, as stated by the Italian viva leader Matteo Renzi.
