Reconfirmation as Mayor of Potenza Mario Guarente decided in Rome by the national leaders of the centre-right parties has created discontent in the party that supports the current Mayor.
In protest, many of its members left the city council chamber, causing the quorum to disappear.
The opposition councilors condemned what happened in a note Bianca Andretta, Angela Blasi, Angela Fuggetta, Vincenzo Telesca, Enzo Stella Brienza, Michele Beneventi, Roberto Falotico, Pierluigi Smaldone Marco Falconeri, Rocco Pergola, Franco Flore, Giuseppe Biscaglia, Valerio Tramutoli, Francesco Giuzio.
“In line with the entire council, – they say – this City Council has also failed. The centre-right majority intended to protest against the re-nomination decided in Rome by the Northern League Mayor Guarente, resulting in the lack of a quorum at the last real city council and with it all the measures useful to the citizens. By putting political feuds before institutional commitment.
Having forgotten the celebrations for Potenza 2024 Italian City of Youth, today - continue the councilors who signed the note - they decided not to vote on the regulation on the Youth Forum which is essential for the functioning of the body.
Just as, after much work by the Fourth Commission, the Regulation against gambling will not see the light of day. A choice that throws away months and months of work in commissions.
An infinite shame, a worthy epilogue to the worst administration ever of the capital city."
