" The League for thirty years chasing federalism - Calderoli argued - and reasonably in a couple of months, the reform of fiscal federalism will have a picture. After thirty years of battle, and face two more months to bring home the result, the thrust of Bossi to go forward is a choice of common sense "(Il Corriere della Sera , 7:02:11).
What happened in the "bicameralina" with a draw from which they have lost all , and what happened later with the inadmissibility of the decree by the President of the Republic, has been a real " torment "for those who care about the fate of federalism. There has been much talk of a "base" in the League fibrillation, I myself have received notes of disappointment. The emotional, there were cases of government crisis gutted, disappointed expectations, misunderstandings of various kinds, and so on. In all this then, but not least, do not count for little embarrassed that, by the hour, they become increasingly bitter morsels ...
A bocce ferme, with the approval of the decree will be hours Rooms, perhaps line of perseverance, however, proved to be the best choice . Do not forget that everything starts from false premises: The opposition voted against the reform of municipal federalism, the same when Municipalities Association had given a positive opinion. The weight of "political" hip (as far as some mayors say the Democratic Party next guests of parliamentary seats) was not binding, but could not be ignored and also strongly undermined.
The political game has prevailed over the interests of the country : from that vote "15 to 15" has not lost his parliamentary majority, but Italy, and the responsibility for this delay in the path of reform has clearly defined the first and last names, refer to two clearly identifiable political spectrum: the left and that sort of "center."
Open a government crisis would have meant not only slow down further the path of reform, but also opening a window in the dark: what situation would emerge hypothetical vote? A league of course but perhaps the strongest opposition to Rome and then not be able to influence? It would have been born a "big government", so large as to include everyone and therefore incapable of a line and unified action?
In a race, the last meters are the most difficult: instead of throwing in the towel, shake your teeth and try to cross the finish line. In any case, the next day, the minister Calderoli make the required notification of the decision of the Oireachtas and that the Decree on Federalism will be municipal and state law-fledged force.
