(see related) Nichi Vendola, the
leader of the Left, Ecology and Freedom (SEL) party, on
Wednesday called for the establishment of a new government
coalition after 5-Star Movement (M5S) leader Beppe Grillo said
he was ready to talk to the executive about RAI reform and
proposals for a basic income. "Do we want the RAI to belong to
the citizens and not to the parties or the government?," Vendola
said via Twitter. "Do we want a minimum income, like in the rest
of Europe, as a response to poverty? In parliament a (different)
majority is possible. Let's form it. Now". SEL and the M5S are
currently opposed to Premier Matteo Renzi's executive, which is
supported by a coalition led by the premier's centre-left
Democratic Party (PD) and backed by several centrist groups.
