Democratic Party (PD) chief Nicola
Zingaretti called Friday for the current Italian government to
"go home".
"If they can't handle it and all they do is fight all the
time, it is better that they go home and elections are held
again, letting Italians decide. We've had enough of hypocrisy
and playing around," the leader of the opposition centre-left
party wrote regarding tension with the government.
"The 'accomplices and allies' (Deputy Premiers Matteo)
Salvini and (Luigi) Di Maio fight over everything but refuse to
leave their positions. The cost of this paralysis is very
serious and Italians are paying the price.
"They are bringing in higher taxes, higher VAT, cuts to
social services, and they have isolated Italy in the world. They
have dragged the nation into a swamp."
He went on to say that Italy needs "work, investment,
infrastructure, incentives for businesses, a worthy foreign
policy, and wage increases. There is the need for a vision for
the future founded on environmental and social sustainability."
