INTERVIEW
ANPI to the Feast, the last partisan anger
“We do not accept vetoes by the Democratic Party”
Renato “Italian” Romagnoli, of the association until April: “Of now I only like the food festival ‘.
BOLOGNA – The strong character of the partisan, Renato “Italian” Romagnoli, 90 years in December, I wore well on vacation. “I was sleeping in a hotel of sisters, I escaped to the din. From dawn to evening always to pray, do not take it anymore, I threatened to sing Red Flag . ” Romagnoli has fought the bloodiest battles of the Resistance in Bologna, such as Porta Lame and Bolognina. And with the disappearance of Lino ‘William’ Michelini, he was the last partisan to the provincial leadership of the PNA (2014-2016). After him, for the first time the association has decided to award the presidency to Anne Cocchi, former mayor of Anzola.
At the referendum as a vote?
“No, like all the ANPI.”
And the ANPI has to go to the Unity Day?
“If you allow us to do the No campaign in our stand, then gladly. Otherwise, forget it. ”
And if they invite you to a debate talking about the referendum?
“Without the stand, there you go. It must be clear to all that the partisans do not accept the conditions of this kind, from anyone. Indeed, we will have to make public all the treatment reserved for us by the Democratic Party. ”
The Democratic Party claims that this is his reform, and if he does in his campaign for the Yes parties where can it?
“The point is this, the Unity Party – and I say that I have no more tiles but I took one of the PCI in ’42 – have always found people who thought differently. The Feast served this. The rest is dictatorship. So if you really want the ANPI, there must also be its stand where the association can express freely their opinion. The ANPI should be a prop for a party that claims to left. I do not think that it is more so. ”
And she will go to this year’s Unity Day?
“There are always gone, they eat so well.”
And enough?
“Now we only go for that. From the political point of view, in recent years it is very out of date. At one time there were so many friendly faces, not anymore. It happens when it comes out from its principles. Then this year, there’s our stand, I really just go for tortellini. ”
Why you do not like the reform?
“The changes start at big lies, they think of things, if you make other. Do you want to drop the charges? Halve the number of deputies and senators. And then the method used is a fascist, or so, or else I’m leaving. Unacceptable”.
The route, says Renzi, did not violate the rules.
“But yes, why it is not the government that the Constitution changes but the Parliament.”
But the House voted.
“Renzi has a majority, was missing as well that there was voting against. But I tell you something else: the debate was to be born in the Parliament, not anywhere else. ”
There are also some partisans for Yes, as Germano Nicolini, the “Devil Commander”. How do you feel?
“I did ten years in prison with him, I know him well, and I can say that very few understand politics.”
But it is not that one becomes less partisan if it supports the reform, right?
“No, his past is not questioned. The partisan is for what it was. But when I read these positions, I am very sorry. “
