“My leadership of the 5 Star Movement is based on the profound sharing of principles and values. And a political bond rather than a legal one does not depend on stamped papers”. At the end of a very tense day, Giuseppe Conte entrusts his position with regard to the provision of the Court of Naples which suspends his election as president of the M5S, a declaration of very few words.
And then: “There is a political-substantial and a juridical-formal plan, which marks this suspension. Suspension to which we respond with a bath of democracy. Amendments to the statute were already planned, a ratification by all the members, even those for less than six months, without waiting for the timing of a trial. Curious that he had always voted like this, with the old statute, and now this thing is prevented “: so in the evening the former premier, guest of Lilli Gruber at “Otto e mezzo” on La7.
On the conflict with the foreign minister, he says: “Before Di Maio went to the streets to support our civil battles, today to exhibit a current and attack the leadership. In the letter of resignation he wrote several good intentions to fuel the debate and ideas. . I heard him on the phone and he told me that he is eager to express ideas and projects. It is true, there has been a difficult transition but the interest of the Movement always comes before people. It is not within the horizon of things. that Di Maio is expelled but it is obvious that he – who is the former leader – has more responsibilities. A true leadership is never afraid of confrontation on ideas but in the face of such a plastic attack, on television, it is impossible pretend nothing has happened “. Crimi: “Much Ado About Nothing”
“The leader and Giuseppe Conte, our community spoke clearly. They are, as always, at the service of the M5S and available for the necessary bureaucratic formalities of these days, which on the basis of the order of the Court of Naples, will lead us to vote again the Statute “. This was stated to Affaritaliani.it by the senator of the M5S Vito Crimi after the provision of the court of Naples. “I read many inaccuracies around: the only exception that the judge accepted – emphasizes Crimi – is that relating to the voting of members for less than 6 months. But someone really thinks that the result would have changed if the new members had also voted
. Much ado about nothing. Certainly not stamped papers will stop a desire for renewal of the 5 Star Movement “. The story
The Court of Naples today suspended the two resolutions that had allowed the modification of the statute of the movement and the election of the new president Giuseppe Conte.
The court, chaired by judge Gian Piero Scoppa, as stated in the device, suspended “the resolutions challenged by the 5-star movement Association, of 3 August 2021, to amend the statute, and of 5 August 2021, to appoint the president” . The measures were suspended as a precaution due to the existence of “serious defects in the decision-making process”, mainly due to the exclusion from the vote of more than one third of the members and the consequent failure to reach the quorum. The appeal filed in October 2021 was presented by a group of activists of the M5s, defended by the lawyer Lorenzo Borre.
“The Movement is beheaded, with no man in charge. The only thing they can do now is Beppe Grillo: call the voting of the M5S steering committee, as he did last June 29. And start again from there. Only after having once the new steering committee has been voted, the new members of the guarantee committee, the arbitrators, etc. can be elected. Any other decision can be easily challenged. In short, the word to the pentastellato people “. This was confirmed by the lawyer Lorenzo Borre, the lawyer who supported the appeal of three militants, Steven Hutchinson, Renato Delle Donne and Liliana Coppola, representing several hundred members who participated in the payment of legal fees with a fundraiser .
“Today the Court of Naples, accepting the complaint for the suspension of the effectiveness of the resolutions that modified the statute and crowned Giuseppe Conte as the sole candidate for the presidency of the M5S, restores the principle of the need for the participation of all members in the adoption of fundamental choices of our Movement “. This was stated by the activists behind the appeal.
“Equal rights is a cornerstone of the M5S and cannot find an exception in any case, much less for access to statutory offices as there are no first peers. Now we trust in an open participatory process and in a reflection on errors and on the forcing made, whoever made a mistake must step aside. We thank the lawyer Lorenzo Borre for the assistance he gave us from the first moment “, conclude the Neapolitan applicants representing the hundreds of members who supported the appeals.
