Alternative majorities? My party? Fantasies. Word of Conte (25 July 2019)
How and how much Conte in these hours is denying the promises guaranteed in the past. Facts, names, dates and details
“That I can go to Parliament to look for alternative majorities or that I even want to start my own party is pure fantasy. We don't make the worst First Republic arguments. Let's restore its nobility, its noble vocation to politics. We fly high ".
Thus on 25 July 2019 the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, at the head of an M5S-Lega government tweeted:

A few weeks later, Conte becomes – on 5 September 2019 – president of the Council of an executive formed by a different parliamentary majority: Pd, Leu and Italia Viva in place of the Lega.
After having realized the first of the two denied fantasies – that is a different government majority – in these hours the second fantasy is being denied: that is the birth of a political movement that refers to him, as hoped for example today by Bruno Tabacci, leader of the Democratic Center, which is working hard for the birth of a new government majority, always with Conte as premier who can do without Italia Viva.
“Conte needs to announce that he will be at the head of a political movement at the next elections,” said Tabacci during the program L'Aria che Tira su La7. While in Corriere della Sera he added : “We need a centrist container in the center-left area. Popular, pro-European, able to intercept even the vote of the moderates. It is a move to convince even those who suffer in Forza Italia and the UDC ”.
EXCERPT FROM A FANPAGE ARTICLE FROM 25 JULY 2019:
The Prime Minister on 25 July 2019 commented with the press, the meeting between his two deputies, Matteo Salvini and Luigi Di Maio, an interview that Giuseppe Conte defines as "good and right". To journalists who ask for a reply regarding the words of the Northern League leader, according to which the head of government is looking for an alternative majority in Parliament, he replies: "May I go to Parliament to seek an alternative majority, when it is clear that I am in Parliament I go there for transparency towards citizens and respect for institutions, it is pure fantasy ”. Conte therefore defines in the same way also the hypothesis for which he would like to found a new party. “I invite you journalists who have to fill the pages. We do not make the worst arguments of the first Republic. Let's restore its nobility and noble vocation to politics. We fly high ”, Conte concludes.
