The electoral program of the center-right for the elections of 25 September. The full document
The center-right program for the September 25 elections is ready.
The document, divided into 15 points, was signed today by the three leaders of Fratelli d0Italia, Lega and Forza Italia: Giorgia Meloni, Matteo Salvini and Silvio Berlusconi
A program in which Italy's loyalty to the European Union, the Atlantic Pact and the West was stressed.
In the program it is recalled that it is committed to "respecting the commitments undertaken in the Atlantic Alliance", in particular in support of Ukraine.
Furthermore, the adherence to European commitments is reaffirmed, but also the request for a "revision of the Stability Pact".
The center-right assures that the reforms envisaged for the NRP will be completed, but work will be carried out for a revision of the same Plan “according to the changed conditions, needs and priorities”.
As for the constitutional reforms, "the direct election of the President of the Republic", the workhorse of the Brothers of Italy will be accompanied by the completion of the justice reform, wanted by Forza Italia, and by the completion of the path on autonomy, as well as especially requested by the League.
The "reduction of the tax burden" is another strong point of the center-right program that encompasses all the proposals of the three main parties, including the flat tax.
It will begin with an extension "for VAT numbers up to 100,000 euros in turnover" and the flat tax on an increase in income compared to previous years, as the Melonians would like, but a "further expansion for families and businesses" is hoped for.
On the subject of work, the center-right insists on cutting the tax wedge, tax relief for new hires and lowering the VAT for basic necessities.
Among the various proposals is the raising of limits on the use of cash and a strong incentive for vouchers. Furthermore, the “replacement of the current citizenship income with more effective measures of social inclusion and active policies for training and integration into the world of work” is confirmed.
Support for the destitute or for those who cannot work remains, but the mechanism will have radically changed. Salvini's "Security Decrees" and "border control and blocking of landings are back to stop, in agreement with the North African authorities, the trafficking of human beings"
