Left Critique will be local elections of 6 7th June in the main cities involved in the provincial and dozens of municipalities large and small. A presence that is meant to represent a further step in building our movement, but trying to look carefully to experience unit for re-construction of a wider anti-capitalist left. Was this the rest is our hope and our propensity for the European elections, where instead we see that historians of the Italian left two vices - the reformist one hand and sectarian self-centering of the other - are producing further dissipation of energy and political perspective.
E 'for this reason that we fully experience the Free City of Bologna and free land in the municipal and provincial capital of Emilia. Or why we have worked with a coalition to withstand the test of municipal Livorno.
SUPPORT FOR THIS LIST IN FLORENCE DE Zord .
Where a single project could not be present lists of Sinistra Critica. It 's the case of Turin, Milan, Naples, Bari, to name only the most large but is also the case of Rimini, Terni, Perugia, Livorno Province, Rieti. A widespread presence, therefore, although not yet complete.
this Administration will try to bring the profile that has characterized us since our existence: un'alternatività clear the Democratic Party is that in round 1 to 2 degrees, lists the expression of social reality, made up of young workers, migrants, members environmental or feminist struggles or the LGBT movement, lists possible unit, where sectarianism and self-preservation does not win, and still open, available to a process of re-construction of the left.
Rebuilding the Left and anti-capitalist class, moreover, is the urgency of new political phase. An old stage was closed, some left has failed and can not be born again by repeating the same mistakes. The road is long for this political perspective, do not hide, and a new left can only rebuild option in a genuinely anti-capitalist, that he does not discount the logic of capitalism and its governance, from local governments.
why we have denounced the opportunism of those lists of the left "radical" that stand out from the Democratic Party over the last 15 days the legislature and try to forget about the responsibilities of government, as in Milan.
1. An anti-capitalist program to a provincial program that puts the centered on the question of work, the economic crisis and the need to pay for the crisis itself to those who have never paid. For this you will need and correct to speak of our popular law on inter-category minimum wage of 1300 € a month and a minimum wage with social security to 1000 €, which is being debated in the Senate.
2. attention should be paid for the Prohibition of lay-offs by companies and to proceed to nationalize and control the public by the workers themselves, those who fired.
3. from the provinces and municipalities can also be an initiative that focuses on public service, both for social services - schools, health, transport - both to support the income of the unemployed and young people starting from general temporary stabilization of public contracts, but with payment of money and free public services.
4. To set a clear break in the economic and social policies local authorities should not conflict with any means compliance with the European Stability Pact, a real straitjacket and lintel of liberal policies and privatization that produces drastic reductions of social services. The law on fiscal federalism, in fact approved by the whole constitution, is adding to this instrument is introducing neo-liberal logic of the fittest at the expense of weaker is relentlessly engaging the financial resources of municipalities, provinces and regions to the overall balance defined by the European Central Bank and European governments.
5. by governments follow policies of privatization of transportation and building new roads and highways. We must reverse this agenda, and provide for a moratorium on the construction of highways and infrastructure development of public transport.
No need to mega-projects, but a rationalization of the existing and forecast preferential routes for public transport and bicycle mobility.
6. Earthquake The Eagle has shown that disruption and neglect in land management is the first national emergency. The logic of profit and wild speculation causes disasters and fatalities, a brutal logic that must be broken. Land management in key real "protection" and civil society is a priority to invest public money and involve democratically the people concerned. The rehabilitation projects should be made payable to the speculation, and who has become rich with real estate. To this must be re-introduced the Ici above certain levels of income (50 thousand euro per year), launched a charge sheet to be devoted to the preservation of the territory not only by earthquakes but by landslides, floods, coastal erosion, devastation environment.
7. Environmental protection and means to oppose the destruction of the territories that produce new incinerators, landfills guaranteed by the illegal armies, the power of mass production of energy, such as gas turbines in April or the platform to the LNG terminal at Livorno.
plants built in the name of supposed progress, but in fact devoted to speculation, rather than private profit and should be activated by differentiation of political garbage, hazardous waste reduction, reorganization of production towards social and environmental needs. For this is not an abstract anti-capitalist perspective, even at the local level to reverse the logic of maximizing profit and exploitation and to assert the need for social control and democratic process.
8. Local governments are boosting the alarm "security" conveyed by the national government and its majority. But for us is security of the territory against speculation, environmental crimes, illegal employment, combat deaths at work, strive to make living socially and culturally the great metropolis. Enough with "mayor-sheriff" or Presidents of the Province "democrats" who ape the League. Enough with the logic of the CPT and Cie, with the resurgence of racial segregation, with the criminalization of immigrant communities, most notably that of Roma True security is to make ends meet, enjoy public services, social rights such as housing, the fight against insecurity. Extend the rights of citizens, from voting to build a unity of working men and women regardless of skin color, religion, nationality, sexual orientation. Class unity, solidarity which is the only one that can really defend the rights and build a perspective of empowerment and improvement of living conditions.
9. Security is the means to live the city, spaces, local suburbs. A goal that is placed across the overbuilding or speculative and commercial real estate. In our cities, the only meeting places for young people are paying places like pubs, restaurants, pubs, discos or even shopping malls. To serve this public areas, free, self-managed. Vitality of the streets but without big-events involving the suburbs, places of cultural permanent space for associations and volunteering, multicultural spaces, self-administered centers.
10. are some plugs for a case of participatory democracy that is often referred to as the flagship of a joint center-but never really applied. What today is decided within the four walls of the municipal councils, provincial and regional and distant against the needs of workers, youth, casual, widespread population. But it's not just transparency, or to introduce the resolutions adopted, are tools for effective participation at local level, which are binding on the choices of the elected institutions. Neighborhood forums, citizens, county to discuss and resolve from the bottom with the obligation to consult on environmental and social choices, and if there were these new tools of democracy on the choices incinerators, gas terminals, many landfills are very different.
11. We finally of cities, municipalities, provinces that have chosen place of freedom and rights. Local Bodies lay where it is not possible to establish Registers symbolic of civil unions, recognizing the equal dignity of citizens / and regardless of their gender and sexual orientation and ensure access to women's rights starting with the right to abortion, sponsoring events like the Civil Liberties Pride.
