Lega, from the Maroni method for Milan to the liberal economy: this is how Garavaglia launches the takeover bid for the party

The card was placed on the table this week with the announcement of the candidacy for the national congress. Now Massimo Garavaglia, current president of the League's Finance commission, defines the framework of his proposal to compete for the leadership of the League with Matteo Salvini. He does so during the interview with Omnibus on La7, invoking the method of listening according to the teachings of Roberto Maroni also to identify the candidate for mayor of Milan, claiming the choice for a liberal position in economics and indicating the way back to listening to the territory.

First of all, the former Minister of Tourism explains the reasons for his choice to take the field for the leadership of the Northern League: «Since there are different souls, I have the right to give voice to a different soul. I have spoken with many, with governors, with parliamentarians and many people think this way, so the idea of ​​having a congress in which we discuss peacefully and move forward united but hearing all the bells is called politics."

To those who ask him why the League has fallen so low, Garavaglia replies: "In my opinion we have forgotten our soul and then we have to go back to talking to people, this would do the League a lot of good."

Milan Chapter. Here Garavaglia argues: «The choice of candidate is complicated, Milan is a multi-level city, there is the Navigli area and then the rest. We need someone who speaks to the two souls of Milan. Being able to speak to large industrialists and to those who find it difficult to live in Milan is complicated. And then we have to talk about Milan in a big way because the city thrives on so many commuters who go there and keep it lit. It would be necessary to make a broader reasoning, we need a figure who manages to unite these souls."

Garavaglia's idea is to look at the legacy of Roberto Maroni, a politician (with important institutional roles as minister and governor of Lombardy) who passed away almost four years ago, who made the history of the League: «Maroni's great teaching: talk little, listen a lot».
