Land regains, majority in alarm. Meloni intervenes on video: 'We will not ask Italians for new sacrifices'. Schlein: she lies to the country

'Despite the fact that from the opposition some would like, for example, the introduction of patrimonial assets, of further taxes, we will remain faithful to our commitment, which is to work for a manoeuvre that will relaunch the economy, improve the lives of Italians, without asking them new sacrifices'. This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in a video on social media.

"I remind you that those who do building renovations are required to update their cadastral data." It was the words of the Minister for the Economy, Giancarlo Giorgetti, after that 'sacrifices for all' of last week that frightened the stock exchanges and the majority, that sounded an alarm. Because the owner of the Mef, who has never used tender words for the measure that has sent the public deficit skyrocketing, seemed to have put the compulsory increase in cadastral rents for those who took advantage of the 110% to improve their homes in his sights.

The undersecretary for the economy, Federico Freni, closes the space for this hypothesis in his reply on the Budget Structure Plan under discussion in the Senate. 'It would have been enough to listen to Minister Giorgetti's words and look at what is written in the Psb (we are on page 156 last paragraph) to see that no one envisages any tax on the house. The house for the centre-right is sacred and no one will tax it'.

"We all remember Meloni in front of the petrol station doing theatrics promising that she would cut excise duties. Now explain this new tax Meloni to the country. Even today we saw her on video lying to the country with an open face,' while 'it is written here in a document approved by the Cdm, the Psb, on page 116'. This was said by PD secretary Elly Schlein in her explanation of vote on the labour bill, citing from the Psb 'the alignment of excise rates for diesel and petrol'.

"Meloni has a lot of nerve, she says she didn't raise taxes. And what is the doubling of VAT on nappies? What are the cuts to healthcare and pensions? And the cuts in tax breaks for young people buying their first home? And again the intervention on excise duties that will even lead to an increase in the shopping trolley'. Thus the president of the M5s, Giuseppe Conte, in a press point at the Chamber. 'Here these are cuts, these are new taxes. In addition, what does the stability pact envisage? Cuts of 13 billion. Who signed it? Giorgia Meloni with this government."
