Napolitano, a warning to parties "Tired of politics uncivilized"

MATERA - President of the Republic, with dry and even bitter tone, he returned to criticize the quality of political debate: "I'm tired of politics uncivilized." The president adds nostalgic for the days when political forces were confronted with civility in Parliament. "In his speech arm in Matera, the inqulino the Hill recalled the policy of the '50s and '60s, "a time when you were not so many compliments, there were ideological divisions, but we respected, we listened, there was a lot of respect between adversaries. " The South and its development was the second strong point of the speech. It refers to the stones of Matera, a Chairman and emphasizes how "local heritage but also of a united Italy." In fact they are "part of the largest shareholders of Italy that we wanted, who wanted to unify the partisans of Bergamo and Liguria as the Sicilians." "The fathers of the Renaissance ever imagined we could do without the South Italy: Italy was not" continues Napolitano. From this we must start to "draw the consequences" of reasoning. Maybe it will be "hard" but also necessary for "the political institutions and" national. It seems to capture a general recall at the premises and not to limit the old North-South divisions. The Southern question "must be restored to their rightful place in the front row," despite some recently have even theorized that no longer existed.
Yet "there is a part of the country" that is too far from the levels of development and life of the other. "Overcoming this gap is one of the issues on which Italy was born."
