In an interview with La Repubblica, former Democratic Party secretary Matteo Renzi announces the split and proceeds with a split. "What's driving me to leave is the lack of a vision for the future," says the former prime minister, who acknowledges his actions in recent years. "The parliamentarians who will follow me will be around thirty, more or less. I'm not saying there's a limited number, but almost." Renzi says he doesn't believe in a unity that he considers a facade. "I want to spend the next few months fighting against Salvini," he continues. "The autonomous groups will be formed this week. And they will be good for everyone," he says. The former secretary explains the reasons for the split. And for the government, the base of parliamentary consensus will likely be broadened; I also told Conte this. So the operation is good for everyone, as Goffredo Bettini observed. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. The reasoning is broader and will be across the country, not just in the government buildings." Will this be a stronger anti-Salvini front? "It's the opposite. We achieved a tactical masterpiece by putting Salvini in a minority using the tools of parliamentary democracy. But the evil populism he expresses has not been defeated and must be defeated in society. And I believe that the liturgies of a Democratic Party scientifically organized into factions and engaged in a laborious and self-referential pursuit of unity as the supreme good no longer work." Unity is a demand that comes primarily from the grassroots. Zingaretti has done everything to maintain it. What is it that you reproach him for? "I have no personal problem with Zingaretti, nor does he have a problem with me. We have always discussed and always maintained a civil tone. There is a political issue here. The Democratic Party was born as the great intuition of an American-style party capable of identifying with a charismatic leader and founded on primaries. Anyone who attempted to play this role was defeated by friendly fire. Today the Democratic Party is a collection of factions. And I fear that it will not be able to respond alone to Salvini's aggression and the difficult coexistence with the Five Star Movement." "Di Maio is not convincing. I didn't do all this work to die a Rousseau partner. For me, politics is something different from Casaleggio's algorithm. But I don't want to disturb the Democratic Party. Our House will not run in regional or municipal elections for at least a year. Anyone who wants to get involved will do so on civic lists or as independents. The first election we will run for will be the general election, hopefully in 2023. And then the European elections in 2024. We have time and energy." Renzi is tight-lipped about the name of the future formation: "I won't tell you the name, but it won't be a traditional party, it will be a house. And it will be feminist, with many high-level women at the helm. Teresa Bellanova will be the head of the government delegation."
