Italy’s great challenges should be addressed with dialogue and collaboration. Maurizio Landini, however, does not deny himself and, shortly before the start of the meeting at Palazzo Chigi on the budget bill, reaches Prime Minister Meloni handing her a calculator and a volume of “The Man in Revolt” by Albert Camus. According to what we learn, in fact, shortly before the meeting between the government and the unions, the secretary of the CGIL and that of the UIL Pierpaolo Bombardieri provoked the prime minister who, at that point, asked Luigi Sbarra a question: “You don’t Did he bring anything?” The CISL leader allegedly replied: “We didn’t bring any gadgets. We will limit ourselves to giving you our proposals to improve the development policy of this country.”
On the other hand, the intention to attack the government had been clear for some time. “I will give the Prime Minister the book by Albert Camus ‘The Man in Revolt’ because, if they are afraid of words, it is good that they grasp a theme: that is, that faced with a level of injustice and inequalities like the one we are determining, I believe that there is a need for people to no longer accept, not to turn away. There is a need for a radical change that starts both from political action but also from personal action”, he declared this morning Landini answering journalists’ questions.
And again: “It is the people who must come together, also in terms of solidarity, to fight this level of injustice of redistribution of wealth to the detriment of those who work. It cannot be that those who work are poor and it cannot be that our young people – more than one hundred thousand a year – have to go abroad to fulfill themselves, when we are an aging country”, he added.

**Interview with Maurizio Landini: A Call for Dialogue in Italy’s Political Landscape**
*Interviewer*: Thank you for joining us today, Maurizio Landini. Your recent interaction with Prime Minister Meloni before the budget bill meeting raised eyebrows. Can you tell us about your intention behind handing her a calculator and the book “The Man in Revolt” by Albert Camus?
*Landini*: Thank you for having me. The act was meant to symbolize the urgency of our situation. A calculator represents the need for practical solutions and accountability in government spending, while Camus’s work speaks to the importance of rebellion and critical thought. It is crucial that we not shy away from discussing difficult topics.
*Interviewer*: Your meeting with the Prime Minister was charged with tension. Do you believe that the government is listening to the unions’ concerns?
*Landini*: I think there is a level of dialogue, but it must be deeper. We cannot shy away from critical issues facing Italy. My hope is that by presenting these symbols, we can foster a more constructive conversation that prioritizes the well-being of workers and families.
*Interviewer*: During the meeting, there was a light-hearted moment when CISL’s Luigi Sbarra mentioned not bringing any “gadgets” but rather proposals. What are some of the key proposals your coalition aims to present?
*Landini*: Our proposals focus on improving the development policy of Italy, particularly in supporting sustainable jobs, fair wages, and investment in public services. We believe that potential economic growth can be achieved through inclusive dialogue and policies that prioritize people over profits.
*Interviewer*: You mentioned earlier the importance of not being afraid of words. How can this principle guide the government in making better decisions?
*Landini*: Words have the power to inspire change. When leaders engage openly with different perspectives, they can challenge outdated notions and embrace innovative strategies. Encouraging dialogue is essential for addressing social inequalities and fostering a stronger, united Italy.
*Interviewer*: what message do you want to convey to the Italian people regarding these political negotiations?
*Landini*: I want to assure Italians that we are committed to advocating for their rights and needs. The discussions we are having are not just political exercises; they are essential for our collective future. Let’s engage in this process together—open dialogue can lead to real progress.
*Interviewer*: Thank you, Maurizio Landini, for sharing your thoughts with us today. We appreciate your insights on this significant moment in Italy’s political landscape.
*Landini*: Thank you for having me. It’s time for cooperation and meaningful change.
