A few hours after the vote that assigned Ilaria Salis a seat in Strasbourg , numerous political representatives of the Milanese right are shining the spotlight on the future MEP allowance of the former teacher now under house arrest in Budapest.
Yesterday it was the turn of the Milanese city councilor of Fratelli d'Italia, Enrico Marcora, who announced that he had written to Aler to request the collection of the debt accrued for the illegal occupation of a public housing unit.
«May Aler act immediately to seize Ilaria Salis's future salaries as a European parliamentarian», Marcora's request. Who specifies: " The positive thing about his election to the European Parliament is Aler's possibility of recovering the important sum owed ."
According to what was reconstructed by local newspapers, in Milan there would be a credit of around 90 thousand euros for the occupation of an apartment in the Navigli area starting from 2008. The arrears of rent were then calculated with the maximum envisaged increase, i.e. 150 percent, and over time the amount has risen to the disputed figure.
Aler, at the moment, announces that "as happens in all similar cases", it will follow "all the paths established by law to recover the credit".
In the meantime, father Roberto Salis lets it be known in an interview with QN that Ilaria is «already at work. With representatives of the Greens and Left Alliance he is preparing for his new role in the European Parliament . She wants to arrive prepared. He took both the candidacy and the election seriously. She is a conscientious girl and I am sure she will do her job professionally."
The former teacher will join the Avs party on Sunday at the Labriola cooperative in Milan together with fellow party candidates for the European elections. It will be his first public political outing as an MEP .
«The work of the tenth legislature of the European Parliament will open on 16 July. In four and a half weeks there will be the proclamation and at that point we can talk about immunity and liberation - explains Roberto Salis -, but we expect the Italian government to move to ensure that Ilaria can return home much sooner".
Europe needs «an anti-fascist like Ilaria who cares about all the problems of the weakest, such as the defense of civil rights, migrants, public education, I am convinced that she will be very useful - he concludes -. The over 176 thousand people wrote her name on the ballot, this is my daughter's victory."
