00:00What is the situation in my country, where you know there is an extreme right government led by Giorgio Meloni?
00:06It's very simple. They're cutting down the public health system.
00:10Six million Italians are giving up going to the hospitals because they cannot afford it.
00:18At the same time, they're cutting down public education by canceling 6,000 teachers last year.
00:25And at the same time, we have seen that they are blocking our proposal for a minimum wage in one of the European countries that has the least, the worst wages across the whole European Union.
00:37So it's pretty clear what they're doing. Propaganda every day.
00:40What they're doing is fueling a climate of division, polarization and hatred.
00:46And we pay the consequences of that every day.
00:48The last week in Florence, the prime minister of my country said that the oppositions are worse than terrorists.
00:56And at the same time, in this climate of hatred, I want to express my solidarity to one of the most famous inquiry journalists in my country, Sigfrido Ranucci,
01:06because yesterday there was a bomb in front of his house.
01:10So democracy is at risk.
01:13The freedom of speech is at risk when the extreme right is in government.
01:17But just to be quick, the fact is that the extreme right, when it's in government, is not delivering for the basic needs of our people.
01:25And I will stick with Jacinda and with Magdalena on this.
01:28What we have to do is remember who we are as socialists.
01:32We can beat them.
01:33And we are beating them in local and regional elections.
01:36But we will not beat them by running after their agenda.
01:41We have to force them on our ground of social and climate justice and democracy and freedom for all.
