"(About Cesare Romiti) He was never a right-wing man. He was a man of the centre-left elite. The liberal turn in both the trade union leadership and the left had its architect in him. Prodi, D'Alema and company are disciples, not enemies, of Romiti. In the US and Great Britain, it was the classic right wing that brought about the liberal restoration, while in Italy it arose from within a section of the left, the so-called reformist or improvementist wing."
