Domodossola removes Bossi from his role as president of the municipal council, with a vote of no confidence
A Split at Domodossola City Council: Marco Bossi Tossed Out
In an intense assembly, the Domodossola City Council has formally ousted President Marco Bossi. The move, proposed by the ruling group "Lucio Pizzi sindaco," gained 11 votes.
Notably, Simone Racco, who previously led the majority group, and Angelo Tandurella from Fratelli d'Italia, voted against the motion. Bossi and PD, Lega, and the departing chamber members chose to exit during the voting process.
When queried about his absence, Bossi explained, "Though not legally obligated, I opted to abstain out of respect for institutions and to avert tampering. I reserve the right to defend the presidential role and the city's institutional integrity in the appropriate forums."
This event caps off over a month of turmoil between Mayor Pizzi and Bossi. Tension arose around mid-March when Bossi and Racco departed the majority to form the group "Impegno civico per Domodossola." The friction was sparked by disagreements with the mayor's decisions.
The new majority leader, Maurizio Oioli, spearheaded the motion, citing Bossi's involvement in permanent council commissions as a breach of the impartiality expected from the City Council presidency.
Tonight's vote marked the seventh item on the agenda and was met with a unified show of strength from the majority, leading to Bossi's dismissal. As a result, a new president will be appointed at the forthcoming assembly.
Political turnarounds like this can be triggered by various factors, such as conflicting party dynamics, disagreements over policy, administrative or legal concerns, or internal votes of no confidence resulting from perceived ineffective leadership or failure to meet council objectives.
