Grillo claims the name and symbol of the Movement 5 Stars, at the start a legal action

ROMA (ITALPRESS) – Beppe Grillo started a lawsuit to claim the name and symbol of the 5 Star Movation. It makes him known in a Facebook post by former MP M5S Marco Bella. “In a normal world, no political force erases 70,000 members (never done before) just to hunt who founded it. Unfortunately, we do not live in a normal world – Bella writes. We live in a world where work for citizens, the word given, the commitments made… unfortunately for someone, do not count anything. Do you want to see the Symbol and the Name of the Mobility associated with people who will use them exclusively for their own personal return? Of course not. Do you want to see the Symbol and the Name of Movation in a coalition where there is Matteo Renzi, one who in full pandemic dropped the Count II government supported by PD and M5S, and claims it as well? Of course not.”.

“The legal battle will be difficult, long and complex. And who will be in the front row will be unfortunately Beppe. Just the person who the MoVimento founded it, forced once again to put his money on it. Against someone who, instead, has secured millions of public funding – Bella emphasizes -. The dignity, however, has no price. It is a just battle and how difficult it must be done.”.

COLUCCI “SIAMO TRANQUILLI, SUA AZIONE INFONDATA”

“We face with absolute tranquility this initiative by Beppe Grillo that already manifests itself to an absolutely unfounded first examination. We had already anticipated that it is absolutely improper and absurd Grillo’s claim to be the owner of the identification elements of the Movement, in particular the name and symbol. The community of members already with the constituent assembly asked him that the values of the M5S belong exclusively to the community. It will now be a judge to clarify that even the denomination and symbol of the 5 Star Movement belong not to individual personalities, of the past as of the present, but to the whole community. The democratic life of a political community cannot and must not be be bent to master logic, which is the denial of the fundamental principles of democratic freedom which must characterize political formations. We will respond firmly to Grillo’s request and evaluate with balance a possible request for damages for an initiative that clearly appears temerary.” So the MP of the M5S Alfonso Colucci commented on the news of the judicial initiative with which Beppe Grillo intends to claim the symbol of the M5S.
