Giovanni Negri (born 16 May 1957) [1] is an Italian politician.
Born in Turin and a member of the Radical Party (PR), he was the party's secretary from 1984 to 1988, with it dissolving soon after. [2] He was elected to the Chamber of Deputies in 1983 by his city's constituency. He resigned in July 1984, and was replaced by Franco Roccella. He was re-elected again to serve from 1987 to 1992. [3]
From April 1988 to July 1989 he was a Member of the European Parliament. [1] In 2016, he was leading the social movement and planned political party La Marianna, named after Marianne, the effigy of the French Revolution. [2] He described it as a voice for the "homeless" of politics whom he considered to have been let down by Matteo Renzi, Beppe Grillo and Lega Nord. [4] In 2018, he campaigned for Energie per l'Italia (EpI), a centre-right party founded by Stefano Parisi. [5]
