According to his sister Luciana, Pier Giorgio could not understand why the Catholic politicians he supported were not behaving in a way consistent with their Faith. He had high hopes for the newly formed party and was disillusioned by the “collapse of the spirit and moral responsibility” of its leaders.“I’ve been so deceived by the really shameful behavior of members of the People’s Party. Where is the fine program, where is the Faith which motivates our people? Unfortunately when it is a question of climbing after worldly honors men trample upon their own consciences.”
