In this respect the faction collaborates with the two other main groups coming from National Alliance which are loyal to Berlusconi, Protagonist Italy (leaders: Maurizio Gasparri, Ignazio La Russa) and New Italy (leader: Gianni Alemanno), along with some minor groups (Christian Reformists, Movement for Italy, etc.).
On 20 April 52 MPs (39 deputies and 13 senators) signed a document in support of Fini and his theses, while other 74 MPs formerly members of AN, including Ignazio La Russa, Maurizio Gasparri, Altero Matteoli and Giorgia Meloni, plus the Mayor of Rome Gianni Alemanno, signed an alternative document in which they reasserted their loyalty to the party and Berlusconi.
Soon after the establishment of the faction, La Russa joined forces with his long-time faction-mate Maurizio Gasparri within Protagonist Italy.
Subsequently, in 2004 Tarak Ben Ammar successfully lobbied the then Italian Communications Minister Maurizio Gasparri for a decree allowing him to convert the concessions from crypted TV to free TV: here, then, Sportitalia.
