Gianpiero D'Alia (born 22 September 1966 in Messina, Sicilia) is an Italian politician. He is the current coordinator of the Centrists for Europe.
Gianpiero D'Alia was born on 22 September 1966 in Messina. His father was the former Christian Democratic deputy Salvatore D'Alia. He has a degree in law.
He was elected to the Chamber of Deputies for the first time in the 2001 general election. In 2005 he became Undersecretary to the Ministry of the Interior in the Berlusconi III Cabinet. In the 2006 general election he was re-elected Deputy, while in the 2008 election he was elected Senator in the constituency of Sicily.
In the 2013 election he was re-elected to the Chamber of Deputies and he joined, together with the other MPs of UDC, to the Civic Choice's group. In December 2013, D'Alia and the other MPs left the Civic Choice's group to found the new group For Italy.
On 22 March 2014 he was appointed President of the Union of the Centre, after losing the race for the charge of secretary against Lorenzo Cesa in the fourth national congress of the party.
In 2015 he joined the Popular Area gruoup together with the other UDC's MPs. On 2 November 2016 the national UDC secretary Lorenzo Cesa suspends D'Alia from the party and he referred him to arbitrators for highly offensive statements against the same party (he declared few days before "The UDC is dead"). So D'Alia left the UDC to launch Centrists for Sicily, a new party formed in the Sicilian Regional Assembly. In 2017 he became the coordinator of Centrists for Europe, the new party launched by Pier Ferdinando Casini.
