Because the Fatto Quotidiano di Travaglio sees risks for Conte

Because the Fatto Quotidiano di Travaglio sees risks for Conte

All the political turmoil on Prime Minister Conte and the discontent of the Fatto Quotidiano directed by Marco Travaglio

Not even Angela Merkel's medal metaphorically hung around the neck by Giuseppe Conte at the end of yesterday's presumed political armor interview with Repubblica, which ended precisely with the announcement of an indelible phone call from Berlin, or surroundings, managed to dispel the shadows of crisis. Threatening the government in view of the vote in the Senate on the reform of the European economic stability mechanism, better known to the public as Mes, almost like a cigarette now out of production, in whose packages, however, there are very easy credits for the Italian health service to test with the pandemic.

CONTE'S POLITICAL PRECARITY

The political precariousness of Giuseppe Conte, although his temperature continues to be regular in epidemic controls, can be read for once very clearly on the unsuspected front page of the Fatto Quotidiano, systematically committed until the day before yesterday to represent the Prime Minister as the man of Providence on duty, a somewhat improvised statesman, for his daring arrival at Palazzo Chigi in 2018 and the even more daring confirmation in 2019 at the head of another majority, and yet highly appreciated in the world. Even the then and fortunately not re-elected president of the United States Donald Trump happily spoke of him in the plural, calling him Giuseppi.

WHAT SAYS THE DAILY FACT ABOUT CONTE

This time Marco Travaglio's very familiar newspaper , introduced like very few others to Palazzo Chigi, is forced to confirm, as he has been writing for a few weeks, that Nicola Zingaretti's Pd is "divided on the 5 Stars", not therefore on Conte, although the newspapers are full of complaints and protests by piddini of all grades and colors against his methods and delays, but also to specify that to put the Prime Minister "in danger on the Mes", in the vote scheduled in a few days in the Senate, they are “the 5S rebels”, who “don't give up”. And to whom probably, in a leap of sovereignty or sovereignty that reunites them with the Northern League of the first majority of this legislature, that almost privileged relationship with Merkel flaunted by Conte has turned the boxes further.

THE SUBBUGLI M5S ON MES AND CONTE

Yes, it's true, last year, suddenly abandoned by a Salvini eager to repeat at the national level the doubling of the votes achieved in the election of the European Parliament, the grillini discovered the advantages that could be derived from participating in the majority for the election of Merkel's candidate for president of the new European Commission Ursula von der Leyen . But a lot of water has passed under the bridge since those days. The grillino group has lost some exponents along the way, like those of Rome. And that unpredictable devil of Berlusconi, in a sudden convergence with the difficult ally Salvini in the Italian center-right, discovered the disadvantages for Italy of the ESM reform now agreed in Brussels. This was enough and advanced to the "dissident" Grillini to raise the bulkheads against the use of European credits for the strengthening of the national health service, although the Cavaliere casually continues to recommend it anyway.

In this mess, which I think does no credit to anyone, the unfortunate Count is forced between the lines and the shadows of his cryptic messages to bet on the Scilipoti on duty, as happened to Berlusconi in 2010 at Palazzo Chigi to survive a few more months . But this time we also have the pandemic to deal with.
