I’ll tell you about Grillo’s war against Conte
What happens between Grillo and Conte. The Scratches of Damato
Everyone immediately thinks of the usual "anger transformed into divertissement" by comedian Beppe Grillo – as Alessandro Trocino wrote in Corriere della Sera – when the guarantor and so on of Momento 5 Stelle announced his album of stickers to pillory the traitors, displaced persons, zombies, infected by the "party disease" and so on in a "digital lynching", again according to the Corriere della Sera .
The most indulgent towards the comedian, forgetting his foolishness in the last political mission to Rome, which was supposed to be orderly but turned into disorder, which quickly resulted in a government crisis and the early dissolution of the Chambers, saw in the recourse to figurines an attempt to recover space and political initiative in an electoral campaign now dominated by others and more. In which the pentastellati, as the "sfonnatrice" Paola Taverna observed in an interview with Fatto Quotidiano , now have no choice but to "run alone".
With the history of the stickers, in fact, wanting to be indulgent too, Grillo managed to remain in the political news even if dominated by "extra time" – as Repubblica called them in the opening title – of the negotiations between Enrico Letta and Carlo Calenda for an electoral alliance against the center-right. A Letta that Il Fatto Quotidiano has accused of allowing itself to be "bullied by Mister 3.6%", as evidenced by the announcement evidently snatched from Nicola Fratoianni, of the Italian left, contested by Calenda in single -member constituencies for having always denied trust in Draghi. “But do you think – said Fratoianni himself to Wanda Marra, of the Fatto Quotidiano – that at 50 I am stopping for a job? I never did it". He will be content to run only in the blocked lists of the proportional share of parliamentary seats, where the Left and the Greens expect to exceed the 3 percent threshold. "We take the 4, or rather the 5", predicted the antidragiano doc.
Yet there is something about Grillo's figurines, after his fools, that does not allow them to be dismissed as extemporaneous. It is something pointed out by the same title of the Corriere in the part in which it detects a violation of the statute of the Movement of which Grillo is casually guarantor, as usual. “When the identity fades, the insult regroups. Too bad for Giuseppe Conte, who in the statute – Alessandro Trocino recalled – had done a good homework ". Which sounds like this in the text wanted by the former Prime Minister and accepted in words by Grillo: “Aggressive verbal expressions must be considered on a par with violent behavior”.
Here is the point: disregarding Conte's tasks and tasks, complicating his life in the movement as much as possible, as Grillo himself also did by opposing any derogation to the limit of the double mandate, to the extent or precisely because he was informed of the promises made by the professor and lawyer left and right under the five stars.
One of the victims of the no to the exceptions imposed by Grillo on Conte is the vice president of the Senate Paola Taverna. Who surrendered to the ban by announcing to Fact – and who else? – that after 10 years as a parliamentarian she is ready to serve the movement for another ten years as a former senator. But she remained faithful to Conte's "homework" on the statute, saying, about Grillo's stickers against traitors, deserters, zombies and the like: "I have only the faces of those who remained in the Movement in my eyes". I fear that these words cost a lot to Mrs. Taverna, just in homage to the "spearhead" that remains Conte for her, knowing the usual and Roman vivacity of her language in what we call political debate.
