Meloni sends Pd and M5s into a tailspin

Meloni sends Pd and M5s into a tailspin

Words and effects of the press conference of the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni. Damato's Scratches

Overshadowed only by the news of the death of Pele, the king of football who thrilled generations of all colors, Giorgia Meloni rightly earned the opening of all the newspapers with her first press conference at the end of the year as prime minister. It lasted a record time of three hours, during which 43 journalists were able to ask questions .

The responses of the first woman at the head of an Italian government, between monarchical and republican regimes, were liquidated in the red by the usual, inevitable Fatto Quotidiano as "year-end lies". Not satisfied with this summary liquidation, Marco Travaglio proposed in his editorial to point out to readers "the most hateful lie", among those of the Prime Minister, without however succeeding because from reading the lies they were all more or less equally hateful, above all in the vagueness, vagueness and so on of the authors, and therefore responsible, of the real or presumed "abuses" of the various rights – from wiretapping to basic income – which should therefore be better regulated or abolished.

Very discounted, I would say, by a newspaper like the one in which former Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte is most recognized – I think -, aspiring leader of the left-wing opposition due to the increasingly liquid or gaseous state to which the Democratic Party has fallen by Enrico Letta. And now of whoever succeeds him in the congressional primaries in February among the candidates already registered for the race and those still tempted by the adventure.

The rediscovered Apulian lawyer "of the people" now has victory at his fingertips in the takeover bid launched on the Democratic Party, demanding a new management group worthy of aspiring to a resumption of the alliance with the grillini. This is demonstrated, among other things, by the opposite reaction, i.e. subjugated, which immediately came from the Democratic Party to Meloni's confirmation of the agreement with the so-called third pole to restore the abolished prescription, with the exhaustion of the first degree of justice, on the initiative by the then pentastellata Minister of Justice Alfonso Bonafede. Who intervened with a supposition introduced in a law of a completely different content, criticized by the Superior Council of the Judiciary but, despite this, left in the promulgation by the President of the Republic. From which one could have expected, at least, a referral to the Chambers for another evaluation permitted by the Constitution.

The return to the statute of limitations, and the consequent exit from the "improcedibility" devised by the subsequent Minister of Justice Marta Cartabia by arranging the maximum duration of the various degrees of judgment with the possibility of extensions, would mean a return to the discipline of the matter which bears the name of another ex Minister of Justice: Andrea Orlando, of the Pd.

Well, in order not to jeopardize the resumption of an alliance with the grillini, of which Orlando al Nazareno himself is among the most committed supporters, the party still led by Enrico Letta – I repeat – took sides against the agreement between the centre-right and the third prong confirmed by the Prime Minister. Imagine for the other aspects – starting with the separation of the careers of judges and prosecutors – of the reform or "coupon" of justice, as Meloni wanted to define it, on which the "excellent" is already working – again the president's word of the Council-keeper of the seals Carlo Nordio.

Meloni's year-end press conference also confirmed the constitutional project of the so-called presidentialism, which is also naturally opposed by the Democratic Party despite having been shared years ago by a bicameral commission chaired not by Silvio Berlusconi, then head of the center-right in all respects , also for electoral consistency compared to the allies, but by an honorable left-wing deputy named Massino and surname D'Alema.
