Republic cane on Meloni and the judiciary

Republic cane on Meloni and the judiciary

The curious accusation of "ungrammatical" of the Republic to Meloni in relations with the judiciary. Damato's Scratches

The images of the inauguration of the judicial year at the Court of Cassation, with the interventions of the Minister of Justice and the vice president of the Superior Council of the Judiciary in the presence of the head of state, are the plastic denial of the bizarre claim that the government is barred in the person of the Prime Minister the participation in this interlocution. A participation which, according to an article published yesterday in Repubblica , would even be "a grammar slip".

WHAT REPUBBLICA WROTE, AND WHY IT'S WRONG

Thus, in particular, was defined by Conchita Sannino, reporting on the election of the lawyer Fabio Pinelli as vice president of the CSM and on the message of congratulations and "good work" promptly sent to him by Giorgia Meloni, "certain – wrote the premier – loyal collaboration with the government to improve justice in Italy”.

A "slightly dystonic" certainty, commented the reporter before arriving at the aforementioned "misgrammar". To which, his goodness, he decided to recognize the extenuating factor of "involuntariness", I imagine with how much and justified surprise of the prime minister. Who hadn't improvised, much less messed up anything. as also in the meeting he had with Nordio during the day to reaffirm his trust and discuss the problems of justice.

It is not at all true that "by role – as the reporter from Repubblica who promoted himself in this passage of his article to constitutionalist, columnist and so on – wrote, Pinelli converses with the President of the Republic", and no one else, being his deputy at the top of the Superior Council of the Judiciary.

Where is this written so that it is a grammar in the light also of the figure of the vice president described with words of satisfaction and encouragement by Mattarella himself after the election of Pinelli? Which, for its part, has not precluded a damn thing, in terms of interlocution with the government, while indicating its "point of reference" in the President of the Republic and of the CSM himself.

On the other hand, every minister should also say about his Prime Minister, renouncing his office when he believes he no longer recognizes himself in his line, and not boycotting him as a dissident with the shield of the unfortunate, I would say perverse lack – which should first or after repair – of an explicit right of the head of government to remove it. Or to request its revocation from the President of the Republic who had appointed him on his proposal, as established by the never mentioned article 92 of the Constitution.

Ah, how many things in this Constitution would need to be changed and updated after 75 years of application, also to prevent improvised constitutionalists from mistaking for "mistakes", albeit involuntary at least sometimes, rights and functions exercised in the context of that loyalty and collaboration between the institutions which every President of the Republic rightly recommends every time he warns them in danger.
