The contradictions of Elly Schlein

The contradictions of Elly Schlein

Tribulations and pirouettes by Elly Schlein. Damato's Scratches

Seven million students return to school, or at least try, despite finding one substitute teacher in four. The Democratic Party, on the other hand, is preparing to return to the streets – according to secretary Elli Schlein in Ravenna, closing the celebration of the old Unity – so as not to leave Maurizio Landini and Giuseppe Conte alone to warm up the coming autumn. And also making the good Federico Geremicca discover in the Press that "the dem universe has changed its face" now: so much so that 31 people elected in Liguria alone come out in a single day in the direction of Carlo Calenda to the satisfaction of the secretary. Who accused them of having made a mistake at the time in entering or remaining there waiting to see and understand what she was capable of doing.

The president of the party Stefano Bonaccini, defeated in the race for the secretariat for the vote of the "outsiders", especially Grillini, objected to the "superior" in an almost purple blouse, for half Lent, about being in the square – according to Osho in Time – more of a knife grinder. Which in fact in the square, or on the street, is no longer seen or heard, even knives have become so disposable.

Less ironically than Bonaccini and Osho, but with more relief from Gorgia Meloni returning from India, Il Foglio declaredly sympathetic to Enrico Letta's PD in last year's political elections and then a bit see-sawing with the female-led PD, he mercilessly reproached Schlein for "looking for a model among the losing left" in Europe: from Brexit England to France, from Germany to Spain, where Pedro Sanchez is still trying to survive the defeat recently inflicted on him by the People's Party. But at what price? The editor of the newspaper explained it to her with a cherry between his teeth, reminding her that the socialist prime minister is hanging from the party led by Carles Puigdemont, still pursued by an arrest warrant issued by the Spanish judiciary due to the separatist referendum promoted years ago in Catalonia.

“Can the leader of a party that has transformed the battle against differentiated autonomy into one of its distinctive elements support a government that would be born thanks to the votes of a party one hundred times more nationalist than the League?”, Cerasa asked Schlein, nailing her to the cross , fortunately, only metaphorical of inconsistency and ease. The unfortunate woman, unlike Manzoni's nun from Monza, will not respond naturally, being Cerasa – I believe – a damned heterologist, General Roberto Vannacci would proudly say while awaiting another assignment in the Army after the meeting with the Minister of Defense Guido Crosetto, in his once again media coverage from effusions at the seaside with his wife, less imposing but more beautiful than him.
