The wars of Giorgia Meloni

What happens in the Meloni government? Damato's Scratches

Luckily, in our Republic of Prosecutors, which count for much more than the government of the day and all the fanatics put together, even those who support them and amplify their initiatives, it has not yet occurred to any magistrate to consider a false in public document an incomplete newspaper headline. After all, what is more public than a newspaper headline? Which often distorts reality simply by mutilating it. As Corriere della Sera , Il Giornale and Libero did, for example, today, attributing to the Prime Minister the merit – I presume – of having stopped the budget law, still at the "draft" level, even though quite a few days have passed since approval in the Council of Ministers, the sensational right claimed by the tax authorities to intervene on bank accounts, saving itself from all the other, longer procedures to collect what it demands from taxpayers.

MELONI'S BACKFRONT

In reality, Meloni much less autonomously and willingly had to do the "about-face" contested by Repubblica due to the halt imposed by the Northern League vice-president of the Council Matteo Salvini on her and on her Economy Minister, also a Northern League member, Giancarlo Giorgetti. A hiatus that the prime minister, again according to Repubblica 's story, would have considered an "ambush" by blurting out the promise or threat, as you prefer, to no longer let herself be surprised and "worn out".

“Meloni gives in, the withdrawal from the tax evaders' accounts is skipped”, was the ruthless headline of Il Secolo XIX , thus accusing Salvini of having practically defended them, protected them, courted them and so on. A providential "veto", if you also read the common headlines of the Riffeser Monti group's newspapers – Giorno, Resto del Carlino and Nazione – against such invasive measures.

Never has a cover of L' Espresso , published today but prepared a few days ago, been so current, or timely, with that title and photomontage on the "dearest enemies" who are the prime minister and Salvini, in fact. Which in the majority government has become a bit like what Turkish President Erdogan is in NATO, on the very hot southern front, declared defender of the "liberators", not Palestinian terrorists of Hamas.

MELONS AND SALVINI, ENEMIES OR FRIENDS?

Meloni and Salvini are now even more enemies than they are or risk becoming the prime minister and the Forzista vice president of the Council Antonio Tajani after the reference television of the party left by Silvio Berlusconi to his heirs has at least contributed to breaking up her family Done. Those out-of-the-gates stolen from the imprudent Andrea Giambruno, causing him to lose both his coexistence with the prime minister and the running of his television diary, are now curbstones in the relations between Meloni, Biscione and the surrounding area, including the almighty Antonio Ricci and the refrigerator in which he boasted of keeping the merchandise of his “ Striscia la notizia ”.
