What was said and what was wrong in Meloni’s press conference on the maneuver.
There was also a communication error by the prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, in the press conference on the budget maneuver. Damato's Scratches
THE PRESS CONFERENCE OF MELONI SEEN BY DAMATO
Among the peculiarities of the maneuver adopted by the government of Giorgia Meloni with the budget law, in addition to being the first and most likely not the last of the right-center executive, there is also that of being the only one in history dedicated to a dead person. The Northern League's Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti did so, recalling his friend and party colleague Roberto Maroni who had just passed away prematurely, former minister in the governments of Silvio Berlusconi and president of the Lombardy region: "the gentle barbarian" in the happy title of the Nation and the other newspapers of the Riffeser Monti group.
GOODBYE TO MARONI
It might seem at the moment a disrespectful header for the deceased, considering what the oppositions are shouting against the maneuver by organizing each one, at least until now, a street demonstration. Therefore, the secretary of the Democratic Party Enrico Letta will be able to spare himself on December 17 from participating in the one not yet called by Giuseppe Conte, thus avoiding repeating the at least embarrassing spectacle of the recent demonstration in Rome for peace. From which procession, unlike a celebrated Count, the Piddino secretary had to slip out, or flee, due to the disputes suffered. Of the Meloni maneuver – or Maroni, as Giorgetti would like to call it, ridiculously reduced by Emilio Giannelli in the Corriere della Sera cartoon in the prime minister's role – the least that has been shouted is those "Beatings for the poor and nothing more" by Piero Sansonetti's Reformist .
CITIZENSHIP INCOME DOSSIER
"Relict of citizenship", translated the manifesto from a crime of citizenship as it was before the government's intervention, which will reduce it to eight months' wages for the unemployable in 2023 to abolish it in 2024. "We have restored poverty", he sarcastically made the cartoonist of the Foglio alla Meloni shout from the balcony of Palazzo Chigi to overturn the "defeat of poverty" announced on the same balcony four years ago by the then Northern League vice president of the Council Luigi Di Maio celebrating the institution of that income. The reckless man did not imagine that he would personally pay the costs in 2022 by reapplying for the Chamber practically with the Democratic Party on reversed positions, after leaving the 5 Star Movement, and being rejected. Now he will work – fortunately for him, thanks to an umbrella opened over his head by former Prime Minister Mario Draghi – as an "envoy" of the European Union in the Persian Gulf: at a remuneration – I think – competitive with that achieved at the end of the last legislature by deputy and foreign minister.
THE MANEUVER OF THE MELONI GOVERNMENT
To go back to the Economy Minister's dedication of the maneuver to the late Maroni, Giorgetti's initiative also lends itself to a background reading entirely within the League. Where Maroni, despite his brilliant political past on the Carroccio, had by now been reduced to the political rear by his successor at the helm of the movement, that is Matteo Salvini. That from the Meloni or Maroni maneuver, as you prefer, he comes out somewhat reduced for having certainly achieved something but having even more had to give up, bent on the refusal of higher expenses opposed by his party colleague responsible for government accounts.
GIORGIA MELONI'S ERROR IN THE PRESS CONFERENCE
Finally, on the margins of the maneuver and the illustrative press conference, a certain nervousness must be recorded which the premier indulged in by reducing questions to a minimum and accusing journalists – then backed up by Maurizio Belpietro's Truth – of being "mastini" with her after being " doghouse with Draghi”.
No, dear our lady Prime Minister. These outings -“Who the Melons turn to”, headlined Libero- are not useful to those who promise to stay in Palazzo Chigi for five years. They are communication defects, so to speak, to be avoided.
