The secretary in the direction against M5s: whoever has the most votes prevails. But the former prime minister: the citizens will decide. The minority dem deserts the vote.
Last October 2, 2026: the election campaign with a view officially began Quirinale. The secretary tries to get ahead of the game PDbut stumbles upon a dry and decisive reaction from Giorgia Meloni. With a difference. While the prime minister is certain that she is and will remain at the head of the centre-right, the young lady who came from Lugano via Bologna to lead the Wide field it’s not safe at all.
Try to bring together what doesn’t fit together: the holy water of Lorenzo Guerini who, like all the reformists of the Democratic Party, does not vote for the report to the national leadership of the party presented yesterday by the secretary and the Apulian oil of Giuseppe Conte. It is an unsuccessful emulsion like the Democratic Party where the season of long knives towards the candidacies began.
The gauntlet to Meloni and the duel of the replies
It falls into a contradiction Elly Schlein stating: «The Meloni government has become the longest-serving and they celebrated it with disproportionate fanfare: it is the only result it can boast». However, she says of herself: “They bet that I wouldn’t last six months, but I’m still here.” With a party that he says has been relaunched, but the vote on the report shows a party torn apart.
The challenge to the prime minister is thrown down with unusual vehemence: «Giorgia Meloni says I have to tell you something true? I’ll tell you ten: after four years more taxes, more debt, skyrocketing costs of living, low salaries, no growth. I want to say to Giorgia Meloni, take note that you have failed and go home. The sooner we vote, the better for Italy.”
Here comes the reply from the Prime Minister: «Elly Schlein responds today to a question I asked her almost two weeks ago. At this rate I can do well to solve the problems of Italians. PS Ah, and obviously he does it by listing ten falsehoods.”
The fiscal algorithm and the dilemma between Scylla and Charybdis
Schlein did not provide any programmatic indications other than a dire omen for Italians dictated by the tax Dracula Vincenzo Visco: «We need to develop European artificial intelligence that can be used to combat tax evasion». It means: big brother of taxes! The rest – school including and in contrast with Sergio Mattarella – are brief notes on the origin of the universe and only words against the government, never for anything.
Elena Schlein must pass between Scylla and Charybdis: between Giuseppe Conte who is competing for the leadership of Campo largo and the party reformists who are waiting for her at the gate Ukraine and anti-Semitism. She tries to escape forward. He sends word to Giuseppe Conte: “It’s not like one is worth one.” The voters, Elena da Lugano remarks, “They gave us double the votes of the other forces: generous yes, naive no.”
So one of two things: «Both the agreement for whoever gets an extra vote and the primaries require popular legitimation: if the party that gets an extra vote leads, it’s not hegemony, it’s democracy. If there are those who don’t recognize this democratic principle, we will hold primaries.” He takes a run at tackling the thorny issue, Ukraine and rearmament, announcing a battle on budget law and insisting on the electoral law: “They are afraid of losing because we are the new thing: a united and competitive progressive alliance.”
The crux of the primaries and the defecting Dem minority
Where it is remains to be determined and to avoid completely tearing it apart, here is the Bettini award on Ukraine: «We are convinced that Europe must make its commitment to a diplomatic and negotiated solution clearer and exercise an initiative that has been lacking up to now; we cannot continue with the phone calls between Trump and Putin, but to build peace we cannot wait for the last gun to fall.” The Veltronian circle-bottism returns: «There are different sensitivities on some points, including decisions», but the synthesis will be found in the relaunch of multilateralism. In Rome they say: hello heart!
Giuseppe Conte nails the secretary of the Democratic Party: «Schlein confirmed that there are two paths for her: either she is the candidate for prime minister or there will be primaries. At this point the path is very clear, there are no alternatives, it will be that of the primaries, because we must always prefer democratic participation.” The pain for young Elena is not over.
If his – including Piero De Luca son of the secretary’s most bitter enemy, Vincenzo, the sheriff of Salerno – the minority praises her and punctures her.
Giorgio Gori – given in the running for the primaries – notes: «The primaries will not be a walk in the park. Giuseppe Conte pursues a rebalancing in terms of leadership and content. To win, even in politics, it is necessary to broaden participation as much as possible. And to do this it is important that the Democratic Party exploits its pluralism. This is the proposal we have put forward. The party president called her wretched.” Therefore the minority deserted the vote on the report even though it was approved.
Lorenzo Guerini explained: «We appreciated the secretary’s outburst of pride towards the Five Stars and the position on Ukraine”, but we are not there yet. In the meantime, she replaces Bella Ciao with Fabio Rovazzi. With the tractor on the ring road Elly says: «After twenty years we have the possibility of winning the elections. Let’s go and win.” Maybe in no particular order!
