– Today Maximum Gramellini manages to write that the new Italian bipolarism, i.e. Meloni against Schlein, would be the effect of the feminist struggle of the two leaders against “the alfetta males” who were expelled. Alright. But above all, he claims that what facilitated them was “an electoral law, the proportional one, which drives us to compete for votes more with the ally than with the adversary”. Mephistophelian deception. The big result of these European elections is that despite the proportional system, which has favored party fragmentation since time immemorial, a bipolar opposition continues to emerge. Who wrote it very well yesterday Verderami, always on Courier. Maybe Massimo can read the newspaper he writes for every now and then.
– The game opens to the Commission EU. And since Europe was built with the worst fix systems, maybe it’s time to clear things up a bit. First: the president of the EU Commission is proposed by the European Council, i.e. by the heads of state and government ruling at the time, even if they lost the elections. The commissioners, i.e. the European ministers, are divided in the same way: the states choose one, based not on the results of the elections, but on the government in office at the time. So what changes after June 9? Simple: today in the EU council there are more or less strong governments. Meloni is on the launch pad, and will assert his electoral power; Macron and Scholz will not be able to impose themselves.
– Second note: we will start from Ursula von der Leyen because the EPP has the majority in parliament. The question then becomes: who can support it, since the Ppe-Pse-Renew axis does not have enough votes to cover itself from the snipers? The hypothesis that through prejudice we only turn to the Greens, with the exception of “the right”, is unthinkable: imagine that the losers (socialists and liberals) could force an alliance on the winners (the EPP) with those who “disappeared” from political. panorama (the greens) smells like science fiction. Meloni will therefore get a powerful commissioner and then vote for confidence, if only because it would be strange if a head of government nominated a commissioner and then did not support the commission of which he is a part. So Ursula bis can have the vote of a lot of ECR, PPE, socialists and liberals. But in the European Parliament, the game – rather than trust – is played later. On individual measures, where political groups often divide internally based on national needs. And this is where Meloni’s ECR will try to play with Marine Le Pen’s ID and with the more conservative members of the EPP. As already happened at the end of the last legislature.
– Be careful about giving up the Five Star Movement for dead.
– With Vannacci on the list, Fratelli d’Italia would have reached 30%. So, just to say how much it cost FdI to let the general escape. But it is also true that the soldier’s muscularity is not suitable for a leading role in Giorgia’s party, which she is used to not having sidekicks.
– It makes me smile how the left intellectuals took the move into account Emmanuel Macron to dissolve the chambers and proceed directly to a vote. Stefano Bonaccini is also convinced that he made the right choice, because in a democracy “the citizens decide”. They are the same who, during the fall of the Conte I, Conte II and Draghi governments, explained to us in detail how dangerous an institutional crisis was in the midst of pandemics, wars and unstable economic situations. Apparently, the rapid return to voting is only dangerous in Italy.
– The unimaginable risks that happen in France. The National rally Of Marine The Pen and the Gaullists have reached an agreement: they will join the legislative elections in July to seek a historic first far-right government. Recapture by Eric Zemmour and Marion Marèchal, Le Pen’s cousin, is omitted, because it was precisely cut to allow the electoral pact with the Gaullists. Marine knows that to aim for the Elysée she must break that “republican cordon” that has always prevented her from gaining power. And what better opportunity than to demote Eric Zemmour in his place to the role of outcast? In this way, if we interpret the political move correctly, Le Pen, thanks to the Gaullists, is a candidate to abandon the historical isolation of her party and join the ranks of “republican” movements. If they were to win the elections, and bring Jordan Bardella to government, no one would be able to stop her from going to the Elysée under the pretext of defending democracy.
– Pleasant news: it seems that after the election night, immediately after the counting (of the ballots, of course), the Italians went out with onanism. Pornhub recorded a night of fire from voters with a 27% increase in naughty videos seen compared to a normal Sunday in June. The question is: do they celebrate the result or console themselves with a bit of hardcore?
– Have you ever wondered who the real sponsor is Roberto Vannacci? No, we’re not talking about Matteo Salvini. Now that the general has been officially elected to the European Parliament, with perhaps a bright political future, perhaps the time has come to sincerely thank those who made him who he has become. Not the army. Not his studies. No military experience. And not even “The World in Reverse”. But the editors of Repubblica who somehow brought out his unknown self-produced book and made it the editorial case of the year. There is no worse heterogeneity than the objectives of the editorial maneuver carried out by Molinari’s newspaper, advocated by chic intellectuals and various television channels, all convinced that they are a crippled general and finally transform him into an honorable one. Hats off.
– He runs the risk of being left out of the European Parliament Annalisa Corrado, an iron Schleinian, who became famous not so much for her political skills (which she will certainly have), but for her impromptu proposal to abolish irons in favor of the climate. Everything depends on Alessandro Zan, who was elected both in the North-West and in the North-East: if he chooses the eastern constituency, he will cut out Corrado. That at that point there would be nothing left for her to do but crumple in the weather, but without a seat.
– The rector of the Wisdom let it be known that the pro-Palestinian occupations cost the University, i.e. the taxpayers, i.e. all of us, something like 330 thousand euros in various damages. The walls, the chapel, the spaces for disabled students and the Geology Mammoth were vandalized. Do you think anyone will be scanned? No, of course. “They are boys,” they will say. “This is the protest,” they will repeat. But it makes you not want to pay taxes knowing that the money of those who work will be flushed down the toilet to pay for the damage of those who play to demonstrate instead of studying.
– Nico Balice will be the new mayor of Thermoly. And you will say: well? Right. But the fact is that Nico won with 70% of the votes, practically a plebiscite, and the City Council will consist of 19 majority members and only 5 minority members. He has such a consensus that he could name an equestrian statue in the square after himself and no one would dare say anything.
– The new idol of the masses is the young rider who used the blue flashing light to deliver pizzas in Treviso without delays. Total genius. Then he also had a few grams of hashish and they took away his license, but those are details.
– Small note in the margin. In the preference challenge, Roberto Vannacci he hit Ilaria Salis bit by bit But most of all, he tore it up Alexander Zan, the father of that gender identity and homophobia bill that was much discussed and ultimately aborted by the Senate. The Dem exponent and the general are like the devil and holy water, they live on opposite sides.
The fact is that in the two constituencies where armed men ran against each other, Vannacci received 328 thousand preferences and Zan only 177 thousand. Almost double. Perhaps the general was right when he claimed that those who contested and opposed him were a “minority of people, but a much smaller number than those who support me”.
