within the PD

Crisanti (PD): “The Acerbo row is pointless. We need to vote in Palestine; if Hamas wins, so be it.”

The secretary of Rifondazione Comunista maintains that celebrating 7 October is not a criminal offence. For the Democratic Party senator who will be forming a parliamentary group with him in the Senate, this is not a problem: “We should fight to ensure that the Palestinians can hold free elections and decide who should represent them.”

The centre’s alibi

Magi is forming a parliamentary group in the Chamber of Deputies. With Soumahoro and Tabacci, but without the PD. The PD is considering Acerbo

“They haven’t been particularly responsive in the broader political arena…”, says the leader of +Europa, which has now reached 5 seats. Help from Conte and Schlein is not forthcoming, despite Magi’s appeal. Vetoes and counter-vetoes are slowing down the formation of the centre, whilst a Rifondazione Comunista

faction could emerge in the Senate.

Towards Montepulciano

Messages for Schlein. Il Correntone reserves its candidate lists and puts pressure on the secretary: “Now it’s time for the committees for change”

The Orlando-Franceschini-Speranza faction will back the Democratic Party leader, but is ready to put forward its demands. “We need to involve our activists; we can’t just call on them to set up campaign stalls.”

The interview

Sandra Zampa: "Postpone the congress? Schlein shouldn’t take it for granted that everyone’s happy with that." Doubts about the future

The senator, who is close to Prodi: “I’m saddened; the PD has now become a barracks. The Assembly won’t be easy. A reformist candidacy would be beneficial to the party.” Digs at Bonaccini and Boccia

The Russian temptation

Carotenuto (M5S): “Diesel? The EU should reconsider its relations with Moscow.” And Conte clashes with AVS over the wealth tax

“The United States is looking after its own interests, as demonstrated by the diesel agreement with Putin. At this point, Europe should also take a step back and reflect. Countries such as Spain, Belgium and France have never stopped buying Russian gas,” says the MP. Meanwhile, another problem has arisen ahead of the programme

Vannacci’s predicament. Fn attempts a comeback with Trump and Putin’s diesel. But Cateno De Luca finds himself back on the streets

On the day of Meloni’s address, Vannaccia’s supporters organised a sit-in to call for Russian energy: the agreement between Russia and the US is “a lesson for Italy”. The leader of Sud chiama Nord, an ally of FdI, stole the limelight. The Prime Minister lashed out in the Chamber: “Opportunists”

A witch-hunt against Renzi’s supporters?

Conte vs Renzi. Guerini: “No to vetoes”. The broad coalition (including IV) rallies behind Conte and opposes rearmament. The problem remains Kyiv

The M5S continues to demand assurances regarding the leader of IV, who replies: “Ci vorrà pur qualcuno che faccia opposizione alla destra mentre altri si divertono (male) col fuoco amico”. The former Defence Minister: “Anche i centristi da subito al tavolo per il programma”. And Boccia: “I veti di Conte? Contano i fatti, siamo uniti”.

the other match

Turin, Milan, Sicily: the other challenges facing the broad coalition seeking unity. AVS is demanding a voice

Compromises, demands, vetoes and pre-emptive moves. The M5S’s ‘no’ continues to reject Lo Russo’s return. “We need a break with the past,” says Appendino. Positions remain far apart for the post-Sala era too. The infrastructure issue remains a sticking point whilst work continues on joint resolutions regarding Kyiv

Meloni’s timing. She is manipulating the schedule, but is bringing the vote forward to June (which may suit Schlein).

Meloni’s supporters are scrutinising the timetable and the polls. And a new possibility is gaining ground: “6th or 20th June”. Forza Italia and the League, on the other hand, want to hold the election in the autumn. “But it would be better to hold it sooner, for the Budget Bill’s sake,” says Filini. The impact on the broader political landscape
