The Prime Minister has spoken out on social media following the controversy surrounding the jeweller’s case and calls for compensation from the relatives of the thieves who were killed: “You attack me. I defend myself. And I’m supposed to compensate you? That’s not fair.” A detention order has been issued by the Asti Public Prosecutor’s Office

Support for stability, an antidote to political upheavals, a reality check for coalitions. The bill approved yesterday in the Chamber of Deputies offers many reasons to rejoice (even for the broad coalition). Opportunities, things left unsaid and a black hole called Vannacci  

The Prime Minister breathes a sigh of relief at the approval of the Stabilicum and is already looking ahead to September: she’s heading to the beach, in the south, to celebrate the longest-serving government in the history of the Republic. But relations with Salvini and Tajani remain strained

Allies who cannot tolerate one another, opposition parties rebelling against what they actually need, and a government refusing to take the path that would steer them clear of the quagmire: voting. The electoral law is a farce. Welcome to the bar-style festival of hypocrisy

A Europeanised right is in the public interest. Because if a demagogic assault were to be launched, lacking any serious political substance, the result would be to force the Prime Minister – in her quest to regain lost support – into a role that is the opposite of what she has sought to embody over the past four years

The former Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies says: “It is right to ask people to vote for candidates, especially for a government that wanted to introduce the office of Prime Minister. But you can’t tell the turkeys to bring Christmas forward. The opposition parties have played dirty.”
