Great expectations in the Campidoglio for today's session of the municipal council on the waste emergency and on the future of the highly contested councilor for the environment Paola Muraro, a grillina who was already a superpaid consultant of the Ama even at the time of mayor Alemanno and his figures.
The oppositions will hit two keys above all: the waste emergency is far from over in Rome and the councilor is in a conflict of interest. Mayor Virginia Raggi will defend her but we need to see to what extent because it is no coincidence that the councilor for urban planning Berdini has argued that Muraro "she will have to leave if investigated", as requested by the radical wing of the 5 Star Movement.
But yesterday's news concerns Rome's candidacy for the 2024 Olympics which, according to the Wall Street Journal, would see the Italian capital in pole position: surprisingly, the grillini abstained in the City Council on the motion of Fassina of the Italian Left which called for a popular referendum olympic quote. In Rome, therefore, there will be no vote on the Olympics and the Grillina line on the matter seems less rigid and less opposed than that supported in the electoral campaign.
