Everything and the opposite of everything: this is what Prime Minister Meloni said and did on the new Stability Pact. Not a test of linearity that made Italy look bad
The abstention of the Democratic Party in the European Parliament on the new Stability Pact is simply surreal: not only because it denies all the meritorious work of Eurocommissioner Gentiloni but because it even distances him from the European socialist family. You can't sell off your reformist soul for…
Morselli's nomination as president of Pininfarina offends common sense. Evidently the shareholders of Mahindra, who control the company famous for its design and futuristic cutting-edge car models, do not know the true history of the family that…
The Democratic Party is threatening to no longer appear on Tg1 as a sign of protest against too many reports on the scandals in Bari and Turin. What an incredible gift to the right
Far from being a broad field, that of the Governor of Puglia, Michele Emiliano, is a very broad field where he gathers men and votes from the right and left who have made him the ras of the region with a visibly transformative method. But on the case…
The Meloni Government's haste to shelve the wedding project between ITA Airways with Delta and Air France to favor the Germans of Lufthansa and mark a turning point compared to the Draghi Government in air transport has so far not led...
The assault financier Vincent Bollorè thought he would conquer Italy by investing in Tim and Mfe but it didn't go that way and the losses accumulated in the two operations are huge. Today, however, Tim is tipping the scales but derailing...
Compared to the results achieved in the Abruzzo regional elections five years ago, Salvini and Conte's performance on Sunday was terrible. Has the decline begun for extreme populism?
Roman greetings and hymns to the Duce from the Lazio ultras in Munich in Hitler's beer hall and songs from the Roman fans against the Jews returning from Monza. It's time to say enough and banish them forever from…
The costs of the Superbonus for Italian taxpayers are rising day by day: the choice of the Conte 2 Government which introduced it and of the right which allowed its extension turned out to be madness
The referendums launched by the CGIL have nothing to do with trade unions but are the antechamber of a political project that Landini hopes to crown with his leadership of the M5S-Pd axis on a maximalist and populist platform that is completely unlikely to…
Not even Navalny's assassination pushes Salvini to abandon his ambiguity and closeness with Putin's Russia. But can such a person remain deputy prime minister in a European and Atlanticist country?
By rejecting Bonino's opening to Renzi for the formation of a purposeful list for the European elections, Calenda demonstrates that he has lost the luster of when he was Minister of Development and that he puts chicken-coop squabbles before a...
Faced with the tractor revolt, the Prime Minister and the Minister of Agriculture don't know which way to turn because they approved the European agricultural policy and above all because it was they and not the EU who raised taxes on farmers...
A hypothetical intervention by the Italian state in the capital of Stellantis would be very expensive (over 6 billion euros) but could not even remotely influence the strategy of the Italian-French car manufacturer, given that the majority is firmly in the hands of the current shareholders
The France of Macron and Attal has a precise plan of interventions in the face of the tractor revolt that is spreading across half of Europe, but Italy is stuttering and still doesn't know exactly what to do
Both the leader of the League Salvini and the leader of the Five Star Movement Conte do not hide their sympathy for Trump and are rooting for his return to the White House but Trump brings with him the alliance with Putin, with good…
The ramshackle attacks on Stellantis reveal the premier's sovereignist anti-capitalism and anti-market culture, as had already emerged in the summer with the extra tax on banks. It is curious that in the days in which Meloni accuses Stellantis of favoring France over…
The multinational ArcelorMittal is certainly the main culprit in the crisis of the former Ilva and the large steel plant in Taranto but the origin of the disaster bears the signature of the Conte 2 Government which in 2020 signed an unfortunate agreement with the Indians...
Forgetting the humiliating Italian flop of Expo 2030 and the failure in the nomination to the top of the EIB, Foreign Minister Tajani tried in the Senate to accredit the image of an "Italy that wins" on the international level but he thought about it the leader…
Mourinho's last season on the Roma bench couldn't have gone any worse: not only zero titles but continuous defeats and humiliations. Especially in derbies. It's not him anymore
The appointment of Rachida Dati, investigated for corruption and recommended by former President Sarkozy, to the Ministry of Culture is perhaps the only flaw in the new French Government. But to say that it is the sign of Attal's turn to the right sounds excessive.…
The incredible parliamentary abstention of Schlein's Democratic Party on military aid to Ukraine infuriates the reformist wing of the party and the former foreign affairs manager Lia Quartapelle does not tell them: "Elly doesn't put her heart into it"
The American elections on November 5 will not only serve to choose a President but to decide between democracy and authoritarianism - The growth of support for Trump is a nightmare not only for America but for the whole world and…
Giorgetti recognizes in the Chamber that "the ESM would have been useful to us" but glosses over the crucial point: after the rejection of the ESM wanted by Salvini and Meloni, Italy is no longer reliable on a European level and is more alone
Salvini and the Brothers of Italy try to justify the rejection of the ESM by trampling on reality but unfortunately our country will pay the price
Ruocco also distances herself from Beppe Grillo and approaches Meloni: the crazy "one is worth one" rule has finally become a heresy, but a little too late
Meloni and Schlein's Sunday rallies really couldn't have been emptier than this: not an idea of the future and no concrete proposal. Only controversy and specious attacks. Both bear the responsibility of enveloping the future of Italy...
Trump warms up his engines for the Republican primaries and does so by attacking migrants with one shot after another that turns his possible return to the US Presidency into a nightmare
The leader of the Five Star Movement has drawn up in "la Repubblica" a list of proscription for Prime Minister Meloni for a purge of the most controversial figures in the Government, but one name is surprisingly missing from the list: that of Minister Lollobrigida, the "brother-in-law of Italy ".…
The Government is once again postponing the parliamentary approval of the ESM, irritating its European partners and giving a blow to the credibility of our country. But the showdown with Brussels is near and the meeting on the 18th on the Pact of…
The right-wing controversies against the appointment of Paola Concia as President of the Commission for school relations after the horrible femicide of poor Giulia Cecchettin scare the Minister of Education Valditara who backtracks and cancels the appointments
Incomprehensible and inconceivable the No of the Democratic Party Schlein's tendency towards the liberalization of electricity which Europe considers a "milestone" - A move of pure populism which in this case brings the Democratic Party dangerously close to Salvini's demagogic theses
The gaffe of the Minister of Agriculture, Lollobrigida, the "brother-in-law of Italy, who stops a Rome-Naples Frecciarossa late to get off at Ciampino dangerously resembles the outbursts of Andrea Giambruno, the prime minister's former partner who kicked him out on two feet. Sooner or…
Elon Musk's aberrant anti-Semitism is more unforgivable than his latest industrial failures: from Starship to Twitter. The racist drift of the Tesla founder is incredible
After criticizing the amoral familism of the center-left from the opposition benches, the right opens a new but no less disgusting season of Parentopoli. As demonstrated by the repeated cases of appointments and hiring in companies or public bodies of children and...
Beppe Grillo's antics hosted by Fabio Fazio on Nove was an example of the worst that TV can offer when it only chases the audience without any regard for the quality of the programs

Far from being a mediator between Hamas and Israel, the Turkish Sultan is recklessly leaning in favor of terrorists - Draghi did not hesitate to define him as "a dictator" and the facts confirm this
The November 4 demonstration in defense of the West is neither timely nor credible: it puts public order at risk and contradicts the government's prudent line on Israel and Ukraine. He who declared himself a fan of Putin and anti-European is…
It is grotesque that the football betting fever revolves around an ambiguous character like Fabrizio Corona and that the TV channels invite him every evening by shelling out a lot of money which in the case of Rai is public.
The idiocies of General Vannacci were not enough, for a few evenings we have also had to watch on TV the bizarre dramas of the self-styled ambassador Elena Basile and her idiocies about Israel which we really don't feel the need for
The words of the leader of the French populist left, Jean-Luc Melenchon, who justifies Hamas's terrorist assault on Israel by pharisaically putting the violence on the same level and pretending to forget that the aggressor has a name and his name is Hamas, are unseemly.
Taxis have become a very rare commodity but their lack is irrefutable proof that they are few and that it is time to multiply licenses with adequate compensation or to recognize full rights for Uber and NCC
The Prime Minister, pressured by American finance, removed the controversial rules on the Board of Directors list and increased voting rights in listed companies from the Capital Bill, leaving the Roman builder and publisher with a handful of flies in his hand
Elly Schlein thinks of overturning the party form of the Democratic Party by electing local secretaries through consultations open not only to members but also to external militants according to the gazebo model. But if this is the case, why should a sympathizer…
What's happening to Meloni? She is no longer the pro-Draghi prime minister of the first months at Palazzo Chigi but why? It is the ghosts of the past and the competition on Salvini's right that push her towards shores that risk isolating her...
The harsh reality of the endless landings of migrants shatters the demagoguery of the right and Meloni must begin to open his eyes while Salvini and Le Pen continue the waltz of demagogy, racism and populism
The French Juventus champion, accused of doping, will ask for counter-analysis to defend himself but however this sad story ends he is no longer the mature boy he once was and his light-heartedness is inconceivable
Faced with the fibrillations of the taxi drivers' lobby, Minister Salvini does not seem able to support the Piave line of 20% double licenses and citizens will be condemned to the usual long queues before getting on a…
The union fires and does so using the provisions of the Jobs Act which it would like to abolish: paradoxical. But the funny thing is that the Democratic Party risks following the same path
Salvini is the deputy prime minister and the leader of the second government party and his invitation to Pontida to Le Pen is an insult not only to the reputation of the Meloni government but of Italy itself
The prime minister has almost all the TV information on her side and an important part of the newspapers - It happened like this even when the left governed and RAI dominated but with a fundamental difference: then RAI was counterbalanced by the networks...
Gone are the days when Segolene Royal was a hope of the French socialists: now the lady wants to stand as a candidate in the European elections with the populist Melenchon under the banner of sovereignty who sympathizes with Putin and hates Zelensky

Faced with the blustering of Musk and Zuckerberg about an epic martial arts clash in Italy, it would have been enough for the Minister of Culture, Sangiuliano, to have asked them: "But, instead of thinking about goliardic events, why don't you pay taxes to…
The government's surprising blitz on the banks will cause savers to lose money but above all it will cause Italy to lose credibility in the eyes of the world
The Government announces a tax on the extra profits of the banks but is frightened by the threats of a strike by the powerful taxi driver lobby and limits the granting of new licenses. After so many announcements only hot cloths
On the tax reform it is right to suspend judgment because only the legislative decrees expected within 2 years will define its true identity but the Government deserves a flat rejection on the parliamentary mess on the assets
Divorce between Action and IV and division of the parliamentary groups. Renzi certainly has his responsibilities, but in recent times Calenda has changed his mind often and willingly and has appeared as the pickaxer of the Third Pole

Prime Minister Meloni's failure to invite Macron and Scholz to the Rome conference on migrants is a childish spite that can cost Italy dearly in the face of the heavy dossiers that are on the table in Brussels and which…
Antics of the Five Stars on public funding for parties: first they open to its reintroduction but then they immediately reverse. The virus of populism is hard to defeat
Despite the risk of losing a lot of money and ending up victims of thefts and scams, crypto-currency activities continue to fascinate Italians and especially the under 40s. The warnings of the Bank of Italy are recurring but not…

An evening at MAXXI with Sgarbi and Morgan turns into a case: profanity, sexism, vulgarity. But the new president does not react and protests are unleashed
Who doesn't remember Meloni and Salvini's fierce criticisms of General Figliuolo during Covid amidst the applause of the No Vax? But to block Bonaccini's way now even Figliuolo is good on the right: luckily the General ...
The debacle in Molise is yet another confirmation that for the Democratic Party, the pursuit of the Five Stars only leads to distortion and defeat. If the Democratic Party does not decide to clearly say what it wants and only then to look for…
Seven years after the British referendum, the numbers mercilessly nail Brexit to the most blatant of failures. Other than more wealth, Brexit has brought less growth, more inflation and more poverty to the British. But where have the leaders gone…

Elly Schlein's main sponsor defends the new secretary after the electoral debacle but seems to ignore that the vagueness of the contents of the current Pd does not even remotely foreshadow an alternative to the Meloni government

The closure of Italia Sicura for the prevention of environmental breakdowns decided by the Conte 1 government out of spite against the Renzi government that had established it is unforgivable
