Elly Schlein, do you read Dario Franceschini? Reviving the suspicion that the “independent” candidacy for the leadership of the Democratic Party of the vice-president of Emilia-Romagna responds to the usual game of currents of the Nazarene is Dagospia. “It cost Franceschini dearly, motivated by his wife – says a background story published on Roberto D’Agostino’s website – having decided to support Elly because her current, Area dem, was broken. The former soul of the DS, represented by Piero Fassino, did not like Dario’s choice to give himself hand and foot to a young woman who, to this day, does not even have a Democratic Party card.”
“Final result? Franceschini’s troops were practically halved…” writes Dago. In short, nothing new under the democratic sun. Deputy Renziano Francesco Bonifazi increases the dose: “Seeing Schlein, candidate for the leadership of the Democratic Party against the currents, but surrounded by the men or women of Franceschini, is really beautiful. A true outsider”.
Yesterday Michela Di Biase, deputy and wife of Franceschini, in an interview with Repubblica said that Elly Schlein “is a candidate without having sponsors behind her. The vulgate of a Schlein piloted by the leaders is wrong. determined and uses a fresh and understandable language for everyone”. Perhaps behind the “suspects” is the fact that she is a woman: “It’s hard to accept that one of us can impose herself independently of men. I don’t think Bonaccini was ever asked who was behind her”. Regardless of genre, many don’t seem to believe Di Biase’s version.
