There is a new case fueling internal tensions in the Democratic Party: the verdict on the work of Giorgia Meloni. The spy belli was born from the words of first secretary Enrico Letta and then the primary candidate Stefano Bonaccini. The two dem administrators are essentially “accused” of painting a very bland portrait of the prime minister and not conforming to what Pd has preached so far. But let’s go in order.
for New York Times Dem’s current secretary said Meloni is doing “better than we expected” in economic matters. Not just. According to Letta, NYT reported, Giorgia Meloni would stop her aggressive stance towards the EU by deciding to “follow the rules” and thus avoid “making mistakes”. “The truth is, he’s strong,” the Democratic Party secretary added. “On a full honeymoon with no alternative in the majority and divided opposition.”
Bonaccini’s words came during the Coffee break at La7. “Giorgia Meloni is not a fascist, she is talented, she has ideas that are far from mine, she will have to prove she is ready for it, they left a few months ago. Criticism must be restrained, but it can be done. I still want to see what happens in Europe when everything is settled”.
Orlando: “There’s a problem.” Provenzano attacks Bonaccini
However, there are those within the Democratic Party who do not agree with this. “Something’s wrong,” began former Attorney General Andrea Orlando on social media. Who, then, argues: “Comrades and friends, let’s agree. If we solemnly argue that the budget maneuver promotes smuggling, does not help the real economy and rewards rents, hits the poor and does not solve the wage crisis” .
And again Orlando continues: “If we say that the NGO decree is against the Constitution, international agreements and the sense of humanity. If we say that government officials under the Prime Ministry are held responsible for serious behavior and its use is unacceptable.” institutions against the opposition”. In short, the dem base asks, indirectly addressing both Letta and Bonaccini: “How can you say that they (what) can do or are better than we expected at the same time?”
A tweet by the party’s deputy secretary, Peppe Provenzano, targeting Bonaccini in particular, also inflames the debate. “The Meloni government is the worst government ever. Is there anyone in the Democratic Party who doesn’t think so? It’s a government of inequalities, how can one call it ‘talented’, ‘criticism-measured’? to build the alternative,” says the former Minister of the South, who is in line with Schlein’s candidacy. “The primaries serve this. Or at least to make it clear”.
