Pd, Illy devastates Schlein: “A disgrace, it will make the left lose many votes”

Riccardo Illy, former CEO of the well-known coffee company, was also mayor of Trieste and governor of Friuli Venezia-Giulia, supported by the left. And the businessman insists on beating up Elly Schlein, the new leader of the Democratic Party, during an interview with Corriere della Sera: “I’m not happy with Schlein, I think he’s a disaster for the Democratic Party, for the center-left and also for Giorgia Meloni, who still doesn’t know. The majority leader needs a strong opposition, not a weak and fragmented one, otherwise internal rivals will grow stronger. Schlein will cause the PD to lose many votes. I find it surreal that passers-by have chosen. The right secretary was Stefano Bonaccini”.

In the conversation with the newspaper there is also an excerpt about Berlusconi da Illy: “I acted out of a spirit of service, he because he felt threatened by the communists. He said as much in 1993, inviting me to a meeting whose purpose didn’t become clear to me until the following year. I consider myself a liberal. To me he was an oligopolist, although he had the merit of surrounding himself with good people. I am thinking of Antonio Martino, for example”.
