Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has a problem with one man. And strangely enough, this man is not Matteo Salvini; The Northern League leader, despite his constant activism, does not seem to worry his ally too much: always far from the psychological threshold of 10 percent, he vacillates between a demonstration in defense of Western values, a bridge over the Bosphorus and a nuclear weapon. Power plant in Milan. In short, it looks pretty harmless when viewed this way.

Those embarrassing explosions

No, the prime minister has a problem at home. And this is not a political metaphor. And the name of her problem is Andrea Giambruno: The man with whom she shares her private life is the father of her daughter. The Mediaset-employed journalist has once again hit the headlines with some embarrassing outbursts to say the least (which happens with some frequency now…). In the videos that “Striscia la Notizia” sends to the small screen, Italy’s boyfriend, looking a little chilly—perhaps due to the first autumn malaises and the slight drop in temperatures—hops around the studio cracking five-to-five jokes. dressing room with actions unbecoming of a lady.

Now some may object to statements such as “enough political correctness”, “nothing else can be said” and similar statements. Objection accepted: Education cannot be a criterion, especially when commenting on “stolen” images. And Giambruno, when the camera light turns red, does not say rudeness or make rude gestures: at best, he gets into trouble for more or less serious outbursts that evoke satire and force him to apologize in the next episode. It is normal that this is the case, because the partner of Italy’s most powerful woman does a job that makes her constantly the center of attention in every sense.

Advances for colleagues

The problem is that in one of the clips broadcast on Antonio Ricci’s program, which is also supposed to be a “friendly” channel (we can also discuss this “trip” for a long time…), the presenter clearly calls it “provocative”. He flatters her with novice anti-Chinese harmonic comments about the color of his jacket and even confesses his intellectual ambition: “You’re so smart, why haven’t we met before?” he says, stroking it. hair. The more serious problem is that in the report published the next day, Giambruno addresses his other colleagues in decidedly harsher terms, words that go far beyond the previous wink. Objectively unacceptable remarks in this context.

In light of the facts, I think attention should be turned to the possible lock change on the Giambruno – Meloni house. Because if it is true that one should never put a finger between husband and wife, it is equally true that Giambruno has now become a new concern for the woman who, due to the facts, must lead the country out of the economic crisis at a very delicate moment. We say this every day. This is a situation where the Prime Minister should not be subjected to more pressure, even psychological, from those next to him. A person who seems to want to ride the wave to prove himself in his field: a completely legitimate desire, but one that risks negatively affecting the lives of millions of people.

public and private

Because yes, if Giorgia Meloni is likely to be outraged by the images and sounds stolen during these hours, she has every reason to be: every woman and every man would be angry if they saw such scenes. What is at stake here is not only the relationship of the couple, which will be managed in the privacy of private life, but also the public image of a woman in the institutions called “traditional family”. that a father would never act foolish towards another woman by touching her “package” in the fruit and vegetable aisle of Esselunga) formed part of the consensus; A political leader who inevitably suffers greatly from his friend’s now obvious desire to come forward.

At the opening of the program “Waiting for Viva Rai”, after the first report from “Striscia la Notizia”, ​​Fiorello had simulated a telephone conversation with the prime minister: “Giorgia – he said – you are still a little angry ‘Striscia’s report yesterday? But can I tell you? These days you can get divorced within 24 hours.” It’s an invitation I almost consider attending, because in this case there wouldn’t even be a need for divorce: as everyone knows, the two are not married.

If I were Giorgia Meloni’s friend, I would have thought that a few months ago the columnists who covered the fact that the undersigned was the only journalist the prime minister followed on Facebook (I’ll tell you the secret, it’s a mistake), told her boyfriend the classic “take a break to think” “I would recommend that we get together again, perhaps a few years later, and be more in love than before, and discuss over 500 worth of money within the warm walls of the house. and the unpopular laws the next technical government will pass.
