"Italy is back racing". Meloni closes Atreju and promises "a 2025 of reforms"

The dialectical clash with Elly Schlein who attacks the government on healthcare “like a broken record” and with “false arguments” (“You need the calculator”) and who “jams your tongue” when you pronounce the word Stellantis. But at the Atreju event (“A splendid edition”, he says from the stage, also thanking his sister Arianna, because – he underlines ironically – “in his eagerness to place friends and relatives and people he doesn’t know he found the time to organize it…”) the prime minister Giorgia Meloni for the first time he strikes especially upwards Maurizio Landini and up Romano Prodi. The first is guilty of “having used unprecedented tones” which “if we had used them the UN blue helmets would have arrived”, because the invitation of the secretary of the ICGL to social revolt, explains the Prime Minister, “is only because he has weak arguments” for “helping the left, certainly not the workers”.

The former Prime Minister, however, is brought into play because, according to the Chief Executive, like the Democratic Party secretary he predicted Italy’s isolation. “To his insults – he replies – I opened a bottle of better wine and toasted my health. Every patriot must be proud” of receiving the criticism of those who sold out the IRI and facilitated China’s entry into the WTO, the demonstration ” who knows a lot about obedience…”.

“From observers to models”

The Fdi party remains an opportunity for Giorgia Meloni to also remember the past of the right, that successful challenge “of a generation that fought “to overcome all prejudices” and break down “the ideological gates barred by the palace”. But it is also the moment when the Prime Minister he removes a few pebbles from his shoesagainst those who have rowed against our country which “from being observed has become a model”, trying – for example – “to cripple Fitto’s nomination” in Europe, “we are antithetical to the left, we exist to prove you wrong and amaze you”.

First of all, no division in the center-right, all the leaders of the alliance point out. The secretary of the League says so Matteo Salvini which also ‘books’ the next legislature, says the leader of Us Moderates Maurizio Lupi (“Diversity is wealth”), underlines the secretary of Forza Italia, Antonio Tajani who, in reaffirming “the 1994 pact” signed by Berlusconi with the objective of 51% in the next elections, underlines the strong bond of friendship which “however does not mean always saying yes”, “we can also discuss but in the moment of need” the important thing “is to find your friend, shoulder to shoulder to fight for the right values”. And the Prime Minister reiterates: “Everyone in the centre-right is aware of their responsibility. We will honor the task given to us until the last day. We will arrive unitedly until the end of the legislature and beyond”.

“The centers in Albania will work”

The aim is to complete the program, also on the topic of migrants: “The centers in Albania will work”, the prime minister is heated. Meloni, in underlining how the protocol signed with Tirana is creating a “school in half of Europe” because it also acts as a deterrent effect, announces that he will never give up, “at the cost of spending every night there” between now and the end of the legislature because “Stopping the initiative would be a great favor to the criminals.” The Prime Minister addresses those judges who have stopped the government’s move with “unreasonable sentences”, inviting them to question themselves about the consequences of their decisions. And it sends a clear message: “I want to fight the mafia and I ask the entire Italian state and respectable people” to do so, “I am not the enemy, I am a respectable person”.

The Prime Minister ranges from European issues (a change of direction is needed”) – announcing his resignation from the presidency of the conservative party to support the former Polish Prime Minister Morawiecki – to Italian ones. 2025 will be the year of reforms ( “They scare many but we will move forward”), from the premiership to differentiated autonomy to the separation of careers. And it will be the year in which the fight against bureaucracy will continue, to cut waste (“An efficient state means fewer taxes). and clientelism. Such a scenario can worry the left but not the citizens”). A mention of the measure, “we could have done more on minimum pensions” but certainly “we did better than the left”, in the future “we will reach one hundred euros”. And also at controversy over the safety bill against which singers and actors have also sided, it will end like Hollywood with Trump.

“Pure hearts and steady legs”

And speaking of the American president, he renews his best wishes for his victory over Joe Biden, “I am a right-wing woman, I have no difficulty in communicating with everyone if it serves Italy but, even more so, I am happy to do so” with the tycoon. “We respond with facts to the many birds of ill omen”, all those “who hope that we will put our personal destiny before that of the nation will once again be disappointed. And disappointing the left is our favorite sport”, says Prime Minister Meloni who returns to cite the results achieved by the executive, also at an international level, for “an Italy that has returned to racing”.

Finally, the motivational speech, the invitation addressed to ministers, to militants to get “under the oars”: “Ours is a mission. When the stakes are high there is no room for the selfishness of individuals. Be focused, ambitious , courageous, cultivate a desire for redemption and a passion for justice. Be worthy of the great nation you represent and the enormous responsibility it entails.” “An opportunity like the present one will not come back” – the Prime Minister’s input – “the opportunity is now and it does not allow uncertain steps and hesitations, because it needs certainties, pure hearts and firm legs. But I am certain that we are up to the task, Italy is up to the task.”
