“A mockery.” What does it place in the M5s symbol – Time

Shortly before the official filing with the Ministry of the Interior, Giuseppe Conte previews from the studio of In Mezz’ Ora on Rai3 the symbol with which M5s will run in the European elections. The hashtag #peace is clearly visible at the bottom of the sign. “Today the symbol for the European elections is registered at the Ministry of the Interior. As soon as this broadcast ends I will rush to the Interior Ministry to present the symbol of the M5S, which testifies to our commitment to peace”. said the president of the M5S interviewed by Monica Maggioni.

A jab at Elly Schlein might not be missed, who not only is running for the European elections herself, but who should put her name on the symbol of the Democratic Party. A choice that has only one precedent, when the secretary was Walter Veltroni, and which is creating evident discontent in the democratic galaxy. “I will not be a candidate” in the European elections and “my name will not be in the symbol”, says Conte who stings the dems: “In our community it is unthinkable that you ask for votes and are not consistent. It is a mockery”, he states on the announcement of Schlein’s candidacy.

Returning to the M5s symbol, Conte explains that “we have lists of peace builders, but not only that. From Tridico to Antoci up to Biggeri, and today I also announce Carolina Morace: a sportswoman and footballer that we have all admired and appreciated. She has beaten many sporting records, but I’m interested in the person”, he said revealing the name of the former Italian footballer: “Not only a bomber, but also civic commitment, and then she was the first female coach of a men’s team, the Viterbese, in addition to fights once morest the gender gap. And on Bari: “We almost always support PD candidates, but in this case ours was an act required in the face of an objective condition. We cannot go below certain levels of transparency”, she said. The wide field has become a battlefield.
