The reference to memory is there. With due proportions, because just imagining the legendary secretary of the PCI with white sneakers would be pure blasphemy. Yet even Angelo Bonelli, who together with the dark Nicola Fratoianni holds Elly Schlein in his arms, from afar can remind one of Roberto di Vergaio, if it weren’t for his messy hair. The photo taken in Genoa gets more likes among Nazareno supporters than the other image of the week. Namely, the embrace during the favorite match between another Tuscan (with a more tidy hairdo) and the secretary of the PD. Pure superstition, Matteo Renzi and Elly Schlein were celebrating a disallowed goal, which as a political metaphor is not among the most propitious. The kiss of “Judas” as one militant railed, where Judas is in any case a gentleman who has already outdone Enrico Letta and Giuseppe Conte. The secretary of the Democratic Party knows well that a large part of her party does not look favorably on an alliance with Renzi. That is why she is trying to cool down the controversy but at the same time she is going ahead renewing her “blessing” for the newfound understanding with Matteo: “If we also politicize football we are finished, I say this in the interest of the Italians”, she says in Perugia where she is collecting signatures against Autonomy. Then she adds: “We are and were yesterday, we will be tomorrow, stubbornly united to favor a broad convergence on shared projects and credible candidacies. This is what we are committed to doing throughout Italy and also in Umbria”.
The certainty is that Schlein wants to keep everyone together, certainly including Fratoianni and Bonelli. Translated into petty politics, which is less glamorous but more substantial, patrimonial without ifs and buts, judicial via uber alles, Born with an eyedropper, let’s hear from Cecilia Strada first. All without vetoes, except that they will be the ones to decide, in the business lounge. A bonsai re-edition of the central committee: Elly decides, Angelo “Benigni” lifts her up. For the other standing places, “make yourselves comfortable, change is not a gala dinner”. Now we are at light-hearted beach soccer, a long game of the heart: the markings are set, we even hug each other for an offside. Without useless nastiness or reaction fouls (the usual Conte, excluded from all the shots, under special observation), because as Oronzo Canà preaches, who is not Ignazio La Russa, “we must be stubbornly united”. A simulation that coincides with the start of the signature collection for the referendum to repeal differentiated autonomy.
Elly, finally in a “pop” version, thanks to the dances with Annalisa, mocks from Perugia, reciting the script in pure “Schlein” style: “Giorgia Meloni’s law splits the country in two, increases the inequalities that the South and internal areas have already paid too much for, but it is a senseless reform for the North too”. Both Maria Elena Boschi and the inseparable Bonelli and Fratoianni respond from local markets; the shrewd Conte from Civitavecchia stands out at least for having chosen a location closer to the afternoon escape route. Then at sunset Elly reaches Cesena to crown Michele De Pascale, candidate to succeed Stefano Bonaccini in Emilia Romagna. After all, no one can deny themselves a seat in the “Central Committee”, especially not someone like Stefano, the challenger who has become the most loyal of collaborators.
