Political crisis in Italy, part II

Something's Moving in the Italian Political scenario. 
All the Democratic forces that belongs to different parties feel the isolation of Italy in the world and are would love to form a new government that reduces tension in the country and in the international community.
However such a government should be based on a programme. A politic programme, not a contract that define a commercial government not a political one.
To form this type of government, based on a vast majority of MPs currently in Parliament, Italy needs time and should carefully manage the reaction of the political forces that may be excluded. 
This implies that an exectional effort should be made to include all the parties in this deal, even partially, so that no one is really against this government, that has only one scope: to relaunch the Italian economy and the political presence Internationally.

Stay tuned

Ferragosto day, hot for politician in Italy

During  Ferragosto the Political situation in Italy Is always quiet ; all people including politician are at the Seaside, but this time the situation is different.

Today, it is time to send messages through interviews or Twitter so that after the break and before the speech of President Conte next week before the Senate, it is possible to find a way to exit from the current enpasse in which politics in Italy is.

I see 2 possibilities: the first One is that General election is called in October this year; the second is that the election is called in eighteen months from now.

There is no possibility that the crisis will last longer: or there is a new  majority in the Parliament or there will be a new general election.

The first scenario means that a new program, even a light one, should be in place and voted by the Parliament. The new programme should be presented by a president of the council and ministers that should be agreed with the new majority parties. The only incentive for this scenario to become real  - and it is very strong - is that MPs would like to maintain their current position. Not really a political agreement but only the willingness to stay in office as long as it is possible. Please note that this scenario do not means that this new government could not implement important and efficient reform. The other way round apply in Italy in this case. Often.

Stay tuned and stay well!

How to read the political crisis in Italy

The new italian Political Crisis has been different compared to the previous one since The Beginning.

First of all the Timing.  The Crisis has been Opened just before an Holiday  period started. Where Only in the so called first Republic the politician did so, but in very different context. In fact there was only one governing party - the Christian democratic - that was the problem and the Solution at the same time. With the opposition party, the Comunist part, in a position to limit some excess and creating discipline.

Today the situation is different. The evolution of the Political situation is Linked to a single person, not to a party. The opposition is not there to limit or control but it is trying to find its route.

Second point. No external help. This time Italy is alone to solve its problem. As the rest of the world has other problems to deal with.

Third point. The old political generation is still there not so powerful as in the past, but still in a position to influence the result. This is a good news.

Keep in mind these points and may be you will understand what is going on. May be you may immagine how it will end.
