2018 elections: the 5 Stars movement will run without Beppe Grillo?

In recent weeks, the rumors about a presumed have become increasingly recurrent in the pre-electoral climate schism in the 5 Stars MovementThese Indiscretions would paint two internal factions: on the one hand the Five Star Movement of the origins, the vision of Gianroberto Casaleggio and Beppe Grillo (more and more impatient for the new levers and the new regulation), the other Luigi Di Maio, Junior Casaleggio and the new rules.

According to internal sources it would seem to be linked precisely to this new position of the historical leader and his faithful followers the same decision of the most faithful Alessandro Di Battista not to reapply to the policies of March.

A removal of Grillo supported by the content revolution that will undergo the comic blog in the coming months, revolution announced by Beppe Grillo himself in his speech at the end of the year:"While the blog of the stars will always deal with local and international politics, then our parliamentarians and our beneficiaries to the nation, our spokespersons, the blog Beppe Grillo, or me, I will go a bit around the world with videos, conferences. I went to see some conferences, in fact, on smartcity, we'll talk about robotics, we'll talk about artificial intelligence, internet of things. "

A first sign of a possible separation had been leaked by the Casaleggio Associates in times not suspicious through the publication of the new regulation of the Movement which, for the first time, would foresee a possible farewell to the movement of its historical guarantor.
Nothing to declare on the subject by the internal organs of the Movement that indeed, through its leader Luigi di Maio, on a visit to Turin, they were quick to deny: "Someone hopes Grillo will step aside, but he will always be with us, it is a great resource, the greatest we have. The Movement does not change, it will be with us in this campaign and remains the guarantor. "

No official abandonment in short, but the fact that Grillo for months does not take part in the election campaign, which is detaching his blog from that of the Movement, and that his position is becoming increasingly withdrawn from the world pentastellato busy as it will be with his upcoming theatrical engagements (not negligible detail Grillo will be back in Rome on 23 and 24 February, in the week-end before the vote), all seem unequivocal elements of an election campaign that, in all likelihood, will not see him among the protagonists.

Could this be the sign of a 5 Star Movement finally considered by the Genoese comedian mature enough to be able to walk alone?
