Clockwork Justice? Salvini and Lega under cross-attack

(by Massimiliano D'Elia) Government at loggerheads. Beyond 30 are the reasons for confrontation, including autonomy, flat tax, justice reform, safety decree bis, #Tav, major works, appointments, #Defense, etc., etc. Now, the issue of migrants and #Sea is a benchmark. Watch that would like to dock in Italy in Lampedusa.

Salvini on the Sea Watch: «If the magistrates want to investigate me, they will do the same. They were first in Libyan waters and then in Maltese waters, but putting at risk the lives of immigrants on board they want to get to Italy at all costs. These are not rescuers but smugglers and will be treated as such».

However, #Salvini authorizes the landing of 18 "vulnerable" subjects: 7 children, many mothers, 3 fathers and a migrant with serious health problems.

Salvini also said «There is no Prime Minister or #Cinquestelle minister who holds, in Italy the traffickers of human beings no longer arrive».

Immediate reply from the Presidency of the Council: «The premier has never given orders. As foreseen by article 95 of the Constitution, he directs the general policy of the Government and is responsible for it. And coordinates the activity of the ministers. Of all the ministers, none excluded».

Also Luigi #Di Maio he said on the matter: «His arrogance is reminiscent of Renzi, of men alone in command we have already had and we do not miss him».

Renzi called into question by the Facebook profile: «I am happy to be always in their thoughts, even if as an Italian I would prefer that they think about things to do».

The League wants to bring the security decree bis to the next council of ministers to anemize the work of NGOs at sea, with very heavy sanctions impossible to sustain, and on the other hand to modify the navigation code by stripping the Ministry of Infrastructure of competences in the field of " transit and stop »of ships in territorial waters. From the Interior Ministry then they affirm that "the homework has been done" and the text is unassailable from a technical and regulatory point of view, so it can go to the Council of Ministers on Monday.

Even if the M5S, supported by the Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, they want to postpone the measure to after the 26 May elections.  

Giuseppe #Conte, Meanwhile,  Italy said "he has always respected the fundamental rights of people and has never allowed anyone to die on our initiative».

The 5Stelle, therefore, label the League as «aTraits of embarrassing political schizophrenia»Given that for the case Eighteen to the Minister of the Interior«the collegial management of the Government was fine "and now instead" he maintains that nobody should give him orders».

«The President of the Council, says Di Maio, has all my and the government's support. A bullying that increases when the League is in trouble with corruption scandals».

Therefore, the friction between the two majority parties continues, which hint at one and only way after the elections: “changing the current political imbalance”. So many are the disputes that the President of the Republic, Sergio #Mattarella will have to face in the aftermath of the elections. The only aspect that arouses some "thought" is the fervent activity of the judiciary in finding and bringing out "now" all the very small and irrelevant "in" of the League both centrally and locally. Perhaps because there is, in perspective, an approach of the M5S to the left?
