– Bad news for Olaf Scholzbusy preventing a Unicredit to buy the German bank. According to a survey, Friedrich Merz convinces more Germans of the ability to revive the economy than the current Chancellor. The problem isn’t just this, it’s all in the numbers. We are not talking about a gap of a few percentage points, but about catastrophic numbers: the survey reveals that 47% of citizens have confidence in Merz, only 16% in Scholz and 37% in neither. Translated by turning the statistics: 84% of Germans no longer trust Olaf on the crucial point for Germany, namely the economy.
– Only them United States they can give us the wonder of a Republican candidate caught exchanging steamy chats about transsexual porn films.
– Bring on Nine the copy of The Usual Unknowns and hoping to achieve the same result was obviously utopian. What is certain is that after the press’s trumpeting of the drum for the excellent Amadeusconsidered like a TV god, the paltry 3.6% garnered in the second episode of Who knows who he is it might sound like an alarm bell. More than for him, for those who covered him with gold and for those who, read the opposition, predicted the death of public service for this farewell. The litmus test, pardon the pun, will be in Sanremo: if Carlo Accounts will maintain the same level of ratings (and above all of advertising revenue) it will mean that perhaps it was the format that was “winning”, rather than the host. We will see.
– Now, everything is fine. On Imane Khelif the debate in the first few days was embarrassing, ok. But reading in the press that Khelif’s fans shouted “you’re beautiful” at Milan Fashion Week is a bit much. The new Miss Italia is beautiful, not Imane. Who will be an excellent boxer but, don’t worry, not exactly as attractive as Elisabetta Canalis. Otherwise, the undersigned can also perceive himself as George Clooney.
– The defeat of Beppe Room it all lies in UEFA’s decision not to have the 2027 Champions League final played in Milan. A city like Milan, the engine of the Italian economy, which boasts of being the most European in the Bel Paese, cannot debate for five years (five! ) whether to build a stadium, whether to demolish it, whether to renovate it or whether to do it elsewhere. Come on. In Rome we can also understand, but in Milan not. And delays come with a price. Dear. It is said that the Champions League final will generate revenue of 100 million euros. Now lost.
– Hillary Clinton he throws himself into conspiracy theories, or has confidential information not known to us mere mortals. Says the former candidate: “There will be a surprise in October to derail ‘s race Kamala Harris”. Of the two, one: either it is true, and then Hillary should present a detailed complaint; or just guess, and at that point it looks a lot like the fake news that the Democrats accuse Trump of spreading.
– Someone bring the salts against fainting. Here we need to revive the whole narrative of the Italian left, which he had tried to do Kamala Harris the new star to cling to and who is finding himself with a handful of flies in his hand. Have you heard the latest? After presenting herself as a gunslinger ready to shoot thieves who enter her house, a move she hopes will make her rise in the polls, according to CNN the Democratic candidate for the White House is planning a visit to the border between the United States and Mexico. And not to invite Mexicans or South American immigrants to come to the USA, as Roberto Speranza, Fratoianni and associates would perhaps dream. But rather to steal ground on the migrant issue from that skunk – they say – Donald Trump who continues to be at the top of the polls on this front. Harris, to whom Biden had assigned the migration dossier, without obtaining great results, is pursuing her policies along two lines: on the one hand, to differentiate herself from The Donald on the repatriation front (and here, there is: something left-wing every now and then he has to say it); on the other, present, as it has already done, a package of stricter measures for border control. And this is anything but a welcome position for those in Italy who have not yet realized that in the meantime France, Germany, Great Britain and Holland have made a U-turn on the doors open to all.
– The little girl who got pregnant a 14 years old for having participated in the “sex challenge” is horrifying. But not so much for the fact that at that age young people start having sex without a condom at random, nor for the absurd rules that foresee the defeat of those who become pregnant. But rather for the fact that the young woman’s lawyer, according to what was leaked, said that the 14-year-old is now upset because… she lost the challenge. Are we sure we want to let you foster the baby that is about to be born?
– However, the economic data says that GDP has grown, even if slightly. But above all, the debt/GDP ratio has fallen and so has the deficit. There is no need to open champagne, but with other prime ministers they would have already prepared the Pope’s chair for the lap of honour.
– I’m sorry about Carlo Cottarelliwho is often right but no one listens to him. Italy’s problem is not finding treasures for the budget law or imagining bonuses: here we need to cut the costs of public spending. And it can’t be that hard to find 15 billion in the midst of a trillion in annual outflows. No?
– After the excellent analysis of the chief prosecutor of Venice at the opening of the trial against Philip Turetta (“it is not a trial against feminicides, but against the individual who must answer for the crimes he is accused of”), now the associations feminists they cry. Says the president of Differenza Donna, one of the five excluded as civil parties: “Femicide is not a simple individual crime, but is linked to cultural reasons”. Mistake. No man is guilty of the murder of Giulia Cecchettin, but only the perpetrator of that crime. Cultural conditioning has nothing to do with it, as the Venetian prosecutor rightly pointed out. Praise heaven.
– Gaffe makes no difference Keir Starmer That,
during his speech, defined as disappointing by many, he literally asked for the return of “the sausages from Gaza”. In practice he exchanged two similar-sounding words (sausages for hostages). And social media punished him.
