Giuseppe Conte he would have liked to buy them with a handful of euros.

The Dignity Income, this was invented for Calabria by the leader of the 5 Star Movement and his companion, the father of the citizen’s income, Pasquale Tridico. An “easy” way (according to them) to get votes. In quantity! “We will win and I will govern Calabria” Tridico had said, sure he had played the ace up his sleeve.

Instead of votes, however, they got a good slap in the face. They thought they could buy the Calabrians by promising meager pocket money. To everyone! Yes, to “all employable”. Not only that, Tridico (who has no knowledge of Calabria at all) had promised to cancel the car tax as well. A desperate move that, frankly, could have been avoided. An electoral campaign at Cetto The Whateverfrom film. Avalanche of errors, one after the other. From the provinces to the names of the villages.

Only a small group of Calabrians believe in the promises of Cinquestelle. Fortunately.

It seems that Tridic has already bought a ticket for Brussels where he will continue his mandate as a European parliamentarian.

Ah, then there are those who say “the wind is changing”. But where? Not in Calabria, because no one has a nose ring there.
