It is the longest day for the Draghi government with the premier’s communications at 9.30 in the Senate, the vote of confidence in the evening, and the reply on Thursday in the House.
“After the government crisis caused by the 5 Stars – Matteo Salvini opens the dances on social media – after days of threats and provocations, with dozens of parliamentarians who change parties to save their seats and with a Pd that insists on talking about ius soli, ddl Zan and electoral law, instead of putting salaries, bills and work at the center, today we decide. And the League, united and compact, will decide only and only for the good and the future of Italy “.

The parties, starting with the 5 Star Movement, are waiting for a signal from the speech that Mario Draghi will make in Parliament. And at that point the premier will listen to everyone’s positions to see if that new “political fact” has matured that allows us to rediscover “political viability” without which there is the risk of marking the end of the government of national unity.
The situation is so uncertain that, it is argued in parliamentary circles, the Prime Minister is preparing two versions of the speech. Both decided and detailed but with two different endings. Therefore, the decisive day is not even the fifth day. Yet, it is observed in the knots in Parliament, something has moved. Under the radar remain the fears, of all, to remain with the “match in hand” and be faced with the responsibility of having put an end to the very broad agreements.
The premier worked on the speech until the end. And he would have prepared “a text A and a text B”, one to say rest and one to say goodbye, comment some senators. A hypothesis that he does not find confirmation at Palazzo Chigi. But for sure Draghi will explain the reasons that brought him one step away from goodbye and will claim the hard work done in 17 months to deal with the pandemic, and then the war and its economic consequences. And he will go back to indicating the priorities for the country. He will be up to the political forces, this is the orientation that has emerged so far, to give answers and give guarantees on the real desire to continue to support the executive with unity and responsibility. Otherwise the outcome can only be that of resignation. Against which the Quirinale could only take note that there are no longer the conditions to dissolve the Chambers and go to early elections in the autumn (the date circled in red would be October 2), according to some without even making further consultations.
