Roberto Vannacci leads Futuro Nazionale and attacks the centre-right coalition

A year ago these days he organized the birth of his teams throughout Italy, while the first nervousness was mounting in the League about his "vannaccination" strategy. Today Roberto Vannacci is the leader of the most discussed party of the moment, and it is no coincidence that he has the role of final guest of one of the most followed summer events. And he takes the opportunity to point out that there is "nervousness" around Futuro Nazionale's moves. Perhaps also because it is the eve of the first electoral test.

Albeit on a small scale, the by-elections for a seat as a deputy in Reggio Calabria risk having a significant weight because Vannacci has fielded a candidate, Domenico Giannetta, who has supported Forza Italia, just as one of the latest polls, signed by BiDiMedia, in recent days has recorded Futuro Nazionale overtaking Antonio Tajani's party (at 8%) (at 7.3%). "We - underlined Vannacci, guest via video link of the La Piazza event by Affaritaliani.it, in Ceglie Messapica - are participating with a very strong candidate, especially from Reggio, the centre-right alliance proposes a Roman, who has only seen the Strait on a postcard".

The courtship attempts probably aren't over. "As far as the national future is concerned, it cannot be my future", assures the former minister Daniela Santanchè, explaining that she does not know Vannacci personally and that she saw him "a few mornings training in the park in front of his house", in Versilia. Even just the hypothesis of an opening to National Future outlined by FdI deputy minister Edmondo Cirielli in recent days has brought to light some embarrassment in the coalition led by Giorgia Meloni. The prime minister's line so far has been that alliances cannot be considered with those in Parliament who vote against the government, and that the growth of the Vannaccians "is an operation to favor the left".

Then the general tries to overturn the narrative. "Ours is an authentic, proud, right-wing party that does not negotiate principles, values ​​and ideals: they are quite close - he observes - to those that the centre-right alliance had at the beginning of the mandate and then faded over time. We want the right-wing force to govern the country, but this centre-right alliance applies an unfashionable centre-left policy". And therefore, his conclusion is that "those who want the left to win" must be sought in the government majority.

For Carlo Calenda "Vannacci has been an avowed fascist and a spokesperson for Putin for many years. His inclusion in an electoral and government coalition would require an extraordinary and coordinated response from all democratic political forces. He certainly would not shy away from action". And to the leader of Action they reply harshly from Futuro Nazionale: "Insult everyone just to get a seat."

To Matteo Salvini, who had mocked the hypothesis of multiple voting for large families contained in the FnV programme, Vannacci replies directly: "Read the programme, if it is based only on headlines from certain press you risk making some mistakes. There is only one food for thought - he points out -, we have dusted off a proposal made, not by a dictator, but by the economist Luigi Campiglio and the former minister Maurizio Sacconi about thirty years ago".
