Italy's premier designate, Giuseppe Conte, 53, told reporters after meeting the head of state Sunday evening that he had handed back his mandate for forming “the government of change" to president Mattarella. "I can assure you that I did my utmost to try to fulfill this task" he added.
*ITALY'S MATTARELLA: NO ONE CAN SAY I WAS OBSTACLE TO NEW GOVT *MATTARELLA: ONLY FIN MIN PROPOSAL WAS PROBLEMATIC *ITALY'S MATTARELLA SAYS AGREED TO ALL MINISTERS EXCEPT FIN MIN *ITALY'S MATTARELLA: WANTED MINISTER WHO WOULDN'T RISK EURO EXIT *MATTARELLA: EURO MEMBERSHIP FUNDAMENTAL FOR ITALY'S FUTURE
Mattarella, who is supposed to be impartial but appears to have been anything but in this case, and was tasked with naming the premier and ministers, earlier rejected the candidacy of economist Paolo Savona, 81, who has repeatedly urged the Italian government to plan for a euro-exit, and who has criticized what he says is German dominance over Europe.
As a result, and as League leader Salvini said, Italy is now set to vote again.
“I have agreed and accepted all the nominations, except that of the minister of economy,” Mattarella said in a somber, televised speech.
“I asked for that ministry an authoritative political figure from the coalition parties who was not seen as the supporter of a line that could provoke Italy’s exit from the euro,” he added.
League leader Matteo Salvini and 5-Star chief Luigi Di Maio responded angrily, saying the president was acting beyond the powers the constitution assigns to him.
“In a democracy, if we are still in democracy, there’s only one thing to do, let the Italians have their say,” Salvini said in a fiery speech to supporters in central Italy.
“I was informed of the request by the political parties to hold an early election. I will evaluate that request in the coming hours, and I will take an initiative,” Mattarella said.
After speaking, Mattarella summoned former International Monetary Fund senior official Carlo Cottarelli for a Monday morning meeting — an indication he may be considering asking him to head a government of unelected technocrats.
He would be a calming choice for the financial markets, who were spooked by Savona’s criticism of the euro and German economic policy.

>“Il presidente della Repubblica si è mantenuto nell’ambito delle sue prerogative sia in questi giorni e particolarmente nella giornata di oggi. L’ipotesi di una sua messa in stato d’accusa è completamente al di fuori della Costituzione”. A dirlo è Cesare Pinelli, docente di Diritto Costituzionale alla università La Sapienza di Roma. “La messa in stato d’accusa del Capo dello Stato”, spiega il docente, “può avvenire solo per alto tradimento e attentato alla Costituzione (articolo 90). Non ci sono minimamente gli estremi nel caso del capo dello Stato, anzi, c’è da chiedersi quanto siano conformi alla Costituzione certe dichiarazioni dei politici che le fanno”. lmao Jow Forumstardi
You are already submitting yourself to energy dependence to Russia and are trying desperately to appease Iran. The union has done nothing to make you independent in those cases.
about 150000 refugees came to Italy from april 2017 (official numbers) to april 2018
that means every month a small town
let that sink in
wtf

Yup, Lega is siphoning a lot of voters from FI so M5S+Lega will easily break 60% in October

Nothing yet, because we are not strong enough. Just reform the union itself for better representation.

They will not shoot them. They will just make the importing process faster.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giorgia_Meloni Dunno if it'll interest you, most of italian political figures have at least 3 or 4 entries on wikipedia that detail how they broke the law and got away with it somehow
Jack Thompson
Don't worry they will all come to Germany
Sebastian Roberts
i thought she was butthurt because the league left her behind
Well on the bright side there would be less snackbars blowing up.

>most of italian political figures have at least 3 or 4 entries on wikipedia that detail how they broke the law and got away with it somehow The ultimate redpill is that the biggest problem with Italy are the Italians, isn`t it
Isaiah Ramirez
HAHAHAHAAHAHAH it can't get any faster with these shitalian retards who let in niggers to europe for more than 50 years already

Autumn. September, I guess, unless the Cottarelli governement in some absurd way prolongs itself until springs.
I honestly don't know what the fuck they're thinking. They've just demonstrated that the electoral doesn't mean shit. Do they think this will help Europe or whatever? Surely they realize that when we vote again the situation is only getting worse
Ma infatti io mi sto chiedendo come mai tutti quanti stiano già a dire "impeach", mi fa una pena incredibile vedere italiani che usano termini specifici del legalese americano, andate a studiare cazzo
if a sea will not hold them due to government inaction, i very much doubt 'guards' at Africa will delay them, i sincerely believe it will make the process faster.
it shouldn't even be happening now, there's a fucking sea for christ sake between us and them
Cameron Sullivan
I guess you could say that for every country ever
Ryder Torres
Everybody let them in. The "refugees" would have been able to get to Germany and Sweden otherwise.
EU and local liberals would probably scream so fucking hard it'd be impossible.
Henry Gray
someone red pill me what happened?
so far I got that the two parties with the biggest share of the vote tried to make a coalition but then the President of Italy didn't like their choice of Finance minister and pretty much stopped them forming a government.
Why is this allowed?
Grayson Reed
dare i say, fpbp?

Ma poi a nominare Cottarelli? Ci vuole proprio la faccia come il culo. Ora voglio vedere gli invertiti che votano Renzi e Berlusconi
