Decree Covid, 50 M5S in the Chamber against the extension of intelligence. The government places its trust and fights

In the Covid decree – which extends the state of emergency until October 15 – there is a rule that modifies the 2007 secret services law, contemplating the possibility of renewing the current leaders of Dis, Aisi and Aise for four years. An article, according to parliamentary rumors, appreciated by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte. In this rule today a grain has exploded for the government.

Fifty M5S deputies signed an amendment to suppress this article (the decree is under consideration by the Chamber). An election interpreted by many as a maneuver to weaken the prime minister, who has remained with the delegation in the Services. The first signatory of the amendment is Francesca Dieni, but on the list there are several prominent exponents of the Movement: Francesco Silvestri, Marta Grande, Vittoria Baldino, Luigi Iovine and all the members of the defense and constitutional affairs commission. Exponents of various M5S currents.

Conte, Di Maio, Zingaretti: the war on Services divides the government

by CARLO BONINI

At this point, however, the government – with the Minister of Relations with the Parliament of D’Incà – has placed its trust in the decree. Evidently fearing a merger of the right wing and M5S dissidents in the classroom vote. Causing the outrage of the opposition but also of the majority. The M5S leaders had tried to have the proposal withdrawn. In vain.

“Legislation on Services, therefore national security, does not concern some or a few, but everyone. I am deeply opposed to the vote of confidence and want to put it on the record,” Francesca Dieni said. Of course, the right seizes the opportunity: “They trust because they are killing themselves,” Salvini said.

Di Maio: “I miss the intelligence amendment”

“I am forced again – the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Luigi Di, specified in a note May – deny the imaginative background according to which the authorship of the M5S amendment in the field of intelligence would be attributed to the undersigned “.

“It is absolutely false. It is an initiative that is completely foreign to me. And let’s be a very clear message: no one tries to put toys in Palazzo that do not belong to me in the most absolute way.”
