It may also be because in not many months we vote, but there is no peace in Calabria. After the saga of the commissioners, Senator Nicola Morra, president of the Antimafia commission, transplanted Genoese and well-known exponent of Calabrian grillismo, called to order even by his party, made an explosion. In the end, even he, long used to his extreme statements, admitted to exaggerating: it was unacceptable for all his participation in a speech about the relationship between Calabrian health and ‘Ndrangheta the tumor of Jole Santelli, challenged along with the controversy in the electoral campaign of the former president of the Calabria Region and vice president of the Antimafia commission, who died on October 15, just over a month ago. Her sisters have also risen, wounded in their feelings, demanding the resignation of the president of the Antimafia commission.
“It is the demonstration that each town has the political class it deserves”, Morra’s transcendent words to Radio Capital, in reference to the arrest of the president of the Calabrian regional council Domenico Tallini, Fi (“unpresentable” according to the anti-mafia commission) , but substantially expanded, albeit in a more polite way, at Santelli’s choice. With full explicit awareness: “I will be politically incorrect. Everyone knew that the President of Calabria was a serious cancer patient. Humanly I have always respected the late Jole Santelli, politically there is an abyss. The abyss that also opened under Morra, who ended up being accused of having offended the memory of Santelli, the cancer patients and also the capacity for electoral discernment of the Calabrians of whom he was sent to the Senate.
In the end Morra outlined an apology, as requested by the leader of the group of 5 in the House, Davide Crippa, when for hours the indignant chorus had also echoed on the lips of the majority politicians and the opposition insisted on resigning. But while a note of the 5 stars criticized it, Barbara Lezzi intervened to defend it: “Those who distance themselves from Morra do not speak in the name of the 5S”.
In the midst of chaos, Rai canceled Morra’s participation last night in “Titolo Quinta,” the Rai3 broadcast from which the first resignations began, those of Commissioner Saverio Cotticelli. As the live host explained, it was a business decision. “Proper choice” approved by the blue vice president, Antonio Tajani.
The opposition is appalled by the matter. Silvio Berlusconi: “The grave statements offend the entire Calabrian community and the memory of a dear friend of ours.” Again: “The majority dissociate.” The secretary of the League, Matteo Salvini, invites the senator to resign: “repulsive words”. So Fdi. I criticize the Pd. “Unbearable words. Morra apologizes to the Calabrians and the family of Jole Santelli”, the attack by the leader of the Democratic Party at Palazzo Madama, Andrea Marcucci. “Morra is wrong, the ‘Ndrangheta is the real problem”, criticizes the leader deputy of the group and leader of the anti-mafia commission, Franco Mirabelli, outraged the former speaker of the Chamber, Laura Boldrini, who accuses him of “sexism” and attacks: “Can a representative of the institutions express himself like this?”
Morra tried to cope with a clarification. But the excuses (“I have the greatest respect for the sick”) have become a new attack, this time on Marcello Dell’Utri defined as “a problem in Fi’s DNA”. In short, accusations instead of apologies. According to Morra, on the other hand, only one man can save Calabria: Gino Strada.
