Trial in Grillo jr, balkanization in the 5 Star Movement
The link between news and politics is subtle, difficult to find. But sometimes there is. Even if it remains in the background. The news arrived in the afternoon of the indictment of Ciro Grillo, son of the founder of Movement 5 Stars Beppe Grillo, accused of sexual assault against a young woman along with three other friends, could also have political consequences. Between pentastellati there is little desire to speak, but in the other parties of the majority there are many to hypothesize that at this point the probable nervousness of Grillo senior for the trial of his son could lead to further tensions with the political leader Giuseppe Conte.
It was only a few days ago that the clash on the “penultimatum“There are several presences in Rai and open dossiers in the Movement, starting with the election of the new group leader in the Chamber. It is inevitable that a flare-up of tensions between the founder and guarantor of the 5 Stars and the former premier would cause a ‘further balkanization of the five-star parliamentary groups, internally divided among the governmental groups of Luigi Di Maio, the contiani, the left of Roberto Fico and who regrets the old Movement and looks to Virginia Raggi and to Alessandro Di Battista.
The next step, being the M5S the first group at the parliamentary level, is also a tension in the executive, especially in view of the approval of the Budget Law. Not only. On January 18, the elections for the new begin President of the Republic it’s a M5S further torn would make the game even more complex, confused and difficult to solve. There is also concern in the Democratic Party, engaged in the very difficult construction of the so-called Olive Tree 2.0 and which needs a strong and not delegitimized Count to prepare the electoral alliance in view of the 2023 (or 2022) vote.
