The examination of the motion presented by the M5S against the undersecretary of Culture Vittorio Sgarbi involved in an investigation into a stolen painting begins in the semi-deserted Chamber.
But Sgarbi is not in the Chamber.
The other undersecretary for Culture Gianmarco Mazzi is seated at the government benches.
The motion is illustrated by the 5 Star MP Arnaldo Lomuti.
"Thinking of attacking political adversaries using the falsities of anonymous letters or the actions of the judiciary specifically solicited with fake journalistic investigations is a practice worthy of the most grim justicialists
.
It is surprising that the PD
, a party which has also suffered the media pillory against many of its illustrious exponents who were recipients of simple warnings, and who for years has been subjected to the well-known 'shit storms' on social media by the 5 Star Movement, which builds its consensus on hatred,
is now complicit in this squalid delegitimization operation
" .
Thus the Undersecretary of Culture, Vittorio Sgarbi replies to the 5 star parliamentarians.
"I do not accept lessons in 'morality' from those who, like the Grillina deputy Vittoria Baldino, entered Parliament in 2018 as a lawyer by presenting a tax return of less than 5 thousand euros. Miserable attacks by Silvestri and Baldino and a political use of investigations preliminaries born from a defamatory campaign by their propaganda organ
, Il Fatto, and from a broadcast, Report, which built a castle of accusations made up of suspicions, insinuations and blatant lies, signed by two reporters who provide their services on social media alongside well-known opposition figures, such as Alessandro Di Battista.
It's not journalism, it's political struggle."
M5s, there is a real emergency on culture
"An entirely political battle is being played out on the Theater of Rome and on culture in general which is damaging to a sector that should be fundamental in a country like Italy but which is talked about only for the names and seats. Let's face it: that of the political occupation of cultural institutions is not a topic of today and does not have a single political colour. What is astounding is the brazenness, the arrogance and the absolute lack of respect on the part of this right, which does not problems in trampling on the rules and shame in order to place his own. What does Sangiuliano have to say on the background regarding the salary of the new director and the unprecedented methods of assignment? Cases of politicized appointments follow one another, from Verona to Rome , passing through the 'Piccolo' of Milan where none other than Geronimo La Russa was placed
