A photo of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni upside down was published among the stories of the Instagram profile of Luca Dell'Atti, president of the Ostuni museum, in the province of Brindisi.
And the provincial coordinator of FdI, Luigi Caroli, asks for her removal from office.
The photo is published among the profile stories in which there are also some references to the foibe and the controversies on Sanremo linked to the Middle Eastern conflict.
"We are faced with a shameful gesture of unprecedented gravity - attacks the provincial coordinator and regional councilor of Fratelli D'Italia, Luigi Caroli
- and it is necessary that the mayor of Ostuni and the administration immediately take steps to revoke the task conferred by little to whoever published that photo."
"Whoever decides to fill a role - attacks Caroli - must do so in a balanced, serene manner and with respect for the institutions".
According to Caroli "this gesture made by someone who represents an institution directly appointed by the municipal administration is truly deplorable".
"We need to create the conditions for a new 'democratic viability' within the museum's board of directors. Otherwise there would be too many constraints. I immediately appeal to the mayor who can, as he has appointed him - concludes the Fdi regional councilor - remove him I am convinced that the mayor will understand the need to remove whoever published that photo without wasting time."
"An image of Prime Minister Meloni upside down: certain language is deplorable and ignoble, even more so if it comes from someone who has the responsibility of presiding over a cultural institution or a museum. I express solidarity with President Meloni and I hope that Mr. Luca Dell'Atti come home soon. Italian culture certainly doesn't need him."
Thus the UDC senator and national president of the party
Antonio De Poli.
"If a man of culture, which he should be and the conditional is a must", the president "of a Museum manages to publish a photo of a person, a woman, moreover Prime Minister, upside down, it is all evidence that
he cannot continue to hold a public office.
He must go home and do something else."
Fratelli D'Italia MP Dario Iaia declared this in a note, in reference to the photo of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni upside down published among the stories of the Instagram profile of
Luca Dell'Atti, president of the museum of Ostuni, in the province of Toasts.
