Truce Grillo-Conte, confrontation on the M5s statute starts again

by time news

Time.news – It is the latest attempt to avoid another rift in M5s, after the clash between Beppe Grillo and Giuseppe Conte. “The road is uphill, even Di Maio admits. “It is not easy but we will find a common solution to restart this project as soon as possible”, says the Foreign Minister who yesterday to try to bring peace to the world M5s went, together with the President of the Chamber, Roberto Fico, to the residence by Beppe Grillo in Marina di Bibbona.

The mediation work, also promoted by the parliamentary groups of the Chamber and Senate, goes on. Now after yesterday’s post by the founder of the Movement who suspended the voting on the directorate and appointed a steering committee of seven, the debate restarts on the statute. A sort of ‘reset’, in a field in which Grillo and Conte have not been able to find an agreement, the players on the front line will think about it to come up with a compromise. The specter of splitting has been avoided for the time being then.

In the next few hours the team of seven (in addition to the group leaders there are Di Maio and Fico, the minister Patuanelli and “the president of the guarantee committee” Crimi) will get to work to smooth the corners. A ‘timing’ has not been set even if Grillo asked for speed. The ‘bigs’ applaud (from D’Uva to Castaldo, from D’Incà to Sibilia, from Di Stefano to the various Ferrara and Berti) and above all there is the endorsement of the former premier Conte for the operation carried out by the bridges .

The Apulian jurist stressed that he agreed, after all, before the clash with the ‘guarantor’ emerged, he said he wanted to proceed in the sign of unity, without divisions. Then the meeting between the former comedian and the parliamentarians blew up the bridges of dialogue, that “Count is not from the Movement” created an enormous distance with Grillo. In fact, however, it will be necessary to understand what will be the point of synthesis that will be found.

Grillo should renounce some of the powers he had in the old statute, especially those related to the possibility of intervening on the political line. It is true that the grillini remark how the founder M5s has taken the field on a few occasions in recent years, especially when it was necessary to decide whether to support the Draghi executive, but the former Prime Minister also underlined in the last press conference that the roles must be well defined, that no diarchy is possible.

This is the reason why even today he made it known that he will remain firm on the fundamental principles on which he has already expressed himself clearly. The fracture has not yet healed, both Grillo and Conte will await the work of the committee. But the yes of Grillo and Conte to a mediation is in any case a clarification, considering that a split – it is the belief in parliamentary groups – does not suit either of them. The polls could ‘punish’ both, it being understood that even the loyalists of the former prime minister, including several ‘big names’, did not hide their doubts about the prospect of leaving the Movement. The real game opens now but in the meantime in the 5-star Movement there is a sigh of relief.
