Tee Voo
Forget Turkey teeth, we now have Trivago teeth. Jurgen Klopp’s gnashers are the only takeaway from the new Trivago advert. Presumably he saved so much on his room he could afford to go to Turkey. Italy has also ‘discovered’ house hunting shows. We’re not up there on a par with the Property Brothers, or Kirsty…

Tweedledee and Tweedledum
Matteo Salvini moves on in his bid to become Tweedledee to JD Vance’s Tweedledum.At the Lega congress yesterday he secured the leadership of his party until 2029 and declared that he wanted to become Home Secretary again otherwise there would be trouble.He is riding the crest of a particularly nauseating wave.

Let me count the ways.
The repellent Santanche refused again to resign yesterday, berating the MPs who called for her to step down as jealous, and hating her because she is rich and has 12 cm heels. Her disassociation is reaching new heights – she is being called on to step down because she is going to trial on charges…

Another fine mess
The clown show continues on this side of the pond too.They have been strenuously defending the Albanian plan which thus far has seen a game changing 7 (seven) immigrants being detained there. Outnumbered by the Italian forces of law and order, who stay in a luxury seaside resort. So far this wonderful idea has cost…

His Grandad was a fervent fascist, marched on Rome and went to Salò, and his family has never hidden its affiliations. Giuli himself was a member of Meridiana Zero, an extreme rightwing organization and has always been on the far right…

NEPOLITICS
The latest Melonian nepo craze is to appoint family members to convenient jobs with absolutely no shame. Obviously Scianel started the fad by giving her sister and brother in law top jobs in the party. Then we had Minister San Giuliano, now resigned, who was too close to his special advisor. Now the remaining cabal…

The price of a pope
Roberto Vannacci, sometime general in the army and writer of the unpleasant tome ‘The back to front world’ (Il mondo al contrario) was parachuted into the European election by Salvini in a blatant show of populism. Not only did it create serious problems for Salvini in the Lega party, with many Leghiste deeply unhappy at…

Viminale Stoat
Is an anagram of Matteo Salvini. Fortunate that he works at the Viminale and his familiar would be a stoat. His latest outing into the media concerns the results of the Russian election – roundly denounced by all his allies, the government and the western world as being corrupt. Salvini on hte other hand, given…

Art is in the safe of the beholder
Sgarbi has finally resigned, though it’s probable he was pushed. It’s also probably that there has been a deal done and he will rear his ugly head in time for the European elections to add another salary to his already groaning wallet. The evidence this time is a little convoluted, but well worth the hearing.…
