Blanket from Maneuver it’s short. But among the center-right there are those who are trying to extend it, between one blanket and another included in the “reported” amendments proposed by the coalition parties. The gong rang last night. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni today, in a new summit at Palazzo Chigi together with Giancarlo Giorgetti, Antonio Tajani, Matteo Salvini and Maurizio Lupi, will determine the political synthesis. The party’s “wish list” is getting thinner.
FLASH
However, workers remain. Like the tax abolition that Salvini asked for to be extended to tax regulations. This is written in black and white in the Northern League amendment which passed its first examination in the Senate and cost the state coffers 365 million euros. While Forza Italia calls for a rollback of the tax on short-term rentals and a crackdown on tax credits, the Fratelli d’Italia pushes for social security funds for newborns and the Noi Moderati on cuts to school books. Extensive program. It is important to find the key to today’s problems, in the summit meeting. On whose table the Northern League’s request will be put will be discussed in the next few hours: new cuts Rai license costs, from 90 to 70 euros. The amendment that Il Messaggero could have anticipated was completed last night, but discussions have been going on for days behind the scenes between party colonels in the Senate, starting with group leader Massimiliano Romeo, and Salvini himself. A real surprise: the members of the Northern League have actually included in the proposal on local TV a reduction in the license fee for the entire year 2026. The cost, like other years: 430 million euros. It’s easy to turn it into one of the highlights of the meeting. Also because Forza Italia is famous for going against it. In the past, Tajani has always voiced his opinion by asking that these funds be diverted to things he considers more urgent, ranging from health services to minimum pension funds. Moreover, cutting public TV licensing fees is unlikely to make the Berlusconi family happy, as it forces Rai to increase advertising revenue to the detriment of Mediaset, its main competitor. Last year, this case became a real political case: Forza Italia put up barricades and finally gave the opposition a vote against the scissor cuts, which in fact failed in 2025. Now the case has emerged again. Salvini is confident in the popularity of the move and intends to use it to send a signal to his voters, in the midst of the Pilkada election campaign. Meloni and account holder Giorgetti, once again, had to mediate and explain the margin of intervention. Tight, for an 18.7 billion maneuver that makes the tightness of the financial balance the key, while Italy will exit the EU’s excessive deficit violation procedures. At the majority table, the parties present themselves partially after their calculations are completed. That is, a proposal to seek financial coverage for each of the “flags”.
FUND HUNT
How can you make cash? For the League, the main road once again passes through banks, with proposals to further increase IRAPs at institutions. Not only that. Supporters of the Northern League are asking for a tax increase on the revaluation of gold and here the aim of the engineers working on the document is to raise funds of up to two billion euros. Meanwhile the prime minister’s party relaunched a tax on non-EU packages, a move that responds to a European directive and risks punishing China’s big e-commerce platforms that are market leaders. Among the FdI report is also an anticipated amendment by Messaggero, clarifying the Italian State’s ownership of the Bank of Italy’s gold reserves. An ancient fight for Italian rights that the League is now ready to support. Claudio Borghi: «This is my historic proposal. I will support it.”
