Magi disputes Meloni during the conference against drugs. The premier: “I’m not intimidated”

Clash between the premier and the deputy of Più Europa Riccardo Magi during the conference organized in the Chamber of Deputies on the occasion of the “World Day against Drugs”. “Drugs always hurt, every single gram of active ingredient eats a piece of you,” she says. “Even Cannabis”. And he raises a sign with the inscription: “If the state doesn’t take care of it, the mafia will take care of it”.

Giorgia Meloni, from the podium of the Chamber of Parliamentary Groups of the Chamber, says: “‘Smoke a joint’ will never be my policy”. And he maintains that “drugs are all bad for everyone, there are no distinctions, whoever says something different is lying. To say that there are drugs that can be used is a deception”. And here is the blitz of Più Europa: the signs appear and the dispute starts. “We have interrupted this series of prohibitionist platitudes to say directly in the face of the premier that after 30 years of lies, prohibition has failed. It is time to legalize cannabis”, writes the author of the raid, the secretary and deputy of + Europe, Riccardo Magi.

Meloni did not break down and dismissed the dispute as follows: “You have organized conferences for years that no one has ever allowed themselves to block. You have to accept that there is another government elected by the Italians to do exactly what we are doing”, he added . And in the end she jokes about her, caustic: “I’ve been at 3 percent for many years and I know what it means to seek visibility, I respect and appreciate them”. Continuing her speech, Meloni also criticized Netflix: “All the narration goes in the same direction: television series, documentaries, films. The message is that drugs are nonconformist, it’s fine, it doesn’t hurt. There are series that tell the deeds of a drug dealer as if he were a hero”, broadcast “on the same platform where the documentaries against Muccioli were made and broadcast”.
