“Questions? No, thanks.” Schlein takes the Pd secretariat to Instagram, no press conference

“There will be no shortage of opportunities”, they put their hands forward from the Nazarene. The fact is that today, around 2 pm, Elly Schlein will announce the new secretariat of the Democratic Party with a nice live broadcast on Instagram, bypassing the ritual press conference.

No questions from journalists, for the new secretary of the Democratic Party who, since she won the primaries, was February 27, has never submitted to the secular ritual of the press conference.

Where there is a leader and then there are the journalists who question him. Twentieth-century trappings? Perhaps. Do you want to escape from complicated issues (starting from the war in Ukraine)? All can be. “Elly has a train to Bologna”. It runs. And then he was late to the party this night. Up until 11 pm Schlein was grappling with the sudoku of the boxes, indulging in a plate of take-away ravioli, in a restaurant under the party headquarters. There is no latest news. Except that Sandro Ruotolo will deal with culture.

As announced by Il Foglio, the strong names of the secretariat of the Democratic Party will be two figures who have not yet joined the party: Igor Taruffi, who will take over the organization, and Marta Bonafoni, who will be the coordinator of the secretariat.
