The Prime Minister relaunches the agenda on immigration, the South, and electoral law. 'Italy will no longer ask anyone for permission.'
Giorgia Meloni celebrated in Bari the longevity record of her government, which has become the longest-lasting in the history of the Italian Republic. The speech, delivered on the port stage at sunset before thousands of people and allies Lupi, Salvini, and Tajani, lasted about an hour and was punctuated by the tunes of Rino Gaetano.
Meloni described stability as 'the first major reform,' allowing the country to plan and strengthen its international weight. She claimed credit for results on employment, security, and public finances, attributing the record to the resilience of the center-right coalition.
From the stage, she revived the proposal for an electoral law to choose the coalition, program, and prime ministerial candidate, with the goal of ensuring five-year governments. She also addressed immigration, the South, and femicide, closing with the Mameli anthem and a message of not giving up on Italy.
The Meloni government today surpasses previous longevity records, all held by center-right administrations. This milestone comes at a time of internal debate within the majority over upcoming electoral deadlines, with allies like Salvini and Tajani recently expressing a preference to complete the natural legislature, against hypotheses of early elections.
The Bari speech fits into the electoral reform path being pursued by the center-right, which aims to reintroduce elements like preference voting and to stabilize governments, avoiding 'overturns.' Meloni explicitly links the government's longevity to its ability to influence the European agenda, citing migration policies as an example where Italian proposals have become 'European law.'
The choice of the South as the location is not accidental: Meloni presents the Mezzogiorno as the 'locomotive of Italy,' claiming GDP and employment growth above the national average. The stability record is thus used as a platform to project government action into the future, transforming a temporal milestone into a political lever.
