L’Fiorello’s irony could not spare the celebrations of April 25th. In the episode of ‘Viva Rai2’ which closes the week, two statements caught Fiorello’s attention: “Meloni said ‘the end of fascism laid the foundations for the return of freedom’. He used the word ‘fascism’ , good: now all that’s missing is ‘anti’ and we’re set. Giorgia, I know, we can’t say everything at once, instead he said ‘the government is anti-fascist’ who had fainted. They had to take him away in an ambulance!”, said the showman amid laughter.
Yesterday was a day with some news stories: “The city band doesn’t play ‘Bella ciao’, the police intervene to make it play – a piece of news read by the showman -. The officers went there and asked for the driving licence, registration and music sheet”. We are also talking about General Vannacci again: “Just yesterday he was nominated by the League in all the constituencies. For the occasion he wrote a book on Strasbourg, entitled ‘The French are all gay’, with a preface by Carla Bruni”.
A passage also on Venice: “You know that I’m half Venetian”, Fiorello is keen to remind us. In fact, the Venetian city “fills up even with the ticket, 15 thousand have paid 5 euros for entry – he says -. However, there is also a group of exempted people: the Venetians, those who have Venetian relatives, the fans of Mara Venier, Spritz drinkers, pigeons and even those who have pigeon relatives. All of these don’t pay, basically they paid 15 thousand out of 100 thousand people, 15 thousand for 5 is 75 thousand euros. aperitif in Piazza San Marco!”, quipped Fiorello. Special guest of the episode was Elodie.
