ROME – The secretary of the League Matteo Salvini, guest of Rai Radio1, jokes with the hosts: spirits are full of sugar and I’m on a diet. A son with Francesca? If it happened she would be happy, I would be happier. Curtain with Geppi Cucciari who shows him how to open a plastic bottle correctly. A toast to the Europeans… with the ‘good old’ Mojito.
The offer, in the studios of Un Giorno da Pecora, on Rai Radio1, was made by the hostsLauro and Cucciari to the leader of the League Matteo Salvini, who was reminded of that drink which in After a long time it caused discussion. The deputy prime minister played along, however, specifying that “three in the afternoon and a Rai studio” are not exactly the right context for a cocktail and adding: “spirits have a lot of sugar and I’m on a diet, so I only taste a sip. A glass in the company of any type of drug is better.”
Between one question on internal politics and another, the hosts returned to a controversy made by the Minister of Transport, the one linked to the cap of plastic bottles. On the edge of irony, then, Geppi Cucciari showed the guest in the studio the correct way to move the cap in question to be able to drink from the bottle. Salvini’s response? “Normal people don’t throw the cap on the ground.” His relationship with Francesca Verdini – they asked him – has been going on for several years now. Is it true that he wants to become a father again? “If it happened to me and Francesca it would be very happy. It’s not automatic for everyone, if it happened Francesca would be happy and I would be happier” . Finally, the Northern League leader, partly accompanied by Lauro and Cucciari, sang ‘Luci a S. Siro’, one of the songs “that Francesca adores, also because she has a veneration for Roberto Vecchioni”, Salvini explained to Un Giorno da Pecora
