«I would regretfully accept the news of a gay son: as if he were a Milan supporter , different from me. A straight father would like his son to be like him."
The statements of the president of the Senate, Ignazio La Russa , interviewed by the "Belve" program broadcast on Rai 2, are intended to make people discuss.
The exponent of the Brothers of Italy answered questions relating to the nostalgic "memorabilia" of fascism kept in his home: " I reproach myself for having shown the Duce's bust on TV: my sister wants it , she told me, our father l 'gave to us. Scoop, I gave it to him , I don't have it anymore». "Considering that on this, on fascism, the world does not separate the important things from the context in which things are said, so I have to be careful," he added.
La Russa also spoke of the government and of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni: "The aesthetic level of women on the right has dropped, that of quality and capacity has increased," she said. Returning also to the early days of the executive: « That bullshit from Berlusconi on the day of my election was not for me, it was for Giorgia who had set limits on the ministers, Ronzulli in particular, but more than for Giorgia it was for FdI. It's the first time I've said it », he clarified, dispelling any possible controversy with the leader of Forza Italia. Finally, he expressed his opinion on the Donzelli case : «If he hadn't done what he did, the debate would have focused on the question of the Democratic Party's visit to Cospito. It was not useful, from the point of view of communication, but no ethical problem".
