Election campaign in Italy: Potential future Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni spoke out clearly on Monday evening against gay couples who are allowed to adopt children from d’Italia.
Meloni specified that the best possible “is to have a father and a mother, stability in the relationship, which is what our law requires”.
Exchange of blows with the top candidate of the centre-left alliance
This led to an exchange of blows with her opponent, the Social Democrat Enrico Letta, in the debate duel in the newspaper “Corriere della Sera”. He replied that children above all need love. “But love doesn’t matter here,” Meloni replied. “The state does not standardize love, Enrico Letta!” To which the centre-left alliance’s top candidate said, “Exactly, but you’re about to standardize love by saying what love is and what isn’t.”
Melonie: “Yes to the natural family!”
Meloni has repeatedly and clearly expressed her views on this in the past. “Yes to the natural family! No to the LGBT lobby!” she bellowed during a performance as a guest of Spain’s far-right Vox party in June.
Recently, the subject has strangely blossomed: Federico Mollicone, the culture officer of Fratelli d’Italia, asked the public broadcaster Rai to refrain from broadcasting a specific episode of the children’s program Peppa Pig (in German: Peppa Pig). In this appears the polar bear child Penny, who has two mothers. “Peppa Pig is an animated series for three-year-olds,” says Meloni, who fears that concepts are “forced on” children.
Lesbians and gay men are not allowed to adopt children in Italy
In Italy, lesbians and gays are not yet allowed to adopt children by law. However, it is possible that one of the partners of the same-sex couple adopts the biological child of the other.
Center-right alliance beckons clear majority in parliament
Meloni is the big favorite in the elections on September 25. With her centre-right alliance – in addition to the Fratelli, the right-wing Lega and the conservative Forza Italia also belong – she beckons a clear majority in parliament.
