What is in the background of the #Lega-#PiS fallout?
THREAD 1/6
#Lega is divided on the question what should be the party's future direction. There is a growing support for heading to #EPP, which puts pressure on @matteosalvinimi, who is otherwise very pragmatic in this question.

So #Salvini has more options and leeway than his #RadicalRight counterparts, but he also needs palpable results what he can present for his constituency.

Allegedly there was an agreement between #Lega & #PiS (or at least that was Lega's communication in the 🇮🇹 media) that #PiS and some of its #ECR allies will join #ID, and that will be the formal and procedural way to forge a single new #RadicalRight political group in the 🇪🇺.

And in the very last minute the #Poles realized the obvious: that this move is not in their interest. #PiS is still the leading force of #ECR, which is a far more influential political group than #ID. Support of smaller ECR members to the merger might have been weak as well.

As a result, #Salvini and #Lega lost their patience: they have other - and REAL - options at hand (#EPP) than the l'art pour l'art playing in the sandbox, which these kind of #RadicalRight jamborees without any substantial outcome really are.

This is a very good summary of the #Italian dynamics from @Micol_Fla in @ilfoglio_it (in 🇮🇹)
