Italo Bocchino provokes: "Meloni deserves the Nobel Prize for economics". Heated clash on In Onda

A phrase that divided the studio and the public: “Let’s nominate Meloni for the Nobel Prize in Economics.” It was uttered in a decisive and provocative tone by Italo Bocchino, a guest on In Onda on La7. In front of the hosts Telese and Aprile and the former minister Elsa Fornero, Bocchino defended the economic results of the Meloni government, citing the increase in stable contracts (+300 thousand), the purchasing power of families (+0.9%) and the reduction in inflation from the peak of 11.7% to a “healthier” 1.7%. The reaction? Immediate. Fornero freezes him: “The economy is far from healthy.” Telese reiterates: “The numbers are not enough.” But Bocchino insists: “These data speak for themselves. It’s time to recognize it, even if you don’t like it.”
