    Meloni's Brothers of Italy party launches saucy carbonara crusade in the European Parliament

    Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni’s party has cooked up a letter to President Metsola criticising the sale of "Italian-style" products in the Parliament’s supermarket in Brussels.

    After having accused the European Commission of "cancelling Christmas," Italian conservatives are now turning their ire against the European Parliament, which in their view is guilty of allowing the sales of faux "Italian-style" products within its premises in Brussels.

    Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like running.trail, education and hyperphantasia. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was in the dark.

    But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!
