Carlo Calenda's threat to his wife and children was clear, a few days into the holiday in Turkey and the group already seemed exhausted: “These people are exhausted and fifteen museums, twenty archaeological sites and six cities await them.” Those of them who had thought their father was exaggerating had to change their minds almost immediately. The leader of the Action was serious, risking an internal revolt on the umpteenth day of what he alone now calls a holiday.
The former minister's unfortunate children must have known that Turkey offered a wide range of cultural sites. But they could not even suspect that he intended to take them on very in-depth tours of megalithic walls and temples. The last social media update of the Calendas' vacation tells a dramatic scene. The Action leader's photo shows his children finally sitting in the shade, staring into space masked by sunglasses, the face of someone who still blames himself for having missed that invitation from his friends to the beach.
“Today, second visit to the archaeological area of Ephesus at 40 degrees in the shade,” Calenda says with vague sadism on her social profile. “We were very close to “Mutiny on the Bounty”, but in the end the crew held on.” Who knows for how long, they ask in the comments. There are those who are now moved by the condition of the children and invite Calenda to give them a shock “give these children a gift, an emotion related to their age”. A hypothesis currently very far from Calenda's plans. “Take them to the sea”, some heretics dare. And there are those who hypothesize that to avoid revolt, Calenda has called a constituent assembly. But keeping Action's discontent at a distance after the failure of the European Championships seems to be a health boost for the moment, compared to the family climate during a cultural holiday that seems never to end.
