July 12, 2020 Beppe Grillo has posted on social media a "sonnet" dedicated to Virginia Raggi entitled 'Virgì, Roma nun te merita' (Virginia, Rome does not deserve you). In the text, in Roman dialect, written by Franco Ferrari , the mayor and "all honest people" are invited to abandon this "beautiful and slutty " city. "Virginia, take a suitcase, your son and your husband, we're leaving these sewer people." The "sonnet" is a hard 'j'accuse' to the Romans who take it out on "this poor 'Christ'". An attack also on former mayors of the capital and some entrepreneurs. "But you enjoy spitting in the face of a clean and stubborn mayor, one who does things."

After various controversies and positions, reported below, the comment from Mayor Virginia  Raggi also arrived : "Franco, thank you very much. I love Rome with all my heart: this keeps me going together with the affection of all of you. obstacles, boycotts, fires, sabotages in recent years have not been lacking - and there are still those who row against change - but we Romans are stronger ". So in a post on Facebook the mayor of Rome comments on Franco Ferrari's text taken from Beppe Grillo on his blog. "Ps - he adds - I don't like those 'sewer people'. I know you are referring to those who steal or set fire but, if you can, take it off". "I am proud of one thing, in my role I am the mayor of all Romans, especially those who criticize me", concludes Raggi. 

The first to distance himself from Grillo's post was precisely an elected pentastellato, the president of the Capitoline Budget Commission, Marco Terranova : "I apologize to the Romans, never, never would I ever allow myself to apostrophise them, especially collectively, with epithets such as infamous or sewer people. " Tobia Zevi follows him , one of the many local Pd exponents who would like to run in any primaries, who says he is "offended and indignant at being treated like this".

"It is understandable that one year after the elections, Beppe Grillo needs to give the mayor Raggi a good service. Grillo needs the sonnet to be able to pass the change of line and candidate. The insults to the Romans who do not understand and they do not appreciate that mayor's 'pora donna' and for this reason they are called 'sewer people' and 'rompicojoni', they are a heavy stage find. Outside the theater, the failure of four years of government remains, every day more tangible ". So the deputy Riccardo Magi  of + Europa Radicali.

"In short, Virginia Raggi was discharged by Beppe Grillo, I would say definitively. And she was discharged in the worst way: placing the responsibilities of a fearful, immobile and harmful administration on the Romans and Romans. The unrepeatable insults to the Romans are the icing on the cake , the arrogant blow of the wing of an improvised ruling class, unable to recognize its failure. It pains the insult in Rome and the Romans, to the wounded and trampled pride by those who have used the city as a national springboard betraying every expectation and all hope Rome will soon have the role it deserves, that of a large modern and European capital ". The senator of the Democratic Party Monica Cirinnà writes on Facebook  .

"Sewer people. The Romans, in a large part of the suburbs, who in June 2016 brought the 'town' Raggi on the Capitol in triumph, have become sewer people. Virginia was one of them. Now they are the problem. A scornful somersault politics to try to defend the indefensible. It is really sad to read on Beppe Grillo's blog words so offensive and of moral contempt for those people that the M5s was born to represent against the 'caste'. Beppe Grillo became the Marquis of Grillo in his consideration of the people. Mayor Raggi should publicly apologize to all the citizens of Rome for what was published today on the website of the leader of his party. There are less shabby ways to leave the scene ". This was stated by Stefano Fassina, councilor of SpR, promoter of Roma Ventuno.

"The insults against the Romans by Beppe Grillo, called 'sewer people' because they are guilty of not wanting a Mayor who is proving to be the worst of all for how he is leaving Rome, are truly unacceptable and to be sent back to the sender. , now we are also mocked by those who made their fortunes by swearing at the politicians of the past but who, in the test of nine, proved totally inadequate to handle even the simplest things. We, unlike them and the rich Grillo, we do not swear even if many Romans believe we would not be spared as they are more and more exhausted by this wicked management that causes more and more inconvenience and damage. Raggi, if he really loved Rome, should immediately distance himself from Grillo and his ignoble offenses and insults ". Francesco Figliomeni, councilor of Fratelli d'Italia and vice president of the Capitoline Assembly declares it .

"Grillo, here it is not a question of honesty or dishonesty, but of ability or incapacity. Anyone who has not been able to govern Rome, like Rays in recent years, must have the good sense of" pija 'and suitcases, and, annassene ". It is the Romans who do not deserve a calamity like Virginia." Mariastella Gelmini , leader of Forza Italia in the Chamber of Deputies, writes it on Twitter .

"The era of Virginia Raggi in Rome ends here. I don't think that Grillo's post, with those unacceptable and shameful insults to the Romans, wanted to achieve other goals, if not to liquidate an incapable and unprepared ruling class that he himself has fielded. " So on Facebook the Roman deputy Pd Marco Miccoli . "Moreover - she adds - favored in the success by our mistakes. But be careful, because to win in Rome, it will not be enough to denounce or attack those who insult you. You will need much more".

"Grillo today in fact distrust Raggi, when will he do it with Appendino too? The M5s mayors are a disaster, and Turin knows something about it". This was stated by the leader of the Moderates Giacomo Portas , independent deputy of Italia Viva. This is echoed by the Roman coordinator of Iv Marco Cappa : "And so, after sinking into the liking of the Romans, Grillo also unloads it" in his own way ". The Raggi administration represents a failure declared in the Capitol on all the dossiers. Beppe, Rome doesn't deserve a mayor like that. Keep it close to your Virginia ... ".
