And why does he get right to overrule the elected representatives to decide who should be a minister because he is Eurosceptic? So tomorrow our queen can reject Corbyn from becoming PM, if elected, because she thinks he is incompetent!

Because that's a role given to him by the Italian constitution. It's perfectly understood.

And with power comes responsibility which is to respect mandate of people. This is how madcap dictatorships emerge. And Europe will be even more extreme and nastier parties as people lose faith in the democratic process. Being a Eurosceptic should not be a disqualification

No. The responsibility is to the mandate the President of the Republic has as head of state. Learn a bit before commenting.

That only holds if there are serious questions about a minister - ethical or otherwise. Being Eurosceptic is an opinion. This is project fear all over again. It failed miserably with
#Brexit. What happens if the two parties return with a even bigger mandate and impeach prez? -
Project fear is now Project Reality. If Italians fall for the same lies some in Britain did, they'll get what we are getting. Up to them. Mattarella is a hero.
