Matters came to a head this week as the parties in Mr Draghi’s broad coalition struggled to agree on a resolution to put to parliament ahead of the European summit on June 23rd and 24th.

The election is due next year and, as it approaches, two linked factors will become increasingly significant. One is public opinion.

The second factor is the threat of gas shortages next winter.
