All the Sunday papers in Italy feature on their front pages the two Conservative leaders side by side beaming. Giorgia Meloni is clearly a lady after Donald Trump's heart. As she arrived at Mar-a-Lago, he told a waiting crowd, This is very exciting. I'm here with a fantastic woman. She's really taken Europe by storm.

Apart from discussing some bilateral issues, the two enjoyed a dinner and a film. To have such naturally good relations with Donald Trump is rare for a major European leader, so many of Miss Maloney's fellow prime ministers will be hoping she could help avert a trade war with America.

In fact, according to its Europe minister, Italy could act as a diplomatic bridge between two worlds, the EU and the USA. Miss Maloney is seen as a potentially strong partner for Trump, given her conservative credentials and the stability of the right-wing coalition she has led for more than two years. And one other thing.

Unlike other leaders who found themselves the target of Elon Musk's invective, Georgia Maloney has forged a close relationship with the tech billionaire and close Trump ally.

And there's a poem by somebody called C. Jackson, which goes, And they don't have to whip us anymore, or hang us from trees, they just whip us with a prison cell, and hang us for 60 years for our first cell.
