Margherita Of Savoy Puns

May of 1955

A cause of some controversy, though an important premise on which the current Government draws it's support, in the days following Giueseppe Pella's election as Premier in 1953 it seemed the Christian Democrats would be unable to command a Parliamentary Majority, however, enter the National Monarchists a party which no one had expected to enter Government but due to their strong support in the South would become the ones to grant Pella the majority he so desired.

Though this was not all for free, in return for supporting the policies of Pella Monarchist Party Leader Alfredo Covelli demanded Christian Democratic support in passing a law to remove restrictions placed on Males of the House of Savoy prohibiting them from entry into Italy. Initially it seemed that this promise might have caused a splinter of the Christian Democratic party, as left-leaning members could not support such a move less than a decade after abolishing the Monarchy in the first place, eventually a compromise between Pella and leftist DC member Amintore Fanfani secured the integrity of the party solidifying Pella's position, at least for now.

As such it was that on the 4th of May 1955 the Italian Parliament in session were called to answer an important question: Should the Male Members of the House of Savoy be allowed return to Italy and offered Italian citizenship?

As one might expect the left was in uproar, both the Italian Communist and Socialist Parties mandates voted no unanimously, but also the Social Democratic party which is part of the Government coalition opted to reject the notion of allowing the Savoys a return to their homeland.

Ultimately the motion would prove itself succesful by a slight margin, as the Christian Democrats and National Monarchists who together carried 47.1% of Parliament mandates were joined by the Liberal party in addition to smaller regionalist parties and, controversially, a small number of neo-facist Social Movement mandates bringing parliamentary approval of the motion up to 53,3% and causing it to pass onto the Senate where due to the largely Christian-Democratic and Monarchist permanent members quickly approved of it following which the President of the Republic signed it into law.

In the days that followed the National Monarchist Party officially sent out an invitation to the

Hiya,

I'm currently teaching myself the Savoy Shim Sham and I came across a move of which I do not know the name and I was hoping you guys could help me out. I find that if I know the name of a certain move I can more easily remember the routine itself, but I can't for the life of me figure out the name

The move in question happens at 1:12–1:19 in this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zpkkjm4Nt4&t=72sand for a clearer view, Sharon Davis does it in this version at 1:07–1:14 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubP_hXgKJa4&t=66.

It has a bit of a latin feel because of the hip movement.

EDIT: I think we solved this conundrum and we're pretty sure it's called 'Hip rolls'.

I have a copy at home but trying to find a drink out of it is fine if I remember the name, but near impossible if I can't.

My initial searches didn't turn anything up. If nobody knows of one, I might transcribe my copy and make one.
