Biography

Born in

Italian Chamber of Deputies for the first time in 1994. At the time, he was the spokesman of Gianfranco Fini. From 1996 to 2000, he was chairman of the bicameral Commission supervising the RAI
.

In April 2000, Storace was elected

Berlusconi III Cabinet
.

In March 2006, Storace was involved in the Laziogate scandal, leading to his resignation from the government. He was suspected to have illegally exploited informatics mean to investigate the memberships of the new party founded by

Italian Senate
in Lazio, where he was at the head of the party list.

On 3 July 2007, after having continually criticized the leadership of Fini at least since 2005, Storace finally left AN on 16 November 2007. One of the motivations of the criticism of Fini and AN was what Storace saw as the repudiation of the values of the right. In November 2007, he founded his brand new

national-conservative party named The Right
.

Storace ran for president in the 2013 Lazio regional election but got 29.3% of the vote and was beaten by Nicola Zingaretti. On 21 November 2018, Storace stipulated a federative agreement with Giorgia Meloni in view of the European elections and with the aim of creating an alternative conservative and sovereign movement to the League. He later dropped out of politics and returned to journalism.[5] On 23 January 2019, he was appointed editor of the online newspaper Il Secolo d'Italia.[6] He is subsequently became deputy editor of the newspaper Il Tempo.
