Lega, another farewell: Lombardy councilor Bastoni goes with Bossi’s Northern Committee: “The party of commissioners no longer represents me”

He waited a few days, but after the first farewell to the regional group of the Lega in Lombardy by three of its exponents, it is now the turn of another strong name: “After almost 32 years of having seen me belong to only one party, the Lega, I have decided to join the new group called the North Committee within the Regional Council”. To say it is the Northern League regional councilor, Massimiliano Bastoniwho thus becomes the fourth member of the new Northern Committee group, which takes its name from the current founded by Umberto Bossi and which is made up of Antonello Formenti, Federico Lena and Roberto Mura.

“My choice comes after a few days of profound reflection. The conditions that led me to join the movement that fascinated me in politics in my early twenties no longer exist – writes Bastoni, Milan city councilor for many years, in a statement. famous for his old electoral campaign with the slogan “Sticks against immigration” – I believe that issues such as autonomy and the defense of regional identities should be placed first on the political agenda, something that in the League at the moment I don’t see it possible. I would add that the lack of involvement of the militant base in the fundamental choices has meant that the party of commissioners no longer represents me. Reiterating my full support for Attilio Fontana, I confirm my adhesion to the ‘Comitato Nord’ group,” he Bastoni concluded.
