«Salvini had nothing to do with an Italian project. The League whistled the national anthem»- Corriere.it

“Renzi was an upstart of the Left, he had nothing to do with the Left, like Salvini he had nothing to do with an Italian project, because his was a local project”. This was stated by the President of the Senate Ignazio La Russa speaking at the Tricolor Festival of the Brothers of Italy in Catania. «Unlike them, we have precise points of reference, we are a party we hold dear and we have a leader who is the daughter of our ideas», he argued, «if Renzi goes to command the ex-communist party and Salvini goes to form a national party that whistled the national anthem, we have a leader who is the daughter of our ideas and they are clear ideas, a hard core made of heart who will not die”.
