Northern League secretary leaves Naples

P(ANSA) – Naples, May 6 – Northern League leader Matteo Salvini came to Naples for a rally Tuesday only to immediately leave the southern Italian city after being greeted with shouts of “fool, go away”. The anti-immigrant party’s chief was visiting Naples as part of a tour ahead of the May 25 European elections on pet topics like leaving the euro and stopping illegal immigration.BRThe spell on the stump is also intended to raise support for a referendum revoking controversial pension changes introduced by the 2011-2012 technocratic government of Mario Monti. Upon arriving in Piazza Carlo III, just outside the city centre, Salvini was greeted by residents shouting insults such as “Fool, go away, you are the true swine, go wash yourself with fire”. The League leader answered reporters’ questions and then immediately left the city by car.BRNaples residents’ vitriol was in response to a tweet made by Salvini following Sunday’s Italian Cup shooting of a Napoli fan in Rome. The match, which Napoli won 3-1, was delayed for almost an hour before the head of Napoli’s ultras, Gennaro De Tommaso aka ‘Genny a carogna’ (Genny The Scumbag), gave the OK for the game to go ahead once he was reassured that no fan had been killed.BRSalvini tweeted that “a state which gets laws from Genny the Scumbag while in the presence of (Italian Premier Matteo) Renzi and (Interior Minister Angelino) Alfano is a failed state.” Both Renzi and Alfano were present at the stadium.BR/P
