Salvini, from the soft tones to the daily attack against Lamorgese. The minister: "I'm sorry to be his obsession"

November 12, 2019

In the beginning he showed a respectful silence, Matteo Salvini. Luciana Lamorgese was the only one saved by the Northern League leader when she appeared – live on Facebook – to attack the newborn yellow-red government. Yet the former Interior Minister has never hidden his regret for the farewell to the Interior Ministry. Clearly, the pre-emptive attack on the former Milanese prefect is difficult. But it was only a matter of time. And so Luciana Lamorgese has become, day after day, more and more a special observation by Salvini and the League. Always in the spotlight on social (of the party and of the leader). So much so that today he replied."I am sorry that I have become an obsession for Salvini and his former undersecretaries who have been with us for 14 months, I am sorry that he has this daily craze," said the minister, who was visiting the Jewish community in Rome in the morning . And to the journalists who questioned her about the attacks, she replied: "I have been in this administration for over 40 years, I know it as my pockets and I think I know how to read the numbers. What I assumed is a role that I honor and that I absolve with a spirit of service in respect of the institutions and of Italy ". Lamorgese then focused on the waves of hatred that increasingly pollute the debate in our country, on the language shouted on social media and on the streets, because "violent language can lead to violent actions". Words spoken in a symbolic place, the synagogue of Rome. To sound the alarm about the resurgences of anti-Semitism and the dangers represented by the haters by profession.
But let's sum up the escalation of charges. First Lamorgese was attacked for the alleged reopening of the ports (in the Chamber on October 16, Salvini's deputies even hoisted signs with the words "stop invasion"). "He does not even know the data on landings, he was chosen as a stopgap", said Salvini.

Then there was the meeting at the Interior Ministry between Lamorgese and the representatives of the NGOs (always in the sights of the "Captain"). "I stand with the law enforcement agencies defending the borders", said the Northern League leader. Lamorgese was joined by Salvini to Conte, Zingaretti and Di Maio in the barrage of accusations: "accomplices, incapable or traitors". Still, she was accused of taking Salvini's credit for sending 400 policemen to Naples. Mass in the dock even for episodes of violence in Rome: "Viminale al sbando", Senator Stefano Candiani and MP Nicola Molteni, both Northern League and Under-Secretary with Salvini, said. "But wasn't he the minister until two months ago?", Observed Pd and Cinquestelle. And when the minister managed to extract an agreement in Malta for the redistribution of migrants among some European countries, her predecessor rose: "Don't sell smoke to the Italians". However, an irritated crescendo of accusations. "Lamorgese is ready for Who has seen, was the last lunge ".

"The only obsessions of the League are the security of the citizens and the protection of the police, which the Pd would like to file", the usual Candiani and Molteni replied once again today. Of course Lamorgese can claim a record. He took from Giuseppe Conte the exponent's palm most attacked by Salvini and his "Beast".
