Former conservative parliament
speaker Gianfranco Fini said Tuesday he is willing to work
against his erstwhile allies inspired by French rightist Marine
Le Pen.
"At the moment in Italy there are two political forces that
call themselves right-wing," Fini told La Repubblica newspaper.
"There is the (Northern) League ... that I would define as
a minority right by vocation nourished by two spectres, two
fears -- immigration and the European Union," he said.
"And then there is Forza Italia," the party founded by
ex-premier Silvio Berlusconi, he added.
Fini denounced the FI as "the great Forza Silvio club,
bowed to the interests and daily moods of Berlusconi".
