Deputy Premier and Interior
Minister Matteo Salvini said Friday that he would not be made to
look a fool amid a row between his League party and its
coalition partners, the 5-Star Movement (M5S), over the
government's 'fiscal peace' plan.
"If there was something wrong, there was no need for this
can-can: (Premier Giuseppe) Conte or (Deputy Premier Luigi) Di
Maio could have lifted the phone and everything would have been
changed," Salvini said in a live broadcast on Facebook.
"It is necessary to close ranks, and bring together the
League and the M5S - respecting the contract of government, but
without messing about.
"I waited 24 hours without saying nothing and I'm being
patient.
"However, I won't be made to look a fool.
"If someone in the M5S has changed their mind, we'll change
everything from top to bottom.
"But the truth of the story is in the documents. Those four
little pages are at the premier's office with the notes of the
the premier taken down by Di Maio".
