'Landini's words on Florence disgusting' says League

(ANSA) - ROME, FEB 16 - The ruling rightwing League party said Friday that CGIL union leader Maurizio Landini's words apparently linking workplace accidents deaths to the government's reintroduction of subcontracting amid a Florence disaster that is feared to have killed at least six workers in the Tuscan capital Friday were "disgusting".
    "The words of Maurizio Landini, who comments on the accident at work in Florence also blaming the new procurement code, are disgusting: the secretary of the CGIL ignores that the new rules were wanted by Europe, so much so that Italy was at risk of infringement, and that they have nothing to do with the tragedy," read a League statement.
    "The ideological hatred of the CGIL does not stop even in the face of tragedies," said the second biggest member of Giorgia Meloni's government.
    CGIL is Italy's biggest and most leftwing trade union federation.
