(ANSA) - Milan, January 15 - Attilio Fontana, the
centre-right candidate to be the next Lombardy governor, has
said that Italy must not accept large-scale migrant arrivals,
suggesting the "white race" is in danger.
"Here is not an issue of being xenophobic or racist, but a
question of being logical or rational," Fontana told the
Northern League's Radio Padania on Sunday.
"A serious State should plan and programme a situation of
this type.
"It should say how many we consider it right to receive and
how many migrants we don't want to allow in, how we want to
assist them, what jobs to give them, what homes and schools to
give them," added the former mayor of Varese, a League member.
"At that point, when a government prepares a project of this
type, it can out it before its citizens.
"It is absolutely unacceptable to say that we have to accept
them all.
"It is a design that we must respond to, that it is necessary
to rebel against.
"We cannot accept them all because, if we did, we would no
longer be ourselves as a social reality, as an ethnic reality.
"Because there are many more of them than us and they are
much more determined to occupy this territory".
