Premier Giorgia Meloni's saying she
was stunned by a Catania judge's ruling striking down the
government's migrant decree is the prelude to subversion,
centre-left opposition Democratic Party (PD) Senate Whip
Francesco Boccia said Monday.
"I'm flabbergasted," he said.
"I thought the premier's words were a fake.
"They show an impatience with the third-party nature of the
judiciary and a confirmation of how much this right-wing has no
respect for the Constitution, which they in fact want to change.
"I didn't think she would do a (righting anti-migrant League
leader Matteo) Salvini thing.
"One expects the Constitution to be kicked and trampled on by
(Deputy Premier and Transport Minister, and former hardline
anti-migrant interior minister) Salvini.
"Even if a person with this profile is not a vice-premier.
"Meloni's words match those of Salvini yesterday who said we
will intervene in the judiciary. This is the antechamber of
subversion."
